Idea behind this thread is that we log all the people in our lectures who annoy the heck out of us (with a valid reason). A bonus would be to include pictures of said annoying people.
The guy who came in today 45 minutes into the lecture, just sits on the chairs at the back (i.e. sits with his feet on the chair) and reads printed lecture notes for foundations. Then when D.E.'s starts, still makes no notes and continues reading lecture notes (we assumed they were foundations ones as the D.E.'s aren't available yet...). Note, he does this quite often.
Pretty much everyone in our Vectors and Matrices lectures who aren't on a Maths course. Just go die people.
The sheer audacity to turn up to a lecture 45 minutes late and then casually act as if you know everything that could ever be possibly written on the board annoys me to the core.
People who ask questions where the lecturer has already answered the question in a different way.
Example:
Lecturer: The car I came to work in today, which I own, was blue... (Approximately 10 seconds later, or at the end of the next sentence) Annoying person: So, what colour is your car?
The sheer audacity to turn up to a lecture 45 minutes late and then casually act as if you know everything that could ever be possibly written on the board annoys me to the core.
I hate when I'm in a lecture and the person next to me is on their phone for the entire lecture. The click click click of typing in text messages drives me crazy when I'm trying to listen to the lecturer. Also, those people who "whisper" through lectures, but are clearly a lot louder than they imagine and are distracting everyone within a 5 person radius. Oh, and those people who come in late and then won't just take a seat at the front/the end of an aisle, they *have* to be awkward and excuse themselves into the middle of the hall, putting the lecture on hold for a good 30 seconds.
I don't like lectures, but these people make the experience much worse.
BTW, I obviously don't go to Warwick, but I thought this thread was interesting..!
