By my third year of college, coming into pointless classes has become as appealing as having a threesome with Bill O'Riley and Martha Stewart. None the less, I have no choice but to go to these mind- fuckingly boring classes each day of the week. One particular computer class stands out as the most torturous class in the whole wide world. ( I kindly suggested to the professor that this description be added to the syllabus).
A brief note on the Professor I affectionately call Proff Nutmuncher: if confusing people until they contemplate suicide becomes and Olympic sport, Proff Nutmucher would beat Michael Phelps out with a bong. As you can see, this description alone makes me less than enthusiastic to drag myself from the comfort of my own bed (or someone else's) to class. While lugging my own body in on a Wednesday morning I begrudgingly scanned the EMPTY front row of computers and chose the second to last one to spend what I decided to be the last 45 min of my young life. This due to the fact that the class extends for 50 minutes and by minute 45 i usually have this nagging instinct to take a nose dive out the window. Nonetheless, I settled myself in and signed on to my facebook where I seeked out my friends in order to bid my final farewells. Then suddenly, while i was contemplating who to leave my prized Victoria Secret panty collection to, I felt someone lingering over my left shoulder. I turn my head back to find my creepy 50 year old Jamaican classmate staring down at my computer. He mostly keeps to himself so I was bewildered and creeped out by his blatant eye fucking of my computer screen.
"I want that computer." he states calmly.
After hearing his statement, I take a moment to scan the rest of the empty row of computers. As complete and utter confusion comes over me I manage to formulate, "This computer? You want MY computer?" While pointing to my own.
"No, that one." He evenly answers while pointing to the last one in the row. (the one between myself and the wall)
Annoyed that he even bothered speaking to me while I was planning my living will I quip, " Well go right ahead Princess I don't see how I'm in your way."
Not moving an inch he responds, "I don't want to share the space."
At this point I can't help but laugh right in his face. "Haha well sucks for you then, I don't see myself moving anytime soon. Settle down and continue to watch me sit here, ass"
With a look of slight disappointment he continues to march down the row and plop his hairy ass down at the computer of his choice, the one right next to mine. So here we are, alone, sitting in the empty row, he and I, by ourselves. After about ten seconds he starts mumbling to himself, then at the 20 second mark the smell of manure with a slight hint of AXE starts radiating off him and rapidly traveling in my direction. Soon, after another moment of awkward silence, I loudly announce...." Hmm ok well you know what? I kind of want to move now." I then proceed to move all the way down the row and let smelly Jamaican guy have "his space" and the 10 empty spaces next to him. From a safer distance I continued to openly mock him with the girls sitting behind me for the remainder of the class.
These days I continue to use class time to draft a living will because I am fairly certain Jamaican guy will come back to class with a machine gun next time. There are only a few people I can successfully use as a body shield before he gets to me and shoots me for laughing at him, Proff Nutmucher of course being at the top of the list. However I will say this, if he shoots me sometime in the beginning of class, it'll all be worth it.
