Midknight Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 This happened several years ago in college and, honestly, I can't remember who was the primary witness; but as stupid as it is, it's completely believable. But it came up in conversation recently and I thought I'd share it with all of you. This person was sitting in class on the second floor by the window. He glances out the window and sees two maintenance guys trying to hold up a big lamp pole and using a tape measure to measure it. They're having quite a bit of trouble as it's rather large and unwieldy. Near the end of the class, a third maintenance guy comes out to help and tries to lay the pole flat on the ground. The original two guys seem to be arguing with him, one shaking his hands and the other holding his hand above his head. At the end of the period, he gets out of class and happens to walk by these guys (still arguing) on his way to his next class. He overhears one guy say to the new guy on the scene, "No! We need to measure the height of the pole, not the length!" Share your anecdotes of the worst examples of human derpyness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doxthefox Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 That stare down is just as gangsta... Stories from college classes huh... In our Photonics class (study for light for Elec. Engineering students) we had a teacher who was about 80 years old. He was basically a stereotypical mean old teacher who lost his wife and now spends every waking moment teaching, torturing his students and tending to a large group of cats. We called this guy Voldemort "he who shall not be named" because of the striking resemblance and nasty attitude. Anyway while the lecture is going on, the guys on the left side of the room decide to have a little fun with one of the students that was falling asleep. As many of you know, there's a basket at the bottom each desk that we sometimes use as a foot rest just because it's there. So naturally the guy who feel asleep put his foot there as he was dozing off. The students were able to tie his laces around the leg of the desk and the basket itself during this time. When the student finally woke up at the end of the class, he drops a pencil and finally realized that he couldn't move as everyone started laughing. That is, everyone except Voldemort "he who shall not be named." The class eventually ends and some people start walking out as my friend frees himself from the trap. Voldemort "he who shall not be named" then walks up to my friend in the most serious voice ever and asks what was so funny. My friend started stumbling for words as he says it was comical the way that his pencil fell. Voldemort "he who shall not be named" then cracks a smile and says I guess that is pretty funny as the two start to laugh. From that day forward my friend became the teachers favorite student even though he was asleep about 50% of the time and he got an A- with no effort.

Baggins Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Well, this wasn't me exactly, It was what one of my High School teachers told me: So, when my teacher was in college, he was getting a B+ or something in the class so he figured he could tank the final exam and still pass (it was for philosophy if that matters). So, that night, he goes out, parties, and doesn't study at all (generally goes along with the partying) as long as getting minimal sleep. The next morning, he goes to his final, gets the test, and written on it is one word: Why? So, my teacher, being a witty guy, who didn't want to spend his time writing an elaborate essay, and most likely not in his right mind, writes for his essay "why not?" and hands it in. About three hours later, his roommate comes back and says that he wrote for the whole time. My teacher got an A in the class. Also, I have another one, not so educational, but a personal experience: In high school spanish, we were doing some activity where we had to respond to questions or something (pretty stupid). So, one of the questions was (the question was in spanish, but i will translate :P): "How do the pants fit?" I answered it normally for my own paper, but the guy next to me (who wasn't the best at spanish, or the smartest individual) asked me for help. So, I answer his question with: "los pantalones me quedan mas bueno con una chica" please do not mock my spanish, its been awhile, but translated: "The pants fit me better with a girl." He didn't really ask what it meant, because the teacher was collecting them soon, a few days later, we get them back, and on his sheet the teacher just wrote an exclamation point, surprised she didn't get mad about it...

Banzaiguy Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Once there was this person who played a match against pubbers with an inhouse premade. Then, he lost the match and it possibly scarred him for life. He started trolling the forums and attacking people for no reason like a BM troll. His name was also related to a certain series.sbndb.. iatebambi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
