Embracing the "fluff" to play the game and the anti-online student.

Definition of "fluff" : The BS information put between actual content to make the assignment more school worthy.

Background: I have a plan and in this plan I have to go back to school. The school that I need to attend is only online. These online classes are good and bad. Good because they work with my schedule and bad because my learning style struggles with the online format.

I have been learning to embrace my ability to "fluff." However, sometimes it is hard to do this because I just think it is a waste of time and sometimes I feel it is a form of lying.

Why do I have to give you a minimum word count? Why can we not just base on the information that is known and not on how much "fluff" that is given?

Oh well...
