Why would I waste my time reading that, then thinking about it, and then giving you an answer. That would be a huge waste of my time. Sorry, but I have better things to do.

If you have questions ABOUT your homework/exam, then ask them. But please don't ask other people to do it for you...

This must be the new way to cheat on doing Homework. If I help you now you will grow up to be a dummy, so I will help you save yourself from pain. You do the easy answers and I will help you
with the hard ones.

HEY! I'm not helping you cheat just so you can graduate and get a job and suck at it so we all pay in the end.
