I think it's really funny to see "mature" adults whining about a few points on an assignment. At school today in my Methods of Teaching Social Sciences class, we were handed back our first assignment. Out of a possible seven points, my group got a five. Did we whine? Did we complain? Did we challenge the professor in front of the entire class that his grading system was completely unfair? No...we read his comments on the assignment and tried to figure out how we could do better on the next one. I wish that the same could be said for the others in the class. One group got seven points, so there was no complaint from them. However, several other students in the class began to whine and complain. There's this one guy who I could swear was on the verge of tears because he got like three points. The guy is like 24 years old and he's crying over an assignment. All the while, I'm sitting there thinking, "For fuck's sake, people, this assignment is like two percent of your grade." Why not try reading the professor's suggestions about what he wants from the assignment and try to improve on the next one rather than acting like a goddamned four year old? This one old ugly-ass lady who bugs the hell out of me publicly proclaimed how her group was completely incompetent and how if she had done it by herself then she would have gotten a seven.

After class, somebody in her group showed me her submission to their project and it was complete crap. I'd be willing to bet that, based on what I saw, she'd more than likely get a fucking zero if she had done it by herself.

I don't know why the hell it is that in every class I've ever had there has to be some fucker who is as annoying as shit. In this class there are four of them. One of them is the old guy I described on a previous post who smells really bad and has ass-breath. In fact, that is what I have named him...Assbreath. Occasionally I am unfortunate enough to have to sit near him and damn it...I spend that whole class trying to sit at an angle where I don't have to smell his fucking ass breath. The others are Ugly Old Lady, Guy With Long Hair and a Bad Dye Job Who Takes Himself too Seriously, and Hot Girl Who Should Stop Trying to Sound Intelligent.

Sigh. Oh well...I just had to get all that out of my system. If not for those four people, I would totally love that class.
