Eating in Class

[DevilishlyHandsome49]

Hearing someone eat loudly today in my class reminded me of how much this happened during high school and middle school.

Its always that one person who sits there and instead of having a notebook or a piece of paper on the desk, they have a wrapper with a sandwich on it and a big bottle of whatever and just have a lunch break right during class. Then when they're confronted by it, they say "But I'm hungry"

Bitch, we're all hungry! The difference between us and you is that we have enough respect to not eat during class and distract us by how loud the food is and by reminding us how hungry we are. Wait until after class like the rest of us.

And really, could they not have eaten something before class? How late are you that you can't even eat a fruit snack or a granola bar?

The only time I'd excuse eating in class is if you're keeling over from hunger or you have a medical condition that requires you have some sugar intake. Even then, those people use quieter foods and remain considerate of others

But no, the others got potato chips in a crinkly bag or candy. Things of iced tea that they gulp down loudly. Some peanut candy that fills the whole room with the scent of peanuts (and I'm pretty sure that could be a problem for someone who has an allergy)

And finally...why eat in a classroom? I never see any of these people wash their hands or use a bottle of hand sanitizer before they start eating. Nope, just eat off of a nasty ass school desk. Sitting around people sneezing and the teacher probably spitting while they're talking. Damn

[Crunchy]

I would lose my mind if people did that in my classes now, I'm not sinking myself into 30 years of debt to listen to people chew . :l

Is this more or less annoying than people on laptops who don't know how to type properly?

I haven't ran into those people yet so I can't say. I know people who bring their laptops to class when there's really no need to use them. Its like...two sentences worth of notes on the board. They can't write that down in a notebook or something?

[Vaer]

I admit; I was one of these during college courses.

I did that all the time in History class in highschool because I had no lunch period one year

I'd try to get to that class early though and finish before it started

[Kaizan]

This only really happens in my morning classes. Some people will bring in a bagel or a muffin which isn't too bad. Most people at my school can wait it out for lunch though

[Sidewalk Surfboard]

I don't usually mind it, unless they bring an entire fucking lunch to class.

Get out! >:V

You got it. :v

Eating pussy or cock is one thing...

But there used to be a guy in class who would eat an orange every day but he wouldn't peel it. 

He would just eat the whole thing including the peel. 

[Ginpanther]

People who eat during conference calls are the worst. Speakerphones pick up every single crinkle of a potato chip bag and every disgusting slurp of soup.

I'm sure he was very .... regular .... in the bathroom. And probably very citrus-y.

He would bite into it like it was an apple.

ewwwwww!

This is the sort of maladjusted individual who will also eat unshelled peanuts whole, I think.

Exactly. 

Must be like shitting broken glass. 

[grassfed]

Eating in class never really bothered me in general, it's more so constant rustling of chip bags and chewing with your mouth open that would drive me nuts.

I bring chicken wings in a foil pouch. 

I lick my fingers and smack my lips. 

Then I wipe my hands on people's coats.

I have the urge too slap you after "I lick my fingers and smack my lips"

Gah! Hate smacking!

Oyi! I do that! Not in class, tho. (Given I haven't been in a class for a long time.)

As for the way the orange is eaten; the peel of an orange is actually very interesting. When you chew on the raw peels enough, it changes the way your tongue senses things. It makes sweet things very salty and bitter, but salty things (like salted popcorn) gain a strange quasi-sweet taste.EDIT: I've only tried this with mandarin/clementine oranges. The little ones. 

I know orange peels are also used in cooking, but I don't know if the effect is removed or lessened when it is prepared. I have chewed on orange peels (only after eating the orange the regular way) on occasion.

 

Exactly.

Nah, not really. I never noticed a difference.

Okay, so now that I have one of you captured and available for study, the scientific community at large must know: why? Dear god, why?

Speed and efficiency. I'm consuming it largely for the taste of salt anyways. Plus, less clean up!

When I'm around people who don't like loud eating I eat even louder and bang my fists on the table. 

I also yell at the waitress and call her "sugar tits."

[Revates]

There used to be this kid I sat next to in math c and he'd eat biscuits and get the crumbs everywhere. Like dude, I don't want your damn crumbs all through my book.

I know your pain. It annoys me as well.

[Clove Darkwave]

It continues to mystify me why people can't keep their mouth closed while chewing. Truly a secret of the cosmos.

[Wrecker]

Who cares, there was a guy that would get the whole breakfast deal... Bacon, eggs, hash-browns and the like every day.

You should have seen that guy's books by the end of it, there's only so much wiping a paper towel is going to take care of, it was fucking grease central station...

I love the smell of bacon, but every day right in the AM, it got a bit overboard...

Couldn't blame him, though, he woke up every day early as fuck and drove 2 hours to make it to school. He finally had an opportunity to spend every day with his kids instead of working weeks on end up north, and he took it.

Who gives a fuck if somebody eats in class, though? It's really not a big deal.

It can be a big deal if it proves too big a distraction. People with food allergies, loudness of food, people chewing and drinking loudly...

I slurp my beverage.

For maximum sound. 

Then after I go "ahhhhhhhhhhhh!"

I also accidentally drop my fork so the waitress has to bend over to pick it up. 

Then I give the thumbs up when I see her ass. 

[Alexxx-Returns]

The guy sat right in front of me during one of my third year exams was chewing gum for the entire 2-hour exam. Smacking, slurping, open-mouthed chewing. It drove me mad. I did pretty badly on that exam too, not at all surprised.

[Luka]

No place I've studied at has ever allowed for students to eat during classes. Maybe it's an American thing?

[Vallium]

i used to never eat in class except recently in college Ive caved to eating a bag of chips in class but as quietly as possible, Im typically starving and eat likeone full meal a day so...

Oyi! I do that! Not in class, tho. (Given I haven't been in a class for a long time.)

This guy doesnt pee in the shower and he eats shelled peanuts and orange peels, lets all point and sneer at him

[Azure]

ill eat loudly wherever i want kthx

[KookyFox]

Here it's only tolerated during long session exams. Do it in class and the teacher or the students will throw you out, only exception now that I'm at the University is for beverages, and at the mid class break in the morning (granted it's a 3hrs+ long class [rather standard]) where people won't mind (since it's during the break), even though it's strictly forbidden to eat or drink in class or lecture halls.

[Taikugemu]

I'm too busy getting annoyed by people talking loudly in class to notice it.

I do that too. I also click my pen constantly and my phone keeps making noises.

Tune it out.

I've spent the last 5 years listening to a bunch of fucking assholes fall asleep with their TV right up in volume; slamming every fucking drawer in their room for hours on end; having a huge god-damn party cracking beers and snorting rails, yelling and screaming over stupid fucking bullshit; running a shop-vac outside my room for an hour and a half because the washing machine figured it was going to dump all its water on the floor at 3am; and people literally coming through the wall over some bullshit fight they got into. Seriously, try having some fucking asshole get pushed right through the wall and practically into your lap 3 hours before you're supposed to wake up to go to work and with the other douchebag still trying to throw down. The walls in the camps up north are about 1-1/2" thick graciously.

I still had to piss in a cup over that pile of bullshit, and all I was doing was fucking sleeping.

It doesn't happen all the time, neither does some person that figures they're fucking hungry. Put up and shut up.

[Clove Darkwave]

ITT: People are annoying assholes in public sometimes so I feel justified in being an annoying asshole sometimes.

[#00Buck]

When I eat the Pusi I make just as much noise. 

I also click my pen and talk on the phone constantly while I do that too.

That is fucking perfect, I got a good laugh out of that :D

[Zop]

I hook up portable speakers to my tablet and listen to music while I complain about how boring the class is on facebook

[MissFleece]

I understand if you have back to back classes and only have time to run and get lunch but not eat it before class. However, when you buy the smelliest, grossest, sloppiest thing to eat, fuck you. 

I honestly don't see eating during class to be a huge issue, especially if it's just a banana or something. We're all adults... If you can't handle some minor inconveniences without raging perhaps you need to grow up a little.

[Zaraphayx]

I feel bad for you people who let your moods be dictated by little annoyances and distractions because you'll never make it in the real world where all of these things are just a fact of life.

[Eggdodger]

I sometimes walk around in the halls, eating bananas and making eye contact with people as they pass. It's always a hoot.

[Pignog]

not readin any of this but 2 thumbs up @ buck's moron classmate who just eats orange peels like a fucking biomatter absorbing tyranid
