Most Annoying Student Behaviors

Not sure if these have been mentioned, but:

The people who act super ready and super excited for everything. We had our first PoliSci test two weeks ago, and the entire class walked in groaning except for this girl who just kept saying, “Let’s rock this test! I’m so ready for this, let’s do it!” I understand enthusiasm, but just keep it to yourself. Especially don’t do it for the teacher.

The people who consistently show up late to class, then ask questions about the material we covered while they were not there. Especially annoying questions.

There’s one kid in my Econ class that literally has a conspiracy theory about everything. I don’t even know where he gets his information from. I usually tune him out but today he was debating with the teacher about the Central Bank of the United States, and how the people running it say it’s a federal thing and it’s really not, they’re just using the cover of “federal” to get away with breaking the law. The teacher said something to the effect of “well, Congress is in charge of overseeing the Central Bank, so that’s not true.” (again, I was tuned out) and the kid said, “So congress is breaking the law, right?”
