I remember a student who plagiarized a history paper. He found an old research paper on the internet and thought he could get away with using it. He didn't change the formatting or the references at all. When the teacher checked for plagiarism, it was so easy to spot. There was also a girl who plagiarized a story for her English class. She took it from a magazine but forgot to change some of the very specific details that were unique to the original story. It was really obvious to the teacher. And a really funny case was a student who tried to plagiarize a math proof. He didn't understand the proof at all but copied it anyway. When the teacher asked him to explain it, he was completely lost.
There was this guy at work who always stole people's lunches from the fridge. One of the co - workers filled a lunch box with really smelly old fish. The lunch - stealing guy took it and opened it in the break room. The whole place stank, and everyone knew it was his own fault for stealing lunches. He never did it again.
A group of friends went camping and realized they forgot to bring a can opener for their canned food. One of them had an idea. They used a rock and a big spoon. They banged the edge of the can with the rock until it was dented enough, and then used the spoon to pry open the can. It took some time but they managed to get their food open in a rather unconventional way.
One story I heard was about a doctor who accidentally left a patient's chart in the waiting room. It had all the patient's personal medical details, and a kid picked it up and started reading it out loud. It was a total HIPAA violation, but also quite a funny situation in a very 'oh no' kind of way.
One funny insurance fraud story is about a man who claimed his car was stolen while he was at a movie. But the theater's security camera showed him driving away with another person after the movie. He thought he could fool the insurance company but got caught red - handed.
There was a medical student doing a presentation. He got so flustered that he mixed up the names of two very different diseases, which led to some really confused looks from the professors and students alike. It was a classic case of nerves getting the better of him.
At a law school party, a group of students were playing a game where they had to recite a legal principle if they lost a turn. One student got so flustered that he mixed up two completely different laws and made up a really absurd 'new law' on the spot. Everyone burst out laughing, and it became a running joke among them for weeks.
Sure. There was a student who copied an entire essay from the internet. But he was so clueless that he didn't even change the name of the author in the sample he copied. When the teacher asked him about it, he had no excuse at all.
Once, in a science class, a student was asked to name a gas that is lighter than air. He confidently said 'hot air'. The whole class burst into laughter. It was so funny because he was actually right in a way, as hot air rises due to being less dense than cold air.
A little boy tried to help his mom bake a cake. But instead of adding sugar, he added salt by mistake. When they tasted the cake, it was so salty that they all made really funny expressions. Later, they all had a good laugh about it as the boy's mistake turned into a funny family story.
Sure. Once there was a man who tried to teach his parrot to say 'Hello'. He repeated it over and over. Finally, the parrot said 'Hello' but in the voice of his wife. It turned out the parrot had been listening to his wife all day long.
