or; disrespect at an annoying level
I've always wondered why teachers make rules against eating in class. It never seemed to make sense to me, all through la prepa (high school, I mean) up to and through la Uni. It seemed to always be a pointless rule . . . but that's because I've never been in a class with someone eating.
Suddenly the rule makes great sense, and I know for a fact that when I'm a professor, we'll be having no eating in my classes, unless it's something I (or someone in the class) have brought for sharing purposes.
It happened like this - I was sitting there in my seven AM class, enjoying myself and scoping out some of the honeys. (You know me, thinking like a hot-blooded male and all . . .) The class was going well, I was learning a bit and trying to pay attention to the lecture, when suddenly I hear a loud SLURRRRP from the seat next to me.
I look over in disgust, and I see the guy sitting next to me with a juicy plum in hand, munching away at the large bite he'd just extracted from the side of the hapless victim.
I think to myself, oh come on, if you're going to eat, go out in the hall or something! I didn't want to jump to conclusions, because maybe this guy was a diabetic or something and was feeling an insulin reaction or something coming on . . . excusable, but please leave.
But he didn't. He sits there, slurps down the plum in large, sticky bites, sucks on the pit for awhile, spits it on to his desk, pulls out a banana and devours it like a hungry chimpanzee, and then starts working on a nice big Fuji apple. Really crisp. Really loud.
Obviously it wasn't something like an insulin reaction . . . this prick just has no manners. If I was the teacher, I'd have thrown his fat ass out of the classroom and told him to come back when he decided he wanted to be polite.
As it was, I was thoroughly distracted for the entire second half of the class, and missed big chunks of the lecture.
So I've learned my lesson - no eating in the classroom! At least have the decency to not eat in busy, public places like that. Get out in the hall, you lazy, sloppy jerk.
(Sorry for the rant over something so little and pointless, but I'm really, really bugged by this guy.)
