Neat Way to Make Term Papers Longer

I'm in the library today during 3rd hour, and I started screwing around on Microsoft word, seeing if I could change my AP US History Document Based Question from four and about 3/4 pages, to five pages. I found out that if you typed the paper in size 12 font, then you go to edit/replace, then put in a period in the first box, put a period in the second box except go down to font and change it to 15, it changes every period in your paper to size 15 font, which visually doesn't look like any thing happened, but added 1/2 a page to mine! ( Just thought I would pour out some of my MS Word 40 Ounce for some of my fellow brothers in the struggle)
 
classic... i do it on all of my papers, but never 15! i've always done 13, it's way less noticable but i suppose 15 would give you more length.
 
I'm finishing a 5000 word paper right now (actually I should probably get off NS) and I think I'm going to have trouble keeping under that.
 
im in high school and i do this all the time, change the font from 12 to 12.5. its so small teachers never really notice and itll add like a 1/4 to a 1/2 of a page depending on how long it is. never thought of the period thing tho, gotta try it sometime
 
i just always put two spaces inbetween words.

i sure hope you just missed the spacebar twice and don't think that in between is one word
 
Aw man you get to type your DBQ's? My teacher made us do them by hand in one period (55 mins) to prep for the exam. Good luck on that, by the way, I got a 3. It's not hard, but its long and takes endurance.
 
there is a vid on youtube doing a walk through of the period trick thingy it works really good the guy shows himself taking like a 16 or 19 page paper and addign liek 3 pages because of the periods.
 
i just like to rant on and on until the teacher gets bored of reading my pointless story that is so incredibly off topic that dolphins were swimming on her desk so she grabbed her harpoon and starting shooting at them. Then she put on her silver robot suit of death and started shooting laser beams from the tips of her fingers. This sent the world into an uproar. "She can't do that" they said. There were babies crying, and chinese people running in the streets screaming godzilla. Even willie wonka was quite upset. Though, he wasn't sure why.....And then Tupac Shakur swooped down from above and mauled the evil wizard who dropped the ring into the molten lava. Gollum dove in after it, but he had no luck and was burnt to a crisp. This worked out well for Peter Pan and the lost boys though because now they had the place all to themselves. They decided to throw a party before their parents got home. They put up streamers and banners and got all the latest new music to play and sure enough they had the greatest party ever put on televison. But two hours into this madness Peter's parents called saying they were coming home early. But in true Peter Pan fashion he got every one out and the place cleaned up just in time for them to arrive. To bad he left one little peice of evidence....A condom stretched over a half empty beer bottle and a dead cheerleader in the closet....o well....join us next time for another random story!!
