There's this kid I sit next to in class, and EVERYTHING that happens in the room, he snorts.

Exhales air out of his nose like he's holding back a laugh, jerks his head back a little at the same time, smirks, and then looks over at me out of the corner of his eyes like "Right?!?! Right?!?!"

A pencil drops? This kid snorts.

Someone comes late into class? He's snorting.

Need to know what page we're on? Speak up! And this kid will snort and roll his eyes.

Nothing happens at all? He'll snort at the lack of events.

All while he doesn't do sh!t.

Then he talks to me like I I should relate to his bullsh!t.

I want to be like "Dude, if you don't stop snorting at everything and looking at me like I too should join in as some sort of brotherly dissaproval, I'm going to break your nose and scoop slam you on the projector."

Kid this is your only warning, on a forum you'll probably never visit. Tough luck.

If you don't knock this stuff off, I'm going to be forced to do something stupid, like put a peice of gum on your seat at an angle where the desk will hide it while you walk towards it and sit down while it smears all over the back of your thigh, because I can't fight you in class because I'm there to get an education.

Yea, we're in college. That would be pretty childish of me, and I'll no doubt have a fleeting thought along the lines of "wow, I'm an ass, I'm a little old for this and I'm kind of dissapointed in myself" but you'll be the one with gum all over the back of your legs.

*snort*

Four easy words:

"Shut the fsck up."

Learn them. They work wonders.

I bought my mom these huge shrimps.

Around the size of 2 rolls of quarters next to eachother.

I'd like to drop one in his bookbag.

I suggest you change your logic buddy, there's no room for your kind on ATOT.

If you quit looking at him when he snorts, he'll quit looking at you seeking agreement. Just ignore him.

Perhaps the poor soul has a medical condition of some type. He needs your understanding and compassion, not your scorn and anger. Befriend the lad. Perhaps a lunch is in your future with this gentleman?

Shoot him in the face, point blank, with a paintball gun. Hopefully he will be knocked out and go into a coma for the next 30 years.

I have other ideas but they will cost you. ;)

Ask him if he's had any luck with medication for his Tourette's syndrome. That sort of sounds like a tic.

I'm dealing with the same situation (sort of). In my western civ. class there is this theatre major. He's rather rotund, loud, and vocal. Basically he projects his voice and the class is meant to hold 20tops. The class holds about 5 rows of tables and I'm at the back and he feels its his obligation to talk to me yet talk to the whole class. His name happens to be the same as mine which I guess gave him the idea that I care. Anyway,, since he sits next to me a lot tomorrow instead of being the first one in class (previous class gets out early), I'm going to be on time and purposefully sit 2 rows up from him. We'll see how this social experiment goes tomorrow. Updates to come.

I have this class on Weds. so I have more time to think about my approach. I'll report back here with my findings also.

next time on yer way to cash in a roll of quarters at the bank; stop. and instead hold the roll in you hand making a fist and walk up and punch this poor excuse for a human in the throat. though i do think that would cause more snorting.... :p

ahh ok update!

Well, he's still snorting.

It seemed to retard for awhile somehow, I don't know if it was my lack of acknowledging it was the cause or what, but it slowed down.

That is until... last class.

We had to watch these videos called Moneyhunt where entrepreneurs search for funding etc.

Anyways the videos were pretty hilarious. And as a direct result, the snorting was revived.

Not only that, I snorted once also. It was completely involuntary although I'm not sure a totally conscious action.

Anyways, he snorted and I hit him with a support snort!

I totally, and accidentaly, validated the snort brotherhood.

Now I'm trying to leave this behind. It's gonna be tough.

This is extremely complex and consists of a level of sophistication that easily rivals the likes of quantum physics.

I will devise an exit strategy and apply it once I feel I have the means to break such a brotherly snort-bond without arising suspicion or having him even become privy to this whole situation.

I think you really need to take longballmaniac's advice and punch him in the throat.
