Bookmark Removed

It's reading week and k-stressful. Muthafucka strolls by me with his shit, plops into the carrell across from me and then-- CLICK! CLICK! CLICK!

Do I ice this dood, or take a walk?

Can anyone defend clipping nails in a uni library?

just walk by him, stop for a moment, and say, "dooood."

I should bring one of those electric nose-hair trimmers in here and get busy, I'm sure that'd get some looks.

I've actually witnessed this technique backfire pretty severely, and it was immensely funny and gratifying. I'll pray you get the same satisfaction.

impersonate someone else and leave a long profane message on his voice mail

Just clip your toenails in front of this person with a smug expression that says: "Now *I'm* the annoying one, huh? HUH?"

Walk over to his cube and fart, then move to the other end of the library.

Oh the visions.

If we would pull their nails out, that would solve the problem entirely.
