30 Times Teachers Were Brilliantly Outwitted By Their Cheeky Students

If there is one thing we learned during our student years, it's not only about all the lessons and homework that have been assigned to us—we have also mastered the art of different tactics to escape the consequences of not passing on time as well. Let's face it: not a lot of life and adult values have been taught to us in colleges and universities, but the experiences we have sure did train us to be more clever with our excuses.

Almost all of us have experienced missing a deadline, and maybe, instead of just owning up to our mistakes, we actually come up with creative strategies and excuses that may or may not have given us a gateway to escape our professors' wrath. Some students even do their homework while others are already submitting it, and while that may indeed be a stressful time, the adrenaline rush you get while doing it can be quite addicting!

Now that most of education has gone online, students have learned many other ways to deal with a missed deadline: they send corrupted files, even viruses, make excuses about their health, and so much more. Well, who can blame them when the good ol' "My dog ate my homework" excuse does not work here anymore?

A Twitter user, Mike Chase, shared a funny experience online that led people to narrate their own stories as well, involving outsmarting their teachers when it was time to pass their assignments. Check out the best replies below!

Mike shared about that one time he was two weeks late for a paper, so he had to use this crazy tactic that, for some reason, worked.

This led the people on Twitter to respond with their own experiences as well!

Admit it: we all have done some sort of sketchy things when we were students at least once in our lives. Needless to say, it's all part of our experiences as students for more than a decade, and they certainly are memories that we will never forget!
