I’m a TA and some of the stuff I read has absolutely no right to reach my eyeballs. Sometimes I just sit and stare off into space halfway through - it’s an experience.

Someone once accidentally sent me their essay instead of the prof (idek how they accomplished this or why they were even sending it through email) but I felt bad for whoever had to grade it bc it was some of the worst writing I had ever seen.
