"You're learning a language so that you don't have to learn a language" 😂
I didn't know cheating would be so much work! Brilliant yet again!
Yea
Well if one language is french..
At this point he's cheating *on principle*.
My main reason for learning both sign language and more code was to communicate in the classroom, so 😅
I had some friends at Uni who were learning sign language. They told me this was the hardest language to learn, because it has a completely different grammar than any spoken language we know.
No joke, I did have 2 students cheat with sign language in a class once. It was multiple choice and they were checking their answers against each other. Didn’t seem to do them much good- they both still failed. It helps if you cheat off someone who actually knows the material, haha.
I imagine if two kids learn sign language to cheat, they prolly won’t be any smarter together than alone lol
@@darkithnamgedrf9495 They learned a whole ass language, they aren’t book smart but their certainly some time of clever
@@candypg1 I mean sure, you probably only need to learn a couple phrases in sign language to effectively cheat, but if you feel you need to do that, you likely don’t know the subject very well, and neither would the one you are cheating with
@@darkithnamgedrf9495 Than my point still stands! Not book smart but still definitely clever
It was multiple choice so they probably only needed to learn the signs for A through D maybe E five signs ain't going to be hard to learn at all
I think you should consider an 'Arms is politely bewildered' playlist at this point. You do it so well.
It's becoming a theme alright
Sign me up! There's some mild outrage too
Great idea!
It can go with the Foil is utterly shocked and flabbergasted playlist
@@foilarmsandhog Together with the 'Foil with moustache playlist' please! Can we give some more ideas? 😂
I never cheated at an exam, but the organisational skills he is showing for this are amazing. So many brilliant solutions.
I once spent a week putting together a small program in my graphing calculator to get me all the formulas I could need. Unlike other people who only copied them straight which made it easy for the teacher to find it, my version was kinda hidden and you had to know where to look. A true work of art.
Just one little problem: the exam was "no calculator allowed" so it was entirely useless.
Silver lining is that I made it myself so I actually memorized most of the formulas instead of what others had done, which was just copying someone else's cheat.
@@rhadamantesomething3020 Wow, that's quite impressive. I am so awkward I would never be able of pulling something like that off. Too bad you could not test your system, but did it help you memorise the subject?
@@rhadamantesomething3020 I've had exams in... college? Last year of highschool? In which they specified GRAPHING calculators would not be allowed. Others were fine.
To be fair I don't think they were worried about students programming their own formulas, the graphing calculators just had what we were being tested on built in.
And then the prof just go "open textbook" exam....
@@gabsie7224 That's the fun part: it most likely did.
Just realised foil didnt even have to cheat for the Spanish exam. He was fluent enough to understand a native Spanish speaker and reply in a convincing manner. This is dedication people😂
I can barely understand that man and I'm a native speaker.

In the context of this video he understood a native speaker, because his body double is from Spain.

@@C00kiesAplenty I'm just saying that accent is so thicc that just being fluent in spanish isn't necessarily enough to understand that guy
My dad's job is to help kids stay in school. Literally. Whenever one cheats, he is super happy. At least they care! And usually accidentally learn a lot as you need to choose what material to attempt to smuggle in 😂
Now that is a great way of looking at it
I was always making cheat sheets but that also meant I was basically making super compact summaries so by the time I was done making these I accidentally learned everything and decided not to bring them. However, I still somehow really sucked at making summaries.
@@Jeffrey_van_der_Post I usually make cheat sheets with the most basic Formulars and words, sometimes just random words put behind each other, but those words are the most important that help me to get to the correct information that I should be knowing. And I can at the very least memorize a few words so before the exam I take a last look at those few words and then I don't need the sheet during the test xD
My school allows cheat sheet to be bought in exams because they think learning formulas by heart is useless. The important part is knowing how to use these formulas. In college, the school let us see a pool of exam questions beforehand so to study all we have to do is able to answer every question in that list and we'll get 100%. The new education system seems to prioritize understanding over memorizing which is a good step forward.
@@ociany11 Finally adapting to the modern day. No need to memorize something when everyone has access to search engines, the important part is being able to use it. That's good to hear.
"They'll never know 😈" the look of absolute evil in Foils' eyes is hilarious! Amazing sketch lads, and BTW Arms ur not an 🍑⚫
whats a peach.. moon? rock?
@@foilarmsandhog asshole..... it was meant to say asshole 😅 I was trying to keep it pg
@@foilarmsandhog aw man you should've cheated.
@@foilarmsandhog I think it says arsehole!
I cheated once as a kid. I did it so well, nobody knew. Not even the kid I was stealing from. By the time I reached the teacher's desk, the guilt had completely taken over every single thought I was having. So I put it on the desk and immediately confessed. Apparently I looked so distraught with myself, my teacher didn't think a punishment or even a telling off was necessary 😂
Never did it again. I'm my own worst guilt tripper.
If you're reading this Mrs O'Leary, I'm sorry.... again 😆
Seriously cheating is way more of a hasstle than studying. Actually doing it is tough and the fear of getting caught makes it even worse. Don't even get me started on the guilt its just too much to handle. I don't understand why despite all of that one would still cheat
@@leomata7096 I agree! I guess this is why the sketch is so good 😂
It's matter if time you'd get used to it, I think I cheated way too much I don't feel the guilt anymore 😂😂
@@leomata7096 unless you’re a narcissist/sociopath, because to those people lying is easier than breathing.
This is the middle school version of crime and punishment
I sat Maths GCSE for a laugh a few years ago (the council offered them for free) and I cldn't bring my see-through water bottle because it had 1000ml printed on it. So that Lucozade bottle wldn't stand a chance in England 😂
And as made clear in the sketch... writing cheating notes is a good study aid. Our teachers encouraged us to write them and then leave them at home.
Yes - a clear water bottle with the label removed was the only thing we were allowed. Lucozade with the label still on would never have made it anywhere near the exam hall at my school.
At the university, we were allowed to bring 1 sheet of paper with hand-written formulas to the physics exam. So much effort went into that but in the end? It almost didn't matter
@@Yorick257 Same for my university days. Some exams were even open note. If you didn't know the material, how to apply the formula, where to even find it in the book you failed. The cheat sheets just helped the well prepared students. And open note exams were always harder too.
You can cheat utilizing a type of refraction method that can make things invisible. Just tilt and only you could see it. They should probably just remove all water bottles then.
Brilliant! The escalation of the cheating methodes from classic to ludicrous match the rising desperation of the helpful friend perfectly.
Thanks! good bit of editing to get there, we cut a bunch of stuff!
'You're learning a language so's you don't have to learn a language'
I felt a chill, as if a million classics students cried out all at once, and then shrugged and went back to their drinks
Why do I find myself feeling sorry for Foil's character and his obvious anxiety lol. Very funny sketch though!
Ah we can all relate to that blind panic
This is so true! I've done my fair share of invigilating and the best/worst one I saw was when someone had reduced an entire essay to a tiny size, had it printed on a bit of sticky back plastic and wound it round a pen. In the exam, they peeled it off, stuck it to the table and covered it with their hand. Unfortunately, they kept lifting their hand to check it!
Congrats on the gig!
If you caught it, it was a bad job.
@@An_Attempt Very true!
whats your best?
@@travisdingolaite6184He’ll never know mwahwahwaha!
@@travisdingolaite6184 The ones I didn't know about I guess! I did like notes shoved into a toilet roll holder in the nearest toilet!
I’ve been loving all the vintage sketches you’ve been putting up, but nothing beats the excitement of a fresh sketch, hot off the press! 🤩
Absolutely, every thursday is fresh day
@@foilarmsandhog freshly baked sketch from scratch right out of the oven with a crunchy spicy crust
I also love how these guys still manage to value quality over quantity. There might be RUclipsrs just pumping out a ton of easy-to-make videos, but the amount of work FAH does to make me laugh consistently every single week is staggering. ❤
@@aliya_punkenglish you saying this makes me wish for a visit from FAH to the Off Menu Podcast. All my favourite comedians from TV and RUclips together at last. Heaven.
@@alasdairduncan3 Never heard of Off Menu podcast. Thanks for the tip.
Please tell me Foil wrote the script of this sketch on his arm so he could cheat and not learn his lines!
We did a bit of that alright, haha
I'm looking forward to seeing this on a bigger screen to look for signs of that. Hoping it's Dickens on his hand 😉
Writing on his arm thinking "This is my job" 😂
Haha, I had almost the same path! I made my cheat sheets really well and was proud of how well they turned out, so much that I would even help other kids in writing theirs. I spent so much time rephrasing the needed knowledge into the most concise version of itself that I actually learned all of it by heart. I always brought the cheat sheets with me, but using them was too much of a hassle and adrenaline, so I just used my own memory. I felt so smart then
Same story here. I put so much thought and effort into condensing the knowledge into short bits, I memorised all in the process. As a student, I used this technique too and compressed the content of the books and scripts into my own little handout. Was a very effective way to learn, but off course, I did not bring my notes to the exams then.
Cheating yourself into learning - Love it! 😂
Fahntastic Statistic
Hog is great at playing children. He portrays a child (or teenager) in approximately 6.8 percent of the sketches on the RUclips channel. On the other end of the spectrum, a total of 17 sketches feature him playing an elderly person, which is 4 percent.
Loves a good vulnerable character
Foil has the teenager/university age energy, but I personally find Arms slightly better in actual child roles, like for characters aged 12 and down.
Nice!!!! Love this FAHctoid 😀
Who's greatest at playing women?
Ooh nice stat. Must have taken a while to put together. Thanks!
Always amazed by Foil's ability to learn multiple languages and musical instrument for sketches! Very original and funny sketch!
When I had exam stress as a kid, my mom always told me to prepare cheat sheets but not to bring them with me. It was just a good way to study while tricking your brain into thinking you were doing something naughty and, therefore, cool.
This is actually very good advice because some classes actually let you have a cheat/formula sheet. And by deciding what is the most important material to fit on one piece of paper or one side of paper you learn the material. It’s a form of summarizing and you can’t summarize if you don’t have a good enough grasp of the material.
@@jacobharris5894 Yeah, that was a pleasant surprise when I became an undergrad.
I had a teacher who would allow us all to "cheat" on tests (we were allowed to bring cheat notes with us in class) as she figured we'd at least have to study enough to condense the material down for the note. Brilliant tactic actually.
(But she did contribute to my less than rigid morals regarding cheating. I cheat at all tests if able to, and my proudest moment was when me and my twin switched places for tests, as we had four tests during the day at different class rooms. So basically we only studied for two each, and took those tests, then pretended we were eachother and took them again. 😬👍)
That’s brilliant
Sneaky
Nice one.
Cheating isn't necessarily unethical imo. If you can provide a good, quick answer to the question, it doesn't really matter what method you used unless you blatantly just copied the answer from someone else.
Exams are kinda absurd to be honest, how often do you sit in a room, on a timer, completely isolated from the world and with no access to the Internet or outside help? I know it's meant for testing, but the setting in which you do it is so far from any real world scenario that its a bit of a joke. A person that knows everything vs a person that can quickly find the answer to anything are pretty much as valuable today.
@@Skumtomten1 Agreed. They should test on how accurately you can find certain information within a limited time. That is far more useful.
You are fantastic! As a 70 year old Trinity graduate, your humour is the same as ours was 50 years ago. Timeless❗️
And still is. I’m going to meet class-mates in Dublin for the first time in 50 years this summer. And you remind me so much of us .
Loved the ending. "They will never know" 😂😂😂 Perfect dialog delivery 👌. I really like when Arms plays the voice of reason.😂
1:25 You're learning a language so you don't have to learn a language. Made me crack up.
That last part reminds me of a video where someone described studying as cheating by putting the answers in your brain 😂
Tho I don’t always comment, I am always here 3am to watch the sketches. This was hilarious to watch Foil stress over cheating haha. The lengths his character will go to cheat is pure dedication. Fair play. And an extra happy birthday to Hog!
Good to hear from you! NOW GO TO SLEEP
@@foilarmsandhog STOP YELLING AT PEOPLE, IT'S NOT ARMSY-LIKE
I’m also a US east-coaster. During 2020, I had sleep apnea and was using a machine that woke me up at 3am. The machine was awful, but it was worth it to be able to comment on these videos. 😂 Occasionally that happens for other reasons like I fell asleep at 8pm or the week I was passionately finishing writing a novel and my body was awake with excitement. Lol
A soliloquy on the back of a crisp is like the extreme sport version of English literature. Is Foil like the Bear Grylls of cheating?!
I'm a teacher, and this is up there with Armstrong and Miller! (Your Exam Invigilation sketch was one of my favourites, but I guess we have a new champion).
Also, for real, I never cease to be amazed how much effort pupils put in to avoid working...
University is where cheating really becomes an art form. Instead of the classics you have to think of creative solutions to problems, which means you really have to engage with what you're doing. This means you're probably going to remember most of the material better than if you had studied normally. I remember for a bunch of my finance classes we were required to use a specific type of calculator. A calculator that I quickly realized had quite a bit of unused internal space, just spread throughout the casing. So in the prep to a final at the end of my first year, I carefully removed and rearranged some of the internals and cut a small slit in the bottom of the calculator where the case would cover, both open and close, but not whilst you're opening it. I could get a standard index card folded in half into this opening. In the process of figuring out how to fit the information onto the index card in a way that I could easily read it without completely removing the card from the internals, thus minimizing the chances of getting caught, I learned that material so well that I never had to actually use the cheat. So whenever I had a big final, that became the way I studied.
Some great line delivery in this! Love Foil's 'no' at 00:19 , the 'what does this mean?', the Spanish and the very confident delivery of the Vicar Street date. Very good. Glad I don't have to go through this stress anymore!
"QUITATEH EL BIGOUTEH POUR FAVOUR" I nearly fell off my chair laughing 😂 whoever came up with that you rock 😂

"The one place they'll never find them" 😆😆😆 He should teach those tricks to (other) kids, they'll be impressed!
If Gary hadn't cheated on his exam at Expressions College, maybe that eyeroll would have been a bit cleaner. Cheaters never prosper, Gary, they get caught in the end. And you're still out ten grand.
So. Much. Money.
Why is it always so much money for such niche subjects 😂
Excellent throwback!
@@SamFAHntha highly specialised things are always going to be expensive. If any Tom, Dick or Hoggy could teach eyerolling, the fees would come right down. But then the demand would fall away too.
I love that they have 2 characters that look like Foil and they’re actually acknowledging it in the sketch. That’s a new one on me. 😂
I am a teacher and thanks lads for keeping me up to date 😂
WAIT WHAT
WHO LET THE TEACHERS IN 😂
And is graffiti cheat already a thing at your school? 😂
@@ankavoskuilen1725 thankfully they have restricted themselves to standard cheat sheets and body art 🤣
Check for watches. Not smartwatches , mind you; I mean regular cheap watches. One of MY students gutted the electronics and PAINSTAKINGLY wrote a cheat sheet on a piece of paper glued on to the watch face
This comment section has been infiltrated by THE ENEMY!
Foil will have to remember to not actually drink the Lucozade given that he is not used to so much caffeine as he told in one of the streams. :D Otherwise he'll be way too nervous and buzzing to actually remember all the hiding spots of the things he wrote down and hardly able to sit calmly through the exams.
ha! we were only saying that to him on tue
I was just about to comment that Foil drinking Lucozade was the only unbelievable part of the sketch. 😂
This is giving me Red Dwarf vibes when Rimmer writes the whole of his text book on his body then panics in the exam and just leaves a handprint on the paper! 😂
Brilliant sketch lads!
I remember that scene 😂 Haa brings back memories
Ages ago when I was in school, I was always terrible with abstract formulae, so I prepped a cheat sheet once for a maths test, and put the formulae inside a transparent plastic pen. To fit them on a small piece of paper that could be wrapped around the ink insert and be legible still, I had to rewrite them several times so... when the exam came it turned out I had known them by heart and didn't need the cheat sheet XD. From then on, preparing fake cheat sheets became part of my study routine for all the annoying stuff that you just had to memorize - just preparing them was enough to learn the content, and trying to arrange them on the smallest paper possible added a fun part to the otherwise super boring process. Still, I think in today's world forcing kids to memorize formulae is silly, because in many cases Google will give you not only the formula, but the calculated answer, and it's not exactly a survival skill either... If I were a teacher I'd let them use the internet on tests and make the questions more about asking the right questions, filtering fake info and applying the knowledge in practice :P.
I can so relate to this. Even my mom always said: You should write as many cheat sheets as you want, just don't use them. Cause when you've written it down in this condensed form, you've already half learned the thing anyway
This idea is good but it remains a probability that the Internet & Google & Co in bad moments dont function...God save us then🤔
@@alexakammler6440 Good old books are still there for such an event, and largely the same usage rules apply. It just takes longer to search and browse, and you're a bit less likely to find complete nonsense ;)
@@yuaelt yes, but you have first to learn to multiply, to work with angles, to think with numbers....I'm not old fashioned and I think is very good to learn free for formules, but a basis should be learned in the school as a child. What is maybe not necessary is to learn every battle year but a parallel history, with geographical AND historical correspondances...And poesie by coeur learning is also so good for every times🤗
@@alexakammler6440 Of course, as well as reading. But those are skills, not memorised facts that you'll likely forget in 3 weeks and never really need. I simply think we outgrew the Prussian schooling system years agio but somehow didn't realize it.
I love this sketch, very original. Arms, you guys have done a great job with the production quality on this one - especially the lighting, sets and camera angles! 😀👍
Can't take credit for that, Foil was the set King this week
And new pictures on the walls?
i loved the back to back cuts of them looking into the camera then quickly looking away
Brilliant sketch as usual 🤣 Unfortunately way too accurate for many students... And I applaud Foil's dedication to grow that moustache for the skit!
He cheated, it's fake, we're sorry
@@foilarmsandhog Well, he did have to stick to the overall concept 👍
@@foilarmsandhog Honestly even better 😂
The only time I ever really cheated was when our teacher had told us we should cheat in the test and he would try to detect our cheating methods. Coming up with ideas was fun, but even knowing we wouldn’t get reprimanded there I was so stressed, that I thought it wasn’t worth it 😂
Loved this, who taught Foil and Hog the sign language, great touch! The answer 2 part B was a great line if you know your Shakespeare 😅 😉, these little nuggets you put in are genius.
I once cheated on a major physics test. My sub-conscience wouldn't let me get away with it. So I actually handed in my cheat-sheet with my exam (without realizing). My teacher didn't fail me, he just subtracted everything that was on my cheat sheet from the overall points... Oh, and everyone at school laughed at me for months for handing in my cheat sheets. Never lived that down...
In high school I'd write my notes on increasingly smaller papers, condensing the information I didn't quite get yet so I could study that a bit more. I showed it to a friend of mine and she tore it up thinking I was going to cheat with it. And thus my notes were gone 😅
Who the heck does she think she is!!
Happy belated birthday Hog!!!! I hope he had the most wonderfully bright and fun day 💛 I also love this sketch so much, and it is very necessary given the fact I have exams all next week 🫠 Arms, have you ever got caught cheating on an exam? Well that’s me presuming you have cheated on a test before…
Tsk tsk tsk, have some faith Sophie!
It was an urban legend at my uni that someone got an F for cheating, but the cheatsheets were so elaborate and well summarised that he got an A for that.
He should've just handed those in!
Though this made for a much better story to tell haha
When I was 15, we once replaced all the posters in our classroom with custom made ones. Everyone had to redo one poster so it still looked the same but had historic facts on it. The teacher never found out and we all had good grades. The funny thing is that I to this day remember the stuff I wrote on my poster. It’s a really great studying system!
Bro's about to memorise the name of every single molecule instead of learning how the naming system works xD
We had a teacher at my school who told us we could make cheat sheets, we just weren't allowed to bring it to the exams
Ha that's so clever!
What a brilliant teacher hahaha
Omg the same! She said it helps memorise things better as you write them down
I do the same 😊 It helps students focus on the most important things
Oh look, i didnt realise Gerald and Stephen knew eachother back in school
Hahaha! "You're learning a language so that you don't have to learn a language!" I'm pretty sure that's the best part of this! 😂

🤣 Foil makes us imagine all sorts of misbehaviour in this sketch apparently!
Here was I thinking this sketch was just an excuse for Hog to show off his sign language skills, but actually, it was an excuse for Foil to wear a moustache. 😂
The way you even managed to sneak in a Foil moustache joke 🤣🤣🤣
If I were a teacher, and I caught someone cheating, I would actually grade them by how much effort they put into cheating, because at some point, when you're cheating, you're actually learning.
At least Foil will be fine in history, I've heard he's got every former member of the British Empire memorised.
Maybe that's why he had a bad memory. Because that song is taking up all of the space.
@@SamFAHntha I was wondering whether he was very good at learning things for exams since he's so good at learning lines for him-heavy sketches.
Not necessarily retaining what he learns, just long enough to use it for the exam.
@@IntensivePorpoise A very good question to which I have no answer for, sorry 😂
My favorite teachers were the ones that gave us an actual study guide, that would end up as the test.
Its kinda BS in my opinion that some teachers seem to give out tests… that have questions on it that is vaguely familiar, but not something you felt you studied enough to really know.
Same goes for college.
Yes!!!
In the UK, even the teachers don't know what's on the exam! All the questions are set by an exam board - they can usually guess which topics will come up based on past papers though.
That takes cheating to a whole new level of stupid! 🤣🙌 The Spanish guy was hilarious!
Brilliant! Laughed out loud, especially about the sign language bit - now I feel prepared for today's challenges. (I kinda wish they were exams.)
One of my teachers taught us how to write really good cheat-sheets. Not to use them, of course, but so that we would figure out where gaps in our knowledge were and to condense the learning material over all.
We must appreciate the dedication of Foil for the preparation for his exams 😅 Great video guys 😊
OK, this was one your best sketches I have seen (and they are usually great)! So much depth hidden behind the jokes. As a teacher (and of course formerly a student), I can relate to so much of what is underlying here.
Reminds me of Ron Swanson: "I will work all night and day, if it ensures that no work is done"
Love the commitment to learning sign language! Someone in the school where my brother teaches tried the printed bottle label trick so they'd be onto you with that! 😆
Back in high school, I once got this short (like two pages) - but in my opinion BS - assignment, so I decided to basically copy the whole thing from an internet page I had found. My teacher asked for a source, but that would have been too revealing, so I had to create a whole site from scratch on the subject that was so extensive my assignment on two pages looked like a decent summary. This was decades ago, when the Internet was still in its infancy, so it's not quite as mad a task as it would appear now, but it was still a lot of work (And my assignment? Just passed).
I love sketches where Foil insists on some nonsense and Arms innocently and sincerely surprises and tries to call to reasonable behaviour. 😂And always fails. My favourite organ Doomdah at the end)
"You learned a language to... avoid learning a language." Gold, absolute gold.
Hi! I just wanted to thank Lilium Sylvanum, the person who makes russian subtitles (i hope he or she reads the comment section)! From time to time I put them on even if I understand everything without them. The localisations of jokes and expressions are sometimes so extremely good in a way subtitles also should be, not taking the attention away from what is going on on the screen (still crying over Мать-сыра-земля and пацаны for lads (don't know why the second one got to me, but it's just so spot on that you don't question the choice even for a second :) Oh, and the Irish Intervention was a masterpiece of translation, thank you, without you I couldn't have shown it to my relatives, when they asked why I was laughing so hard. There have been many other examples, but I've been binge-watching and my memories are a mess). And the last but not the least, my personal favourite: ✨ the cultural side-notes ✨. They are an invaluable help in the social-themed sketches and also very interesting per se. It takes a bit longer to watch the sketch if you read everything, but they are so worth it, please never stop making them!
P.S.: Do you maybe have any social accounts one could follow? I'd love to :)
P.P.S.: The sketch was amazing too, thank you very much! I didn't mean to be impolite, please know I join in to whatever praise is written by other people ☺️
Oh, I hope she sees this! It's nice to know that the subtitles are so well done and so appreciated!

I believe that "cheating", as in searching the answer during a test when you don't know, makes you learn more than feeling like you have to know every single detail from heart. The most stupid part is that there isn't any profession in which you are not supposed to "cheat" daily. Imagine a doctor that knows every medicine, every side effect, every disease etc. Is just not necessary.
I love that he already knows everything. The Spanish was subtle enough for me to go "wait a minute!"
Brilliant sketch guys, you did good 😂😂😂
I never cheated because I have good memory so I could memorize the contents just before the exam and get a high mark (I did not learn it I would quickly forget it after the exam). So there were a lot of people who cheated off of me. One particular one I never seemed to forget. When I was a 4th grader I had a classmate who did not know how to read. Every year the teacher would let him pass with the intention off failing him next year but every year this would happen so he managed to be a 4th grader without even knowing how to write his own name. It was not like he was stupid either he just didn't like studying as he learnt how to read when he was repeating the 4th grade and understood he couldn't get by anymore. Anyway in one exam the teacher sat him down next to me because he wanted him to get high marks. Cool. After the exam I got 90 something and he got 0. The teacher berated him as such "Look son. I know you are having a hard time studying that's why I sat you down next to Kasaix. I was going to turn a blind eye to your cheating but what is this!? Why did you even cheat your own name!?" Basically the kid cheated off my entire exam INCLUDING the name so I had 2 papers under my name while he had none. Yep.
That's why you have to learn to read, to write, do math and learn a foreign language - to be able to cheat properly.
Love this idea! And Hog got to show off his sign language skills :D. Great outro, too!
In university we had one brilliant professor. He would allow his exam students to take one cheat sheet into the exam. One DinA 5 piece of paper was allowed. You could write on it as much as you wanted, both sides. Nearly every student did that.
A while after I had passed my exams I asked him why he would allow that and that he was the only professor I had ever met who allowed it and his explanation made me laugh: He said that by having to boil down everything to a point that it would fit onto a small piece of paper you would have to repeat everything a couple of times and sum it up a couple of times. You would also have to write it down very neatly, so that in the end you would know everything very well. He also said that normally no student would ever even LOOK at this cheat sheet but the ones that are very nervous or scared of the exam would hold onto it like a life line and it would help them immensely to pass the exam.
He was brilliant!
Omg I love this sketch so so much but it’s so true I’ve been way more stressed cheating for an exam than I have been for just studying for it 😂😂
(That’s what I would have said if I actually cheated during an exam which I’ve definitely never done 👀👀)
Great sketch lads!! 😁
I distinctly remember finding out that, if I looked at a certain angle, the light allowed the paper of the person beside me to be reflected back in my glasses, except I was looking in the opposite direction so the teacher couldn’t say I was cheating.
that's some spy shit going on
Lmao I've actually seen the printing-cheatsheet-into-bottle-label irl. Also popular with the girls - write it on your thighs and wear a dress, the teacher can't ask you to lift your skirt. My class was really creative.
The funny thing is if he so focused on this stuff he will learn it while prepairing for cheating😂
I was at your show in Melbourne the other month, did you get the sign language joke idea from there when you had an interpreter for that performance? Cause the 'same job as 3 men' joke at the start was one of the best of the night.
Ahhhh Nicole! I remember! What a legend she was.
Oh my goodness, this is fantastic. I love it. How long did it take to learn the signed conversation? (Which I'm trusting was authentic.)
I think it took them about 10-15 minutes
You learn a language so you don't have to learn a language?! 😂Absolutely love it!
I think this one is my favorite! Genius! And the ending is perfect!
Yeah, learning sign language to avoid learning french makes absolute sense! Great ideas there, have they been tested in real life? 😜
Hey guys! This is a great sketch. As someone who just graduated college, the theme really resonated with me.
Is it because you cheated? 😂
Lol no. However this video definitely reminded me how people resort to desperate and unethical measures when they put things off to the last minute
I find it so hard to study properly. I can never concentrate properly.
"going to memorize it?" "they'll never know" 😂😂😂
also can we talk about the stress of cheating during an exam? i could never.
He’s gonna need the entire geography course tattooed all over his legs
haha
More pendulum FAH please!
Why dose a sketch make my leaving feel more real than any teacher ever could
Absolute genius! Perfection. I know so many people like this! The fact that he could clearly communicate quite well in Spanish but that didn't even occur to him! And believing memorising is a form of cheating, just.. *chef's kiss*
Man, it's so hard to cheat. I got caught for doing the exam properly
Funny sketch lads 🙂👍
Tell Hog that Luke (FAHs biggest fan) wishes him a Happy birthday.
🎂🎂🎂🎉🎉🎉
Not quite cheating, but one of my classmates in high school would score on all his tests specifically so that he got Cs on everything in the first trimester, Bs in the second, and As in the third so that his parents would think the material was difficult but he was working hard on his grades.
He had to study like crazy to get his scores that precise, and even though it worked, it would've been easier to just study and get straight As. Apparently his parents were more impressed by his improving his grades than just getting stuff right the first time around, though.
Congratulations on the Just For Laughs gig!! 🎉👏🏻👏🏻 Planning my road trip to Montreal right now!!
Officially got my tix, so excited!! 💃🏻⚜️
