Adam: I'm sorry. My answer is still no. It's wrong to write students' papers for cash. *kachunk* Man 1: My tweed coat didn't seem to intimidate him at all. Man 2: He was impervious even to the charms of my calabash pipe. Man 1: A grendel for the 21st century.

And that Grendel didn’t even flinch when the Beowulf was at the door. Adam is not that easy to dis-arm.

I think I need to go back to bed. At first glance, I thought that was Adam’s stomach sticking out, and when he left, I was like “Why is his stomach still there? What IS that thing?” As I am typing this I see I’m not alone.
The English thugs are too refined for the likes of Adam, who would just sit around in his underwear, drinking coffee and having writer’s block all day anyway. However, those geezers should be ashamed of themselves, helping kids cheat themselves out of the expensive educations their parents worked hard for and sacrificed their own needs to give them.

If these guys are merely underemployed professors rather than unemployed, I wonder what would happen if one of their students turned in a paper that they recognized as their (the professors’) own work? If they flunked the student for plagiarism, would they have to return their fee? They could hardly grade it down for substance, since it would be just what they were looking for. (If they deliberately produce substandard papers for sale, they’d likewise be obliged to return the fee, I’d think.)

+1 on the bald head/stomach confusion!

Neat optical collusion with the head/stomach. I don’t think these guys are unemployed or underemployed. I think they are fully employed by the fake term paper company. They were probably faculty candidates that could not get tenure anywhere.

Well, judging by the fact that their company chases the almighty dollar through less than ethical means, I’m surprised no one realized that they were out of work professors because they believe in capitalism instead of the socialist dreck spewed on most campuses these days.
