I don't really know what (if any) level of humour would be appropriate for this sort of thing, I imagine it's supposed to be serious and you might not know the demeanour of the person assessing it.

The last time I did anything remotely like it was a group project at school for Mr Young, where fart jokes and drawings like Spoodie's done with all your felt-tip pens as the cover sheet would virtually guarantee a high mark.

Hehehe

Well its true, I have no idea who will be marking it so aiming for any certain kind of humour is difficult. There are two independent markers though. It is supposed to be serious, but something mildly amusing in a witty and subject-related way would be good, rather than shaping the words into a penis.

HAhaha - brilliance

However, its hardly epic. Its 43 pages long, but is only 11,000 words, pretty much the same as everyone else on my course

Hahaha, a good effort there, but unfortunately too late.

The Dr Strangelove parody won in the end.

My head is appropriately sore today, having handed the dissertation in yday afternoon. :boogie:
