ACTIVITY: In-Class Pretend Authority

NOTES: This is another "authority" piece. My Creative Writing teacher had the class write down a couple of sentences on things we knew really well. Then, we had to "pretend" to know something that we didn't know. When this exercise was going down, I was sleep-deprived, so I had messed up this second part of the activity. Luckily for us, it was not to be turned in or graded. I ended up jotting this random philosophical thought down. I hope you like it.
