Before there are any hole pokers, it was very blatent copying, had the windows on his screen set up identical to mine, (50-50 W7 style on XP between Word and Google(seemed more efficient at the time)) Oh, and a word for word copy of my version of the research we were told to do. Now, I always write informally, and in my own words, he had the word for word of MY version, same order of paragraphs (which I had jumbled up a bit), same size etc. So I was getting pissed off and decided to cath him out. I was quite proud of how I did it, changed it to wingdings and touch typed it, literally 3 second after I changed it I heard a "What the fuck are you doing changing your writing to that?" to which I replied "What does it matter to you? Fuck off and stop copying my work." His work from then on was copy/pasted from Wikipedia, and he told our teach I was being racist. Whom then frogmarched me straight up to the principal (who I was on reasonably good terms with at the time) told her what had "happened" and her face and perception of me changed instantly, from "You're a good lad, I see potential in you but stop being so damn lazy" to "You disgusting little boy I thought better of you" The following conversation consisted of me laughing, at all the things I had supposedly said, mostly because they were quite inventive. So after half an hour of interrogating she gave up. The following few days consisted of intetrrogations from my head of year and the deputy principal, whom were men so ended up as more of an "I'm right, your wrong just admit it so we get get this over with" from both sides. So then I had a word with my teacher who reported it and had both our research sitting on her desk, and I asked her to compare them, proved my point, and was home free, with the "victim" shunned by the rest of our year, and me with some respect for winning against the teachers. All's well that ends well
