  • I swear if you open your mouth once more...

    So I go to a women's college. This is an important bit here and does tend to explain my rather feminist bend on things. That however if for fratching and will not be explored further here.

    However in my night class we have one guy. No problem, guys often take classes here as we have an intercampus arrangement with local colleges to allow students to take classes on any campus they so choose. The problem with this guy is he's an ass. A grade A certifiable douchecannoe.

    Every single class this semester he has gone on some sort of anti-feminist rant. Whenever one of us (the 13 women) in the class attempts to make a point he cuts her off with a poorly thought out psydo-philsophical rant on how she's wrong. Doesn't matter what we're talking about, he knows more and we're just a bunch of bimbos who had been waiting around for him to come along and show us the light. Doesn't help that there are some girls who came here because they are intimidated by men and thus won't say anything when he cuts them off. Then there are the rest of us who are just too pissed by his continued asshattery to want to deal with it anymore.

    I swear if he opens his mouth once more in the next two hours I'm going to lose my temper at him. It won't be pretty. Angry little red head going on a fratching worthy rant in front of three professors with the goal of shutting this asshat up. Maybe it will be pretty...

      Indeed. Video it and give it to us

      He does indeed sound like an ass. If I was in his situation I'd shutup and sit down from the beginning. Then again, I'm not an ass. I'd be nervous too, lmao.

          I'm pretty sure we'd all be cheering you on while you did it.

            If it really is a problem, I'd go to the instructor. I had a guy like that once, called me a bitch when I asked him to be quiet so I could hear the lecture. I ended up needing to go to the dean because my instructor couldn't reel him in. They basically told him if he had one more complaint, he'd be kicked out of the class and wouldn't get the tuition refunded and would get whatever grade he had earned at the end of the semester, even if he couldn't turn the rest of the work in for the semester (basically an F.) It made him more manageable.

              It is people like that who embarrass my gender.

              What is the class subject? I am curious as to what degree this self proclaimed BS, MS. PhD* has.

                Ugh, I hate it when I have jerks like that in my class. I would have definitely stepped in at this point, and I wonder why your professor hasn't yet.

                    But, dealing with this douchenozzle as a group seemed rather effective. If he had just shut up instead of always trying to talk over the prof and actually contributed in a useful manner there wouldn't have been a problem. But he came across as one of those pseudo-intellectuals that had to have the last say on everything!
                    I'm not sure that would work here, unfortunately.

                    If he went out of his way, as a guy who has an issue with women, to go to a women's school - I suspect that he was looking for this sort of negative attention and thriving off of it. Ganging up on him could actually just make him happy. I'd take it to the teacher, then to upper staff if need be.

                      All three professors who taught the class are just as irritated with him as I am. However they've also hit the point of 'let him rant then reaction to what the person before him was saying'. In other words ignoring his existance. It doesn't help that his girlfriend (though how the hell he got her I've got no clue) sits right next to him and hangs on his every word, along with the girl who sits on his other side. Neither of them ever talk, they just nod sagely as he speaks.

                      Thank the Gods, Saints, Powers that Be that last night was the last time I need to see this asshat. If he's in any of my classes next semester I will disembowel him with a glass knitting needle and strangle him with his own intestinal tract.

                      Also, during a discussion as to why a book falls faster than a feather he interrupted my science major best friend to say 'well its surface area, that's easy enough' Her response of 'No, everyone learns in 5th grade that it's mass combined with wind resistance. A feather has less surface area than a book and thus if we were going by what you said it should fall faster. Sit down, shut your face, we're all sick of dealing with you.' Actually managed to make him sit in stunned silence for a few minutes. I watched one professor actually bite his lip to keep from laughing, another one snorted, the third snarfed coffee. It was good.
