  • I had a Lincoln mkz for a week after someone hit my car in a parking lot, insurance said I was covered for a premium sedan.

    Worst car I’ve ever driven. Handled like a boat, was all flash but everything felt cheap and “jiggly” when I touched it.

    Learning at the time (2012) that this was a 35k luxury car was mind-blowing. You couldn’t PAY me to drive that car again. My 20k Prius blew it out of the water in everything but acceleration, and even then it wasn’t behind by much…


  • Most take-home exams specifically state whether you’re allowed to use other sources or cooperate. If not, many course syllabi or even campus codes of conduct have onerous defaults.

    Instead of ragging on op for adhering to practices they may have had no hand in mandating, we should try to help them.

    Having been on both sides of such academic misconduct, if your hands are tied in terms of the assignment parameters, I think reissuing solo retests is fine. This is likely a chronic issue though, and I’d be curious to know if you have any options in next steps should anyone fail.
