Today, my brother decided to help me artificially age some of my artwork by singeing the edges slightly. Apparently "my brother set fire to my homework" isn't a valid excuse. FML

I set fiiiiire, to the paint. Watch it burn as my grade fades awaaay.

I'd have thought that would've worked.

Looks like that idea went up in flames.

Try explaining the situation at hand to your teacher. That sounds completely viable to me.

Coke & tea both work to age documents .

That's a pretty darn clever excuse.. Wasn't good enough I guess!

Wait, did you go with the idea of letting him set fire to it?

To be fair If I was you're teacher and A student said "My brother set fire to my homework" I would be suspicious. However I reckon the teacher should give you a few days extension

Maybe don't hold the paper so close to the flame.

That could actually be a believable excuse. It's a shame it didn't work.

"The Guiana pig ate my homework" didn't fly either, even though I had the chewed up remains to show my teacher.
