Spectacular failure

See also Fail.

Failure so complete and so final that it is awe-inspiring. Not something that occurs accidentally, you have to exert some effort to pull this off.

Methods

• Be somewhat mentally ill. Use UW writing assignments as an opportunity to threaten and intimidate your professor. This is a risky method, as it may result in incarceration as well as a grade of F
• Do not, under any circumstances, show up to class more than 2-3 times per semester.
• Use essay assignments as a means for unmitigated self-expression. That is, don't bother writing about anything even tangentially related to the class. Write about what you want to write about.
• The same goes for exams. Exam is an opportunity for you to express yourself. Draw a picture or a diagram.
