How to deal with writers block

So you’re sitting behind your computer, working on a paper, or should I say “Trying to work on your paper.”  You have a severe case of writers block and so you’re “writing,” has really been staring at the blank page for about an hour.  Your ass-hole teacher named Tod made you write a 5 page paper about “something important to you,” Woooooo-weeeeee I can’t believe big Tod and his unnecessary vagueness.  Heck, maybe he’s a crackhead who got a hold of the wrooong stuff (see Leprechaun in mobile Alabama link if you don’t get this absolutely hilarious joke), you probably should check him into rehab, but you’re not gunna do that because you like Tod, he’s a cool cat, he’s got a lot of this and a lot of that, he plays tennis, golf, and bocce, he reads jet magazine with one hand in his pocket, he writes for sports illustrated from the top of a mountain, HE CAN READ!!!  As opposed to taking out your anger on the cool and awesome teacher named Tod, you’re gunna just find a way to deal with your writers block.  Here’s how you do it.

                One way to deal with writers block is to write something else.  Take this for example, the main reason I’m writing this is because I’m struggling to survive in America and I’m contemplating changing my name to “Tod.”  The thought has crossed my mind many times before but I’ve never been as serious about it as I am right now.  Taking your mind off of the actual thing that you care about can allow you to come back to it with a passion that can only be matched by sloth from The Goonies.  However, it’s very important that you finish whatever you did to take your mind off of it.  You can’t be thinking about fruit salad when you’re trying to write about garden salad, that never gunna work, before you come back to your garden salad you gotta finish that fruit salad or else you’re gunna get some tomatoes, if you know what I mean.

                Another way to deal with writers block is to just get started.  You don’t have to start well you just have to start, your first couple paragraphs can be as bad as troll 2 and as long as you cut them out once your done or you do a lot of editing it’s all good brotha.  I don’t care if you write about swimming in china town, you just have to write something to get your flow started cause this ain’t no place for the light hearted.

                If none of these work plagiarize.  I know this is frowned upon by some teachers but it’s the right thing to do.  I mean, why else would all of that work by other people be so accessible.  Honestly, Tod is a cool guy, he’d rather you hand in someone else’s work then hand in something bad and waste his time.  Just kidding, do not plagiarize, it is better to make up a bullshit excuse in class than to plagiarize because where there’s plagiarism, there’s racism, remember that.
