Tell your classmates, friends, family, and teacher that you're not doing the assignment. Record how they react. Turn it in. Get an A. | ||

I, on the other hand, was more creative. I went to the food court at various times through the night (not close enough that the same people would be there), walked up to the cashier (different restaurant each time!) who would normally take my order, and instead just stood there and made small talk. Talked about the weather, the sports teams, whatever. Depending on how patient the cashier was, somewhere between 2-5 minutes later, I would just say "see ya" and walk away without ordering anything, like it was the most natural thing in the world. The results were varied between annoyed, amused, and just plain confused. Be sure to also note the attitude and anxiety of the people behind you in line. I had everything from a guy who was about to kick my ass for wasting his time, to a group of ladies who thought it was hilarious, including a girl who thought I was made of balls and gave me her number after I walked away. Enjoy! | ||

Compliment random strangers. Say how you feel about them out loud to them (if it's not an insult). Thank everyone for everything (waiter, bus driver, McDonald's staff). | ||

But I agree, I get weird looks sometimes. Not from the people I'm talking to or complimenting (if you're serious about it, they very much appreciate it), but from others. | ||

Top comment if you're lazy: Answer a phone call in your psych class. Proceed to talk loudly. This is revenge for professors giving every psych class the same stupid fucking assignment. Bonus points for: -Shushing the professor if they interrupt you -Standing up, putting your hand over one ear and talking even louder if people start booing -Very obviously placing the phone call yourself (turn on the dial pad tones?) | ||
