WHAT DO I DO GIVE A fVck is what THE PROF IS TEACHING US. NOT YOUR OWN Added sound effect + BS. We are paying like $20/hour ish ++ to listen to lectures and trying to learn and then there are those a** mentioned above trying to yap away during a lecture. IF YOU LIKE to talk so much, WHY ON EARTH WOULD YOU WANT TO DO IT IN A GODAMN lecture, so it outside or in your BED WITH YOUR LOVER/WHORE/WHATEVER....

Because they have social lives. You're the type of person that university is wasted on, you concentrate so hard on the work side that you miss the other 50% of it, the human interaction, which is just as important as the academic achievement. I'm detecting a note of bitterness in that rant, so stop bitching and get out more.:beer:
Though you're probably right, talking during a lecture is like talking in a movie theater.

I agree, and i'm not disputing the fact that people talking in lectures when youre trying to listen is irritating. If he'd have said:

"Man, it really annoys me when people talk in lectures..."

and talked about it normally i'd have agreed with him. But if you read his posts he's obviously a nutjob, he talks about people and their families dying in car fires, along with cursing them in a very extreme way. The man obviously has far deeper issues than being annoyed at talking in lectures, did you read his posts? He is obviously mentally unbalanced, and I mean that in all seriousness. It's not even a guess, it's a fact.:beer:

Hannibal Lecter, anyone?:D

ohh darn. i have to agre with the tard..err i mean nanyangveireregiadsad whever his nick is.


Im there to learn. NOT find out what you social life is like. Some people have to PAY the full amoutn and not really one grants or such.

I would rather listen to the lecture then the other people in class.

AND I HOPE those yappers die in a car fire or get run over by a car, or preferably remove themselves from the gene pool by committing suicide together for the betterment of the school.

HOPE their family goes along with them too

IT does not work...they talk soo loud that no matter where you move, you still can hear their mumble

Now read that part back to yourself and tell me you don't have a problem. Saying things like that shows your a bloody whacko. I'm guessing you don't have many friends at university, consider yourself far more intelligent than anyone else, resent other people's social lives, and as a result often have homicidal thoughts. I'm being serious by the way, I was taought to recognize things like this from my psychology degree. No offence intended.:beer:



did you pay for / take loans out for your school by yourself? I'm payin $550 a unit, and if someone is yappin in class I guess I'd be pissed too, but I guess I'm fortunate since the average age at my school is about 30..... especially if this guy is working full time and paying for his school, he's got more reason to be pissed.... but then again you may be right as well

Btw, i am an official notetaker for some students with disability in the class, so I have to make VERY sure that the notes are complete and accurate, I just can't do that with all those YAPPERS in the class.
And yes, i tried changing seats...without avail, no matter what area of the class i move to, i can hear them or other people yapping. I can move to the first row but then it becomes impossible to use my laptop for notetaking.


GODAMN it right..it cost me $490/ credit and I DO WORK (THANK YOU HP CAnada) to support my tuition partially with the help of my parents.

Some people in that class ARE NOT TO LEARN, they are there to MAKE LOVE? WTF, I MEAN WTF

if he or she wont correct it, talk to someone higher up that will.

who the hell cares if they have a life? they should still STFU in class. social interaction has no place in a lecture. group activities, sure, but lecture? no. shut up. pass notes if you really can't stand paying attention. it's your choice if you don't want to pay attention but no one has the right distract others from doing so.

and i highly doubt nanyangview's desire to hear his professor is a symptom of being a "wacko." you DID intend that to be offensive, you "bloody" liar. if you had paid attention in your lectures, you'd know about this little thing called "denial." they teach you about it in psychology. but i guess you were too busy talking.

well, to be fair I have never had this come up so I don't know. But if it was a bit lecture hall 200+ people, the most the professor can do is talk about it the next day and that'll be it. If he/she does not enforce it then it will continue.

I went to UT Austin

i didn't own him, i just wanted him to be aware that putting a "beer" at the end of insulting someone doesn't magically make it ok.
