The Boldest Things I've Ever Done

Some people may have heard of this story but no-one knows that it was actually me who started it.

It was during my philosophy exams. I had an eccentric professor who was renowned for his unorthodox teaching methods.

When I sat down to take the test after months of studying  Kierekgaard, Socrates, Aristotle and  Plato, I looked at my sheet of paper which simply asked one question:

'Why?'

I looked around me, hundreds of students scribbled down pages and pages of philosophical notions that explain on the meaning of existence. Suddenly a realisation dawned on me that was too genius to pass up.

I smiled, clicked my pen and wrote a simple two word answer:

'Fuck you.'
