Arsey blokes in MO2006

[The Bitter Historian]

I saw both of you. One of you had black floppy hair, the other a rather odd blonde monstrosity. You were both wearing the type of clothes that would cost me a couple of weeks wages just to go into the shop and look at. You both decided to spend an entire lecture chatting away, laughing (quite coyly, too, a blossoming romance?) in a loud tone of voice.

It wasn't just me you were narking off, you managed to piss off most of the lecture room. I hope whatever you were talking about was important.

So, yes, if anyone knows who these two are, give them a bloody good kicking from me, self-important idiots. Some of us are here to learn. No, really. Go to Stabucks next time and have your needless conversation there.

I never understand it why people go to lectures if they are just going to sit and talk, not listen and not take any notes. I mean what do they get from it?

I always seem to sit beside or behind people in IR2006 who always talk.

so alive, so full of fire and music!

Do lecturers not simply tell them to shut up (or more commonly: ask what the problem is)?

Failing that happening on its own, couldn't someone in the Lecture Theatre have asked the Lecturer to tell them to wheesht (or done it themselves)?

"There is only ever one truth. Things are always black or white, there's no such thing as a shade of grey. If you think that something is a shade of grey it simply means that you don't fully understand the situation. The truth is narrow and the path of the pursuit of truth is similarly narrow."

The lecturer was clearly made uncomfortable about it, but seemed to have the viewpoint that it was best to leave well alone. They were at the centre of one of the back rows. Someone did hiss a angry "Will you fucking shut up?" at them, but it failed, alas.

Next time, I will not be so polite. The lecture ended a little early, which might be a good thing; I was about to actually ask the lecturer to tell them to shut up.

I am actually genuinely curious as to who these two were. I see them around a lot, but I didn't realise what a bloody awful combination they were.

Talking in german no less. People were maaaaaaad. Lecture wasn't up to Rowlands usual standards anyway.

[mod hist]

Hahahhahaha Hubertus!!!!!!!!!!! i've heard about him.

[treehugger]

Both of them wankers, i think the dark haired guy is the most punchable person in St Andrews. Including Brian Lang.

[The Bitter Historian]

Good lord, it's nice to feel validated. And that it wasn't just me wanting to thump them.

Anyone know the identity of the prat who asked Luxford how the contemporary audience would perceive a nude painting of a woman in his Rembrandt lecture on Thursday? Hangs about with a bunch of Sloane Ranger-wannabe girls, next shuts the fuck up and sits on the balcony every lecture - Art History 1st Year. I've wanted to stab the prick for 3 weeks now! [Particularly after he presumed I was some sort of sub-human organism - yeah, ok, I had my PJ top on underneath my jacket - but it wasn't that visible!! - and then attempted an RP accent after he heard me talk]

Oh, this is also the same guy and group of cackling girls who were asked by Alex Marr if the reason one of them was playing with the dick's hair was because he had nits. *THIS* close to bollocking the guy and seeing some freaking justice!

ARGH! If anyone sees him about, do humanity a favour and poke him in the eye or mess up his hair or something... anything!

There is a remote possibility that this person is on The Fine Wine and Cheese committee.
