Entry: F*ck MLA Apr 16, 2005



Aemilia’s rules for citing stuff*:

Cite after the first and last sentence of every paragraph (excluding the introduction and conclusion) and cite after every other sentence.

What you cite doesn’t really matter. As long as the title sounds like it has something vaguely to do with your topic, you’ll be fine. Teachers/professors never actually look up to make sure the facts correspond to the right page of your sources.

If you’re paranoid or your teacher is evil, keep the (presumably library) books until after you’ve gotten your grade back. After all, how many copies of Catullan Provocations: Lyric Poetry and the Drama of Position (or whatever) can there possibly be floating around in your area? Not many, trust me. And besides teachers are too broke and overworked to bother down verifying your sorry-assed paper.


*Aemilia cannot be held responsible for the repercussions you suffer following said rules.
