This story happened a few years ago. I was sharing an appartement with two friends, Jessie and Eve. Even if we were not studying at the same university as them, we all met in our first year because we worked in the same café. In our second year, we all moved in together because we hated living in our respective dorms.
One day, Jessie and I came back home after partying a bit, we were a bit tipsy. We found Eve super-stressed studying in the living room. She’s usually stressed before exams, but that particular day was kind of exceptional. She was literally convinced that she would fail a midterm exam, that she didn’t understand anything, that even if she studied non-stop until the exam, she would still fail it. And that she couldn’t fail that particular one because it was a mandatory class, etc.
Jessie with her weird humour, just asked her: “Is the TA a man? Yes? It’s easy. Just send him nude in exchange of the exam’s answers.” A joke that Eve didn’t find funny. But Jessie kept insisting: “Seriously, do it!” To which Jessie just took a piece of paper, wrote the email address of the TA and said: “You know what. *You* send him nudes. If you ever get the answers of the exam, I’ll owe you one.”
