Ah well, at least it gets me to class. lol I'm short too. I've learned to become very aggressive over my 5 high school years to make it through the hordes of grades and get to class on time. I wonder if there is something else I could apply these skills too....

Ah well, at least it gets me to class. If I'm trying to get to class and there are kids standing on the stairs, they're still fair game once I'm going up. I won't push them down steps, because that's plain mean, but alot of people have been pushed up steps. I'm one of the biggest guys in the entire school, and pretty well known to the teachers as a nice kid, who helps around, so I don't really get in trouble much for doing what I do LOL. Sometimes I get the "Disappointed. You should try to talk, not be aggressive" stares from teachers but I just shrug and they just laugh and turn away. I LOVE that feeling, definitely going to be one of the few things I miss next year. In high school no one would really say anything about that kind of behaviour, unfortunately in the Real World its called "Assault"

Ah, good old high school.
Don't worry you'll still have those idiots standing wherever they feel like in university too; it just seems for whatever reason to be much more inappropriate to hit them than it was in high school.
The paths around campus are fairly thin but become packed with people on the :20 (when classes finish), and there are always idiots who like to stay in double file even when people are oncoming and the pathway can't accommodate so many people. If the sides of the pathways have massive puddles or mud swamps, you are only left with one option: dip your shoulder and smoke those inconsiderate douches. If you're a football player, all the better to you.

wow. i have so many pet peeves i don't even know where to begin. ok let's see...
i hate it when i'm on the bus, and i pull the little string thing asking for a stop, and then right after me someone pulls it and they keep pulling on it, and they're wondering why it's not making that little ding sound. it's like 'hello! pay attention dummy!'
i hate it when people misuse the phrase 'i love you' or 'i'm so in love with her/him'. when you're 13 or 14, you're probably not in love.
i hate the sound of styrofoam rubbing together
i hate the sound of people squeezing the last bits of juice out of their juice boxes (that hissing sound is the worst!)

I've learned to ignore 90% of it, but I still hate really really poor spelling/grammar, like if you have to think in order to string together the speaker/poster's message. I even saw a girl once mix up allowed and aloud. ...how?
I also hate it when people who don't know how to whisper or stop talking, like you're in the middle of class and ur friends turns over to start speaking to u in their normal voices, and laugh (seemingly) really loud, even though the teacher is clearly in the middle of explaining something that's important...
and then 10 minutes later, they ask you to explain something that they missed (from talking), when the teacher's explaining something important again!!! that is just really annoying.

the slow walkers is a big one! but also gratuitous PDA. please dont make out in the hallways. its gross. little kisses, hand holding. thats fine. cute even, but save the initimate stuff for a time when I'M not there!.
people that stand in the middle of the escalator and dont let you pass, or decide to stop in doorways, hallway intersections etc. also ppl on the subway who are inconsiderate to others (give up your seat to an old person, take your backpack off if it;s crowded) etc.
and lastly people who burp loudly in public, and dont cover their mouths when they yawn/sneeze/cough. like EW! i dont care to see your tonsils, or catch your germs thank you very much!

When two friends who you love dearly start fighting then both tell you their side on the matter and you agree with both of them that the other was at least partially in the wrong... and then they indirectly pressure you to take sides. I mean even though they always say they're not forcing you to take sides, they really are by telling you about it and expecting you to be a good friend and agree with them.
When girls pee on the toilet seat. There's absolutely no reason why they should be doing that. If you're scared to touch the toilet seat, bring sanatizer!
When I wake up to the same Chris Brown song every morning than hear it again an hour later and again when I come home from school. Play something new for a change! Dig up an oldy if you have to but go at least a day without repeating that song!

Oh man, I went years without listen to the radio, but as soon as I got my g2 and started to drive I listened to it all the time, and I hate how they over play songs.

i agree, i can't stand people who dont pay attention in class and then ask me for the work.i also can't stand other students who banter with the teacher for no reason about worthless topics. this is just a form of sucking up because most of the time the teacher plays along. if you have a reason to argue im fine with that, but stop trying to be the class clown. i also hate the looks one sometimes gets when you walk into a store if you are a teenager. the staff act as if you are not worth helping. i was browsing CD's in Indigo and the saleperson just stood at the end of the row with his arms crossed watching me.
