Oh man I feel like this towards a lot of people. And no it does not mean that u are unhappy with yourself or whatevs. Sometimes some people just rub u the wrong way. Nothing wrong with that.

Although u probably shouldn't punch him :D

Just ignore him.

If you try to do anything else, you'll probably come off as being as dweebish or as much of a dick as him, or worse. Don't compare yourself to him, just roll your eyes and do better than him in the class.

It also might not hurt to have sex with his mother, if she's a MILF.

I understand the somewhat irrational fear of a persons behavior. Reminds me of when I was a kid (about 12) there was this other kid on my schoolbus (about 10 probably) who was so annoying to me.

Whenever anybody entered the bus he would start yelling at them in his insanely annoying voice (it was permanently hoarse, in a very annoying way) for them to put on their seat belts. It's not really what I need when I just woke up at 7 AM and it's 100% pitch black outside.

I got annoyed easily as a youngling, but whenever he opened his mouth I felt the need to punch something. He just looked annoying, too.

Luckily i've gotten over that sort of immaturity... uh, yeah...

But on a serious note, don't worry about him. I'm sure he's annoying, but keep in mind that other people probably feel the same way. Eventually someone will take him down a peg.

You're jealous.

He's what you wish you were. Happy. Oblivious. He does all this stupid crap and "awkward" stuff, yet he's still completely happy with doing it. You want to punch him to teach him that what he's doing is wrong, and that he should feel bad about it, but he doesn't feel bad about it, and that's what you're jealous of. The ability to do something stupid, annoying, nerdy, whatever you want to call it, and not be ashamed or punished.

He's ignorant. And you want to punch him not because he's ignorant, but because you wish you were ignorant like him. It's like they say: ignorance is bliss.

You might succeed in shaming him if you try, like Torte did, but why? Just let him be. Unless he is actually hindering your potential, in which case you should try talking to him nicely.

This analysis of the OP's situation is both unreasonable and off-base. The guy OP describes is an annoying jack-ass who doesn't care that his actions and demeanors are irritating.

You do not have to resort to physical violence.

Wait for him to overreach and say something wrong in class and then completely and utterly destroy him in rebuttal. This assumes you have the capability to do so. I would speak in classes maybe once throughout their entire run, and only to make 'that person' who liked to hear the sound of their own voice realize just how far they were out of their depth.

This is why the best lectures are the ones that have little to no discussion time.

I don't actually wish the guy any harm - Like I said in my OP, I'm just being melodramatic here. It's just frustrating to have this peppy dude who thinks he knows everything talking over people who actually know what they are talking about, and poking his nose in everyones business (which I didn't really get in to in the OP).

I don't think it's jealousy at all, that's kind of silly. Why would I be jealous of someone who annoys everyone? It's got nothing to do with the fact that he says whatever he wants because he's care free. That's actually borderline stupid. I would just like him to sit down and be quiet.

The thing with my class is that it's self-paced, so everyone in the class is on different subjects. We recently had 7 new students come in. When the instructor does a lecture, sometimes it's for the benefit of the people who are a bit deeper in the class, sometimes it's for people who are brand new, so he explains basic concepts. My gripe, in this situation, is when the instructor is trying to convey practical applications for the OSI model (for example) in a really watered down way so as not to overly confuse the new guys, and Ned Flanders Junior pipes up with his super advanced knowledge and confuses the shit out of the rookies...with incorrect information. I wouldn't be so uppity about it if he was actually contributing to the lecture. We all take turns pitching in sometimes, if we have relevant information. It's the way that he does it, and the false information he tosses out, and just the disrespect for the instructor and the rest of the class by constantly interrupting.

my analysis:

its seems not the things he does that are annoying so to speak, but the way he does them

girls in particular are very sensitive and unforgiving to "wrong" bodylanguage, tone of voice, awkwardness, inappropriateness (by their individual definition), etc etc. it invokes negative emotions in them and causes them to react in a way not so dissimilar to how you're reacting

the best thing would be to try to get other peoples opinion of him (or god forbid confront him - indirectly, casually, however you want - the more you communicate with him the more youll be able to explore and understand him)

really you want to know a) does he realise he comes off as annoying and does he care about it or how does he justify it b) are you justified in feeling this way and if not how should you alter your perception of him to stop these negative reactions

its alright to laugh and say someones annoying as fuck but there is a problem if you cant/dont truely understand and justify why you feel this way. usually my first go-to is mental disorder (asperges, or any range of things). after that its just a case of avoiding him if you want to and trying not to cringe when he starts doing it :3

Jealously on some level, about something. There was a dude in a class of mine who was somewhat similar, and I realized later I was simply jealous that he was getting higher marks.

So does he get good grades? If so he seems pretty awesome, i like people who are able to keep up a bad attitude and still pass everything with flying colors. The nonchalance of playing Star Trek just adds to the positives for me.

This is the first time i've heard about punching people in the dick btw, has always been kicks and knees. This would indeed be a very awkward punch - do you lean in, slightly crouch, aim with a downward angle? Oh or is this a tale from the short side of life? Is this how HuK would settle business with someone who refuses to wrestle?

hrm im not very helpful, my best advice is talk with other people who are in your situation and see how they feel about it/him :3 dont feel afraid of standing up and saying "dude will you just let him finish for once!!!!" if you honestly do get frustrated. often the best way to deal with any problem is to actually freakin confront it !

(you need to have understanding and tolerance, but you need to balance this with listening to your own emotions and standing up for them if something pisses you off!!)

I would say overall he is lagging behind where he should be in class because he spends too much time playing games, his marks are C to B range, and once he told me that Final Fantasy 7 was garbage and 9 was better :O

Minus the playing games at workstation, not doing homework. Interrupt him when he interrupts the teacher.
Assist others before he assists them.

A lot of smart-assess did it at my university/CEGEP. Now I'm in their class and I either respond with: "That's a really interesting tidbit, but I came here to be lectured by the teacher, unless you want to explain what bla bla bla bla is."

Got him on the first day, now sits down and shuts up.

Got another one in my political class who kept talking about how he was from the United States and his electoral system. I sat next to him and everytime he stood up, I stoop up with him and debated about whatever he would interject with: 2 classes and now he's gone.

Just beat them at their own game.



That is winning right there.

If he plays Star Trek in class, I doubt he has a girlfriend.

It is best to just ignore things that you find distasteful.

He's just a guy who happens to be a certain way. Try just not hating him. Not blindly hating is a good (and surprisingly difficult) thing to learn. He'll make good practice.

You are obviously jealous of this guy, how he gives 0 fucks etc.

I would say instead of punching him in the dick, maybe you should work on either giving up on your idealized version of yourself that doesn't give a fuck, or try to be it somehow.
