I also have a great amount of sympathy for those of us in this class who are more fundamentally challenged. The ones who seem to suffer from a complete lack of etiquette and common courtesy as well as from peculiar eating disorders. I get it, that home life must have supremely difficult, and the public school system was so lacking that no one taught you how to behave in public, and, specifically, how to eat in public. And how not to.
Food selection: if you are so unable to time manage appropriately, and/or you are utterly incapable of waiting for the break to eat, may I be so bold as to recommend to you what not to bring as your dish of the day?
Tuna sandwiches: they stink up the entire room
Deli sandwiches: see above
Apples, pineapples and other crunchy fruit: your helpless classmates are here to study. We want to hear the professor, not the gnashing of your teeth and the crunch crunch crunch
Chips: Really? I mean, really? Refer to above point about the noise. But to add, you’re dying of hunger, and you choose to stuff your face with a bag of chips? Out of all available food options? It’s not very healthy, you know.

Thanks, however I actually AM a lesbian. I can
understand how you might hate lesbians, or feel angry
in regards to lesbians, but maybe you should lurk a
bit more? I really am quite queer.
Thanks, though!
The forum post: He's not scary because he comes from the Bronx. He's scary because he's one of those dudes that only wears a trenchcoat and gropes people on crowded trains.
The dude's response:
Was the sort of nasty lie, said so casually, yet so viciously, that makes me wonder what happened in your life to make your Soul become so oriented towards trying to offend others, when there is so
much goodness which you instead could aspire towards. I really pity you for your feeling that you have to play to the lowest instincts the way that you did in your post. You ought to apologize to me
and to everyone who read your crap! You obviously know nothing about me, if you can believe the nonsense that your hate fevered brain dreamed up.
