There are many annoying types of people in the library, and they all suck. I have seen a few of these people, but who hasn't? Being in a college library does have its challenges all by itself, but dealing with these annoying people is the hardest challenge you will have to face while studying. I personally find it much easier to study at home, but from time to time I find myself inside the library to use the "free" stuff for projects or homework. Every time I go in there, I see more types of annoying people. Here are a few I've found on my travels:
The “I talk too loud on my phone about the party last night” guy.
Yes, we get it. You rage 24/7. Do I want to hear about how much you drank? Not while I'm studying for my physics test. It's called quiet hours for a reason.
The “I forgot my laptop, pencil, notes and, well, anything useful to contribute to this group assignment” guy.
If you are this guy and you're in my group, I'm going to say a few not so nice words to you, and the anonymous group rating? Ohhhh, you're going to get a zero (or a one if I'm feeling nice).
The “selfie” queen.
I don't want to hear the camera every three seconds. Click, click, click. We get it. You are snapchat beautiful, and those filters are on point for this library lighting. But this is a library, not a model agency. Please stop it. I have a calculus test in three hours.
The “I bring a lot of food to study with” guy.
This guy is almost perfect when it comes to library etiquette, except the loud chewing and swallowing coming from his table. I get it. You gotta get those carbs and calories, but seriously. This isn't a lunch room.
The “forgot his headphones but still listens to music anyway” guy.
Come on, man. If I wanted to go to a Taylor Swift concert, I would have bought tickets for myself and my girlfriend. But does it look like I'm in the mood for some "Bad Blood" tonight? No. I have a Spanish test in the morning.
“Mr. Netflix and chill” guy.
OK, I give you respect for being clever when your WI-FI went out but didn't want to cancel the date. But I don't want to see y’all’s chemistry. I want to pass my chemistry quiz, so stop being gross.
The “sleeping on the couch” guy.
You know who you are; drink some Starbucks or go home. Stop snoring and drooling all over my backpack. Go home and sleep in your bed, couch, floor, or whatever you want -- just don't take up my patience with your snoring.
The last person is you.
You should be out partying, but you're being responsible and studying hard for that physics or chemistry test, and that's annoying because it's quarter night at the local watering hole. Congrats to you, young adult! Quick question…do you have a quarter, bud?
