I'm not sure where to start with this...

I like to save money for something that is a little more practical... i.e, my tuition, or textbooks especially. The price difference between a good PC and a mac is over a year's supply in textbooks, or a major down payment for a car.

Mac is hardly a more complex computer. They strive for simplicity with their interface. It's just bizarre to use when you are normally a PC user and I'm a bit of a techno-geek myself so I know how to use a Mac almost as well as I know how to use a PC.

Jesse Turner. That walking sack of vomit with his newspaper and his absolutely desperate need to stand for the last 5 minutes of class while the prof is still talking.

He annoys me.

I should be sleeping so I can wake up in 5 hours so I only got to Page 2 of this thread:
I like sitting in the aisle seats so that if I fall asleep , I don't use you as a cushion (which has happened before unfortunately). I also like it because my elbows cramp up and I write at a strange angle and I prefer left handed desks way more than right handed ones because of this.
If I'm screwing any lefties over though, let me know and I will happily move for you.

a minute or two before the end of a lecture...ppl busy packing up (which makes noise) or leaving, when the prof is still passionately taking about the subject/important material that might show up in future evaluations....but I cant hear him/her! It's disrespectful =( =(

I was referring to the PC running Windows as the more complex interface, sorry for any confusion.

Not so much annoying, but amusing... When a person sitting in a lecture who has traditional Indian music set as their ringtone lets their phone ring for a good 2 minutes before answering it because they "didn't know" that it was their phone ringing.

Honestly, how many people did they think had that exact same ringtone?! XD

people playing games/listening to ipods/texting make me soo happy on the inside, theres more of a chance that their going to fail and waste all of mom and dads money (cuz lets face it you would be playing games if you paid for it) and feel horribly stressed out after. Does that make me a bad person?

You think sitting in a class room while not sending a text message for 5 seconds will not only teach you what "the real world is like," but also give you an advantage over those students who send a 5 second text message?

You're not even ****ing writing properly. Go ahead and write like you are now in "the real world."

You didn't even use the proper "they're/there/their" in your first post. I'll give you a hint: if you can write out the sentence with "they are," then the proper word to use is "they're."
