Whistling boys always come to even worse ends if I have my way

[slemslempike]

NO. No, there is never an occasion to whistle in the office, never ever ever. Stop it. It's piercing and I hate you.

Why did the students have to come back? Especially the one I detest for no real reason other than the fact that he looks arrogant.

Note to self: do not work in the same office as slemslempike

Seconded.

I've decided that I don't care if it looks unprofessional to be wearing honking great headphones at work. Anything that prevents me having to listen to the conversation topics of the students in my labs is a *good thing*.

I have my earphones in! I'm listening to Virgin Classic Rock! I can still hear the stupid oik whistling.

Are they earbud earphones or Princess Leia headphones? I find wearing the Princess Leia 'phones blocks out more than earbuds.

Perhaps a garrote is required?

I hate students. Yes, really.

You're not alone.

I hate these students. And I miss how nice and quiet the uni (and swimming pool) is during holiday time. Roll on June!

Looking arrogant is ALWAYS a good reason to detest someone.

[biascut.livejournal.com]

sadly, it's also occasionally been a reason to fancy someone.

[jeejeen.livejournal.com]

I'm sure I don't know what you mean.

[circumlocute.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that too...

[jendleberry.livejournal.com]

I wholeheartedly agree. Now term has started again, the flatmate who whistles tunelessly in the corridor in the middle of the night has returned. Students are crap.

It's just these students I hate. I resent them - why do I have to work in an office filled with Master's students who are allocated their own desk, computers and phones? This would never happen in the humanities!

Hah. Someone in my office pops/cracks chewing gum almost constantly, and has the most annoying ring tone ever (yes, even worse than the Nokia tune). He's not doing it at the moment, though, so you can be the Most Annoyed Person In An Office if you want to. I'll fight you for it if he starts again, though ...

HAH. Be grateful I don't work in your office. I came back from London last summer whistling Brunnhilde appearing to Siegmund.

I can't whistle properly but I sometimes make a happy hissing noise through my teeth which is probably much more irritating.

However, I always despise myself when I find myself not able to like someone because I don't like their face. It doesn't happen too often, but there is a certain sort of vacuous appearance which i can hardly bear to look at. There was a woman in my last choir who looked like a badly coloured 1930s photograph - curly and yellow and wishy washy and I could not have found it in myself to love her under any circumstances.

I know. I am so shallow.

I was once on a summer school thing with a girl who had a really bland face - I kept looking at her and thinking "but you can't have a personality". It's horrible, but she just looked so vacant.

But I wouldn't be able to hear your happy hissing noise throught my earphones, which is what happens with the evil whistler.
