Let's wait for the "I made mistake, pls forgive me, can I get second chance?" posting to begin.
The excuses are getting tiresome. I stopped playing bingo long ago after the card filled up so rapidly. I seem to remember one guy managed to churn out 9 different excuses in a single thread. Would love to see some new and original excuses - no one is going to believe the old excuses anymore.
My flat mate, whom I had recently pranked by pouring laxatives in his morning coffee, resulting in him getting a written warning from work after spending the first 4 hours of his day in the toilet and causing half a floor to be evacuated because of the smell, wanted to "get one back at me" and posted a plagiarized post.
I clicked the "reply" button, and then had to step away from my computer to deal with a rogue spacecraft which had landed in my garden. The otherworldly noises and lights scared my dog who ran across my keyboard, simultaneously pressing "Ctrl + V" with his paws (pasting in a phrase I had recently copied and properly attributed for my PhD research paper), followed by "Tab" and then "Enter", posting the content.
I, in fact, didn't plagiarise at all. What I wrote was so true, so mind bending, so completely astronomically ground breaking, that the inventor of the first time machine tooks my words, went back in time, and stole credit for himself!
