Rant about college students who...

[Kroze]

Is a non-traditional student and coming back to school in their 30s, 40s, and even 50s. I have no problem with you going back to school as I am in the same boat as you but please STFU. You don't know it all and stop opening your mouth pretending to know it all every time the professor speak. Holy shit that's annoying, not only it makes you look dumb pretending to know everything, you are a loser trying to compete with 18 year old high school kids.

I got this mid 40 year old guy in my class who's one of those "one-upper" kind of guy. Loves to talk and brag about himself and how great he is. Throwing his credentials left and right about being a deputy fire chief and how he was in Iraq 10 years ago as a tank commander, blah blah blah. He actually sounded like a 16 year old kid the more he talks now that I think about it.

We're having a discussion about invasion of privacy via airport security cameras being able to see through clothing, he was literally yelling and screaming against this 18 year old girl on how it's not. Meanwhile everyone else in the class just look at each other with disgust as to why this idiotic loser won't STFU.
Moral of the story is, If you're old, get some maturity and act your age. Losers.
That is all.

On behalf of all old people, I'd like to say, fuck you.

 

[ProfJohn]

In other words...

We have an 18 year old female who doesn't understand how cameras working arguing against a guy who does and he is the idiot?

Pics of 18 female?

these are a lot more common in community colleges... so fucking glad I am done with general ed.

I think he is actually FOR the cameras. But, you would say that.

Those old fuckers bothering you in remedial English?

I think this rant is more against knowitalls who just happen to be older than the crowd, not against fogies who blow vapor vomit.

She is smoking hot and seemed like a freak in bed.

Good to know it's just a common problem with community colleges as I am planning to transfer the hell out of it next year to a university.

There were several older students in my CS classes who would waste the first 10-15 minutes of class asking very personal questions about the homework. Or they'd interrupt to ask long drawn out questions that are better reserved for office hours. It was damn annoying.

There were only a few older students in my EE classes, but none of them would talk during class unless it was a legit question.

 

[Farang]

I used to get this a lot in community college.

Seems to be hit or miss at my university. You have either the super annoying douche-meister older people, or the goody student type that you want in groups projects.

The older students were the worst project partners. They never contributed because they always had work obligations, had to take care of their children, etc. They were better at making presentations though...

this. I'm all for old farts wasting my time in public ranting about god knows what and frothing at the mouth telling me I should know my place and such. that's great.


but in class? pretending your single experience is somehow exceedingly relevant to the lecture?

fuck off, old asshole!

That does it motherfucker...Tomorrow, I'm sitting next to you...I had two big bowls of beans tonight and washed them down with a couple of beers...I'm gonna be tuned up.

Then, we'll spend half the class discussing it.

Don't forget to bring the pics of your grand kids. And the young kids these days are all about facebook. You could tell him all about how amazing it is that in your lifetime we've gone from the telegraph to THIS and how heartwarming it is to watch your family grow right in front of you and OH... he's not going to believe what little so-and-so is up to now. Don't forget to let him know how much this has changed your life. That and your new Smart Phone you just got from AARP. I bet he doesn't know that texting is a neat way to keep in touch with people when you're on the go like you are and it's sooo much easier than texting the old way when you had to go 22 444 5 555 etc. I bet you even remember what it was like to have to know how to read a map if you were going to drive in an unfamilliar place. And when you used to have to go to the video store to rent a movie. *bbrrraapp* Excuse me... Oh, who am I kidding... when you had to go to the MOVIE THEATER while the movie was playing or you'd never be able to see it. But you don't go to the movies as much as you used to now because it's so darned expensive. I'm sure in your day you could get into a first run film for $1 and gas was $.79/gallon.

:awe:

Fixed that last part...BUT, I don't have a "smart phone," hell, I don't have a "dumb phone" anymore, and I don't think I've ever sent a text in my life...but I MIGHT go on a rant about how you used to have to carry a pocket full of change so you could use a pay phone, IF there was one around...at a nickel or dime per call...and if some shitstain hadn't broken the phone trying to steal the coins...or if some bimbo broad wasn't camped out on the gawddammed phone calling her pimp, boyfriend, sugar daddy, or every swinging dick she knew...

I don't do Facebook, Myspace, "Tweeter" or any of the other social networking sites...oh yeah...I still haven't joined the AARP gang...yet. (they keep sending me their crap in the mail...but I disagree with a lot of their political stances...so fuck them too.)

The trick to farting in public...once you get old, is to just ignore it...act like it never happened. They just assume you're so old and hard of hearing that you don't know you farted...you learn to chuckle quietly to yourself as they turn green and gag at the stench...just be sure to carry a spare set of chonies in the rolling backpack. They might come in handy some day.

Hey, I'm not that young, then. The cheapest first run films I remember were $2.75 and gas was $1.70.




....well, this is more of a response to whoozyerdaddy.
