"The first rule of Fight Club is: You do not talk about Fight Club."
Ever wondered whether such iconic words from the 1999 cult movie, Fight Club could ever reward you? No?
Neither did Allison B. Garrett, a teenager from Tennessee, US who was given full marks in her essay assignment for writing these very words to the question - 'Write a review on a movie you have seen.'
Garrett posted her assignment on Twitter with glee, saying an opportunity arose and she took her chances:
In her essay assignment, Garrett handed over an almost blank page with the first rule of Fight club written at the top and at the bottom she explained saying: "That's it. That's the essay."
The teacher who awarded her full marks seemed to be in good humour as she wrote his feedback stating:
"I struggled over this grade for a long time. I finally decided you get a grade for a laugh and how relevant your review is for this particular movie."
She also added a warning for Garrett's future saying:
"Let me warn you: do NOT try this kind of thing with other professors; they may not have my sense of humour."
At the bottom of his feedback, the teacher awarded Garrett 100/100 marks.
Friends of the teenager have applauded her stupid courage while expressing their jealousy of her success on Twitter:
