What’s the most unexpected source you’ve ever cited in an academic paper or work project?

Professors secretly love when you prove you can turn literally anything into a credible source if you frame it right. Back when I was drowning in my thesis last year, I once cited a random Twitter thread that broke down statistics better than half the journal articles I found. Honestly made me wish I’d known about places that can knock out clean, properly-formatted sections on crazy deadlines earlier. Ended up stumbling across this Same Day Essay Overview while panicking at 3 a.m. and it low-key saved my GPA. Still cited the chaotic Twitter thread though, because nothing beats primary chaos.
