A guy plagarises for three years of a univeristy degree, and then complains that nobody told him that cheating was wrong? And then sues? And even says “Oh, but I spent sooooo much money on this degree”?
Form a queue for the spear-throwing at the moron once we get him chained to a wall
Alrighty then. Am I first in line?
Goody. I choose the Alsatian boar-spear, and I’ll aim for his left ear.
What a :wally !
And I’ll whack him with a woomera.
Geez, the Very FIrst Thing you learn at uni (apart from the location of the local drinking establishment) is that plagiarism is a Very Serious Thing that will result in your failing, no ifs and absolutely no buts.
Double :wally
How can a human being that actually attended school to any extent be ‘unaware’ that cutting pages of material out of any source (Internet or not) and then ‘adding my own points’ doesn’t fly?
What an idiot. Not only should the school keep his money they should sue him for taking up space another student could have had.
Fucking hell, that is a fantastic idea!!!
is tempted to email Canterbury and suggest it…
Just make sure to correctly attribute the idea to me. 
I was going to give some defence to the student in saying that my experience was that UK University rules made it somewhat unclear as to what was considered plagurism and what was considered fair use of read background information. But reading the OP linked article the case is so clearcut is to be laughable if it weren’t also sad.
I wonder if I could get me an English degree with the book I just rote, I call it Duke of the Rings, its about some midgets, a guy called Arathorn and a sorcerer called Gondalf.
Pass me a throwing trident will you…
Too late, it’s all copyrighted to me. Now, if you were to plagiarise the idea…
Alrighty then. Am I first in line?
Goody. I choose the Alsatian boar-spear, and I’ll aim for his left ear.
What a :wally !
HA! Fell into my trap. The idea was originally plagiarized from someone else. When THEY sue YOU what are you going to say you stole it from me fair and square?!?!?!
Alrighty then. Am I first in line?
Goody. I’ll choose the 1920s style Death Ray. :wally
Mmm. That is some tasty schadenfreude. Excellent vintage.
Oh, and I choose this handy-dandy harpoon gun. Whale ho! <ka-chunk>
“I never dreamt it was a problem”?? Bullshit. He’s just pissed he got caught. Moron.
Hand me my javelin…
Miller, thanks to you, I will be saying “Whale Ho! Ka-chunk!” all over the place for no good reason. I think it may get me slapped.
Hmmm. Iffy title… how about The Earl of the Bracelets?
That alone should keep him from graduating.
Uhhg, everybody does stupid shit. Maybe not this stupid, but stupid nonetheless.
It’s when they show a complete lack of shame, embarassment, or remorse and turn around and sue that I just want to dropkick them.
Ah, but did you see this article?
It took me a couple of minutes to get that.
Naw. Baron of the Bling-Bling!
You could call the Gandalf-clone Dumbledore. Now all we need is some names for the little people… no, wait, that’s been done.
