Girls who flirt like there's no tomorrow just for the sake of driving you nuts while you're trying to concentrate on the lecture.

And my lazy-ass bio TA.

And my other bio TA, who loves Linux more than /b/. And spends more time flirting with these 2 chicks rather than teaching.

...how do you...do you just stand there? Wait for them to realize it? Or try to sadly squeeze through?

Normally they just give up and start walking.. But I got smart today and said "No please, after you~" and faked politeness.

I can't even remember the joke, but it was one that got laughs out of everyone I've ever told it to. I mean, she was laughing, but she was...saying ell oh ell.

It was just weird.

It's annoying how small the lecture hall desks (especially BSB147) feel during a midterm in comparison to the same desk during a class. Plus, there's multiple sheets you have to refer to at once (i.e. the question sheet and the scantron) so I had to write my damn Psych midterm with my question sheet on my lap, and my scantron on my desk. The question sheet alone barely fits on the desk.

It's annoying being left-handed in a predominantly right-handed lecture hall. CNH 104, the other day, had one left-handed spot remaining the other day, and the f****** desk was torn off.

Picture relevant:

So, what's the problem? o_o I clearly must not understand the mechanics of holding a door open for somebody.

@lawly

Because, normally they're also going through the door. So they're in the doorway holding it open for you to pass (from the the push side; not so much the pull side), but they're in the middle of the way.

Usually the door opens so there is a wall behind the open door. In other words the fat person is holding the door from the otherside, completely obstructing the doorway by standing in it.

It's also sad how that stick person is a fairly accurate representation of me.

There should be exceptions for this thread, considering the number of replies we get. I hate waiting 4 weeks for it to progress another page.

He kinda looks like a Bellsprout more than anything.

Yes, but since during a midterm there is no one on either side of you, you can use your little fold-out table thing, as well as the one on your left
