Everyone dreads the thought of just going to class. Sitting in a lecture hall or a classroom for at least an hour doesn't appeal to anyone. So what's one of the worst parts about being in class? The people around you. Sometimes during class, I think to myself, "Is this really happening?" because people just blow my mind with how rude they can be. Some of the things that annoy me personally are when people:
1. Come to class late and disturb the entire lecture.
2. Ask a question someone just asked or over something the professor just answered.
3. Sit in the seat my feet are on... when there's plenty of other empty seats around.
4. "Whisper" behind me... just kidding. Can you please stop yelling?
5. Bring food with an overbearingly strong smell.
6. Practically grope their significant other. There's no need for that in class. Save it for the bedroom, please.
7. Distract others with everything but material related to class. I don't know about you, but I'm here to learn.
8. Make unnecessary noises like constant pen clicking, gum chomping, or slamming on a keyboard.
9. Shake their leg to where it moves the entire row of seats and you feel like this
10. Come in smelling like smoke. This is disgusting and no one appreciates it.
After reading this, hopefully you got a laugh, but also I hope that maybe you think about the people around you while you're in class to help make it a little more bearable.
