Water is composed of two gins, Oxygin and Hydrogin. Oxygin is pure gin. Hydrogin is gin and water." |

"...exactly the way a bowling ball wouldn't.", or to quote the original as written by Douglas Adams, "...they hung in the air exactly the way bricks don't." -Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy. Whadda rip. |

Her date was pleasant enough, but she knew that if her life was a movie this guy would be buried in the credits as something like "Second Tall Man."
I liked this one.

The little boat gently drifted across the pond exactly the way a bowling ball wouldn't.That's actually pretty good. |

Simply because it reminds you of something doesn't mean it's plagiarism. It's even quite possible that the author in question has never heard of Douglas Adams in which case even if it was the exact same phrase it's simply independent discovery of hilarity.In other news, "Her vocabulary was as bad as, like, whatever." Pure brilliance. |

as long as it was intentional, i think this one is really clever:"Her vocabulary was as bad as, like, whatever." |

The fact they were written sarcastically makes them less funny. It would be better if high school students actually wrote them |

"From the attic came an unearthly howl. The whole scene had an eerie, surreal quality, like when you're on vacation in another city and "Jeopardy" comes on at 7 p.m. instead of 7:30." -These kids are pure genius.. |

i love you neeley. that what i was going to say, it's freaking plagerism! the analogy is: "the little boat floated across the pond much as a bowling ball would'nt". the douglas adams quote: "the ship hung in the sky much the same way bricks don't." |

Let's try this again people.As phreakphit pointed out already, these were not "taken from high school essays" but are from The Washington Post's weekly humor contest from the Sunday Style section. For those who figured that they were too cute / clever / (un)intentionally ironic - that's why.

isnt this a repost?
oh well i liked this one the mostLong separated by cruel fate, the star-crossed lovers raced across the grassy field toward each other like two freight trains, one having left Cleveland at 6:36 p.m. traveling at 55 mph, the other from Topeka at 4:19 p.m. at a speed of 35 mph. intentionally stupid im sure but HILARIOUS!! |
