Stupid damn shit that was invented to ruin your day after school and fuck up your grade. Urban Dictionary

You go to school for fucking 6 1/2 hours, constantly taking it up the ass (figuratively) from dickhead students and fucktard teachers. Then you go home, which SHOULD be time that doesn't involve learning shit you don't care about. But no, these cunt-ass teachers will not accept only 6 1/2 hours of torturing you. They crave more. So they unload a huge amount of this ass discharge they call homework on you. It can range from a simple math worksheet with joke you must fill in when you're done (no biggie) to a fucking ton of work containing bookwork, projects, unfinished classwork, studying for a test you know you're going to fail either way, and book reports on a book you didn't care to read. And these teachers are clever too. If you spent fucking hours on this shit and ended up going to sleep at 4 in the motherfucking morning, these assrammers won't even check the damn homework the next day. Oh, but if you forgot to note down the homework, did the wrong page, or just didn't give two shits about it and didn't do it, the assholes will ask you turn it in. All in all, school sucks, classwork sucks, teachers suck, students suck, and homework is the fucking scum of the earth. Urban Dictionary

Something that does not benefit either party involved, teacher or student; extra work that should be done in class but isn't for some stupid reason. The teacher is just making more work for you and for himself/herself. Why??? We may never know. Urban Dictionary

The shit you must do every school night, after already putting in 6 in a half hours of hard labour for some shit school. It is considered a punishment from teachers. It can range from a couple science questions to finishing a project, a book report, and 6 pages of math. Sometimes, people get so stressed out about homework that they develop social and mental problems, or, are afraid to go to school the next day. Too much homework can lead to incomplete, or meteocre assignments. Also, many people may stay up to as much as five in the morning getting their homework done. This is only in extreme cases, though. I myself get homework, and I absolutely hate it, but fortunately I don't get too much. But of course, if you don't finish your homework, for whatever reason, you get screamed at, punished, and completely and utterly humiliated in front of your classmates. After school is supposed to be the time where you can actually have some free time, and do things such as play video games, hang out with your friends, watch television, etc. But that isn't really possible these days, the amount of homework given to students has increased dramatically over the years. I say: no homework. Urban Dictionary

Work assigned daily from teachers. You work hard all night getting the work from that day done, and get even more the next day. Gets progressivly worse as you get older. Urban Dictionary

Homework: (Noun) a punishment given to students by evil teachers after the students have already put in 7 hours of hard labor. (See evil, torture, wrong, cruel, unjust, satan, crap) Urban Dictionary

An unreasonable torturous device that teachers who dont like their students use to bring them pain and cause them to lose sleep Urban Dictionary

Homework is a form of suppressing a child's individual interests so that they do not develop any ideas of individual worth and proceed to fill a job that is needed to keep everything functioning properly when he or she is not at school. Like school, people who challenge the idea of homework are seen as stupid because they are unwilling to memorize things that people before them thought or did in an effort to appear "intelligent." In American society, it is vital that one takes a job working under an employer as someone who helps keep the economy and social order functioning as it should rather than developing his or her own indivdual interests and possibly changing the way we look at life. Urban Dictionary

An obsolete form of punishment enacted by teachers with no lives, homework helps teachers with nothing better to do than math problems impress their hobby onto students who would otherwise partake in a finite quantity of educational participation. Originally instated as a revenue producing mechanism in the middle ages, homework’s humble beginnings stemmed forth from Feudal kings minimizing the intellectual growth of serfs by limiting their educational advancement through repetition of previously developed skills and formerly acquired knowledge. Also, Homework serves as the first word in the acronymic name God gave to the place he would burn sinners for eternity, and is the predominant form of punishment there. Urban Dictionary

Buisy work that deprives students of valuable sleep hours. Urban Dictionary
