ELPE: All First-Years FAIL

Note: This article is hosted here for archival purposes only. It does not necessarily represent the values of the Iron Warrior or Waterloo Engineering Society in the present day.

Don’t believe the rumours that all the first-year engineering students flailed the EPLE, you should never trust rumours! Although, this time around, the rumours dew happen too be troo….
Why did all of the first-ears flail? We could claim that high scool didn’t prepare us properly for essay writing, however I think we’d be better off claiming an all-out mituny! A miuiny against biased markers who want engineers too flail (We’re alredy brilliant – that’s why were at Waterloo – so why let us excel in english to?)!

Oh yes, we are all true warriors of the written word!  Sure, a lot of students wix up their mords, but not us first-ear engineers! No siree, Bob! We know our aynonyms from our sntonyms, alliteration and exaggeration go hand in hand, and smiles? We simile at their common attempts to be like complex metafours, as though they long for a deeper, more profund literary porpoise.

For any essay, we always argue our augments with extraterrestrial examples, never backing down from a challenging theesis… but what about boaring ones? You see, the problem with the EPLE is not the edvanced literary skill of those being examined, no, its the questions! Questions so boaring they put us all right out of steep – creating a thesis from those EPLE starter questions was just a mountain to step for us engineers (to be) to clime without a properly inspired moose!
Engineering students enjoy taking up challenges in the face of edversity, but if the drool soaked EPLE’s handed in where any indication to the markers, there was no adversity to face, and thus no point to stay awake.
Well, know you now the true truth, and not just the rumoured truth (there’s a differanse, you now).We first-ears flailed for lack of fascinating subjects to argue.
