Normally, I'm not one to cheat on schoolwork, but there was one project in my high school geometry class that I really had no choice on. The teacher made us use this computer program that turned geometrical shapes into rudimentary animations, and we were supposed to design our own short demonstration. We got little classtime to work on this, and since this was the dark ages before everyone owned a computer, I didn't have a home PC. I didn't have my driver's license yet, and I didn't have a ride home from school in the afternoon if I had to stay late at school.
The teacher had no sympathy for all of this. My friend and I worked on our projects together on his computer, but at the time I knew next to nothing about computers, and he was pretty good. He was nice enough to make a second animation (similar to his) that I could call my own. It was obvious the teacher suspected I had cheated, but he didn't call me on it. That's the only time I can recall completely using someone else's work.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
