Bring with you a bag of McDoubles and be like ... "I got these cheeseburgers man!" then he'll be like "WHAT?!" ... and you say "... I said, I got these cheeseburgers man!"

You are not familiar with the rules then, you have to cite everything even if its your own work.

Re: Got caught plagiarizing
How people still get caught for plagiarism is beyond me.
When I was in high school, college and uni, all we ever heard was how you should not plagiarize and you will be caught. It's not hard to take a wall of text, manipulate it and make it your own OR better yet, just wrap some quotation tags around it put the source at the bottom.

You can actually plagiarize your own work and get in trouble for it.

Re: Got caught plagiarizing
you have the right idea. just say you accidentally passed the unfinished version. this is you first offense anyway so they'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

Very good NBA starter
Re: Got caught plagiarizing
How does anybody plagiarize from wikipedia when the stupid cites are at the bottom of the page. Is one more additional cut and paste too much work? If you were my student I'd fail you.

yup. rewording and rephrasing is key. got me through several essay-intensive courses in college.
what is it 3 or 5 words in a row that constitutes plagiarism?
