Cheating roomates

17 Oct 2004

In a post about Google copying MSNBC Jeremy Zawodny comments that he turned in a roomate who tired to pass off Jeremy's program as his own in college. The comments are amazing, and the number of people who are "astonished" that one would turn in their own roomate. I too had a roomate who was a cheat for a while. I should have turned in him. His racket was a little different, as an underage engineering student from a privileged family he'd provide the beer for "study sessions" at the condo his mommy and daddy bought for him, and then every single time he'd talk one of his "friends" into leaving a paper behind and would spend the rest of the night copying the answers. Don't think I want to travel on any bridges he designs.
