Mom wanted me to send an email to my teacher because of my somewhat poor showing on my math test (not exam). I sent her this, along with a short explainer. It probably won’t end well, but who cares at this point? Make a half-assed attempt, apply some snark, and move on. The story of my life. Now where’s my summer?

Why didn’t I think of this?

What’s the difference between a test and an exam? Some of my college professors would call them exams and some would call them tests, both worth the same though.

Make sure you show your mom this post. I mean, if you're gonna get in trouble, might as well go the full distance.

Why? Why would you do that? Swallow your pride and send something genuine and attempt to make a decent relationship between you and your teacher. Nothing bad could come of that, but all you’re doing with this shit is looking like an ass and making yourself “that guy” in the eyes of your teacher.
Don’t be that guy.

We’re on good terms, and the picture was only to lighten the situation. I did give a genuine explanation on why I did so shittily, and she appreciated both.

Tests in High School are just quizzes.

Probably because I have other, more important coursework to do.

There’s a difference on how the points are allocated toward... Like a test grade might be worth less than a exam

Very much so in this case.

But then that’s a quiz, not a test...

Funny story. My wife is pregnant but she doesn’t look pregnant. Proud of myself for marrying a woman who pulls off pregnancy fantastically well, I eagerly and thoughtlessly told her “Hun, you don’t look pregnant, you look ....” And I stopped mid-sentence, because it just clicked in my head what I was about to say. She turns around, disapprovingly, and replied “I look fat?”
Realizing I already dug my hole, and there was no escaping it, “yeah, fat. But you don’t look pregnant, so that’s good!” I had no repercussions until yesterday when I remind her of happened.
Moral of the story, if you’re gonna get in trouble, might as well go out looking good.

At least it’s better than trying to say it by saying “You don’t look pregnant, you look... generous.”
