Ugh, I cannot stand those classes. I actually hate either extreme, to be fair. I hate classes where everyone feels the need to jump in and say something. Half the things they say are super awkward and/or just a waste of time. Example: someone in my marketing class was just dying to know what Tide was going to do about people eating Tide pods. Like, wtf? Nothing? They're legally covered through labeling and every non-stupid person knows you can't eat them. He continued to argue that it looks bad for Tide so they should start a new product line to combat it. ??????? I have a couple classes like that where everyone has this annoying background commentary on every single topic so it takes forever to get through class and it's hard to tell what is lecture material for exams and what is a random tangent that's totally off topic. But I have classes like you're describing too where they're way overcrowded and literally no one will speak. That's super awkward too because there's weird tension and just negativity in the room. I always jump in to answer questions if no one else will for a long time because I just want to keep the lecture moving forward so I can leave. I can't believe Mesut is only 10 years older than you either. He looks much older, in my opinion. Best, ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |
