A few weeks ago in a lecture class class (which means last quarter) I had the distinct displeasure of sitting by two very loud and talkative girls (or rather, they sat by me, because I'm one of those overeager types who gets to lecture 20 minutes before it starts to get a good seat.) They whispered and chatted and texted through the entire lecture. Yet, at the two minute mark before the class let out, when everyone started surreptitiously packing up their stuff, one of the girls whispered, "God, it is SO rude when people do that!"
Er... this coming from the girl who talked through the whole lecture, who probably didn't take one note and likely has no idea what the professor even discussed?
I had to wait to get out of the classroom to start sniggering. But boy, it was pretty funny.
Yes, ugh, I agree! I'd be seething silently the entire lecture and rolling my eyes at the end.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, how rude of them! Those people are so silly when they call out others, it's amazing how those who are rude notice other rude people!
ReplyDeletePeople are oblivious. So sad, but at least they made for good people watching.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE people who have no self-perception. LOVE them. Because I can laugh at them for. hours.
ReplyDeleteThe best part is these people make for great characters in books--especially ones that have giant anvils fall on them.
ReplyDeleteI've always noticed that about rude people, that they easily find fault in others but never in themselves.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it so irritating that the people who are the rudest are often the first to make a noise when something offends them? Argh!
