A piece of work you cannot be botherd to do Urban Dictionary

Something that is relatively important, but you will still leave it till the last minute and complete it the night before it's due in, armed with dangerous amounts of caffeine and sweets, in a major panic. However, you will still feel cheated if you don't get an awesome grade, although you may pretend to be fine with it. They usually have word limits, which are a total bitch to adhere to - if it isn't too short it'll be miles too long. They will produce much bitching and complaining and procrastinating (bubbleshooter.net is a particularly good tool for this). The one positive thing about them perhaps, is the sheer feeling of relief that occurs when the last word is typed and all word counts are adhered to. Who cares if it makes sense or answers the question?! It's finished. The only feeling quite like it is that wonderful feeling that occurs when you finally go to the toilet after being desperate for ages. Urban Dictionary

An assignment (typically for school) that is given for the sake of having an assignment. Bullshit assignments relate to the course, but they do not particularly advance your knowledge in said course. Since these assignments are not useful for actually learning, they are bullshit assignments. It is just a bunch of busy work that makes life more frustrating than it already is... Especially since the assignment shouldn't exist in the first place! Urban Dictionary

When you parents are on your ass when you just tryna live your life and have fun and your teacher is a bitch Urban Dictionary

As if the fact that kids spend almost 10 months of their entire year stuck in some classroom, learning useless information and getting their rights and individuality stripped away wasn't enough torture, somebody thought it'd be a good idea to start off the kids' summer by essentially giving them a project. That is basically what a summer assignment is. Most people that run these school systems are oblivious to the fact that: A) Kids are not going to magically become more literate by being forced to read some crappy novel B) Most kids don't even read the books they're given, instead relying on the internet (A.K.A. that thing that proved that school is 100% obsolete) to give them a quick summary of it, and doing their 5 page essay on that and C) Most kids would rather NOT think about school during the only time they have off. It's almost similar to when they send you packets to do during Christmas Vacation, and you were too busy doing those to actually enjoy playing your new video game system (because homework packets make everybody feel jolly!). Except imagine them taking a bite out of your summer instead. That is what summer assignments are like. Urban Dictionary
