Back Again

Hey, I have a meeting soonish, so this will be a brief post. Any content is good content right?

1. Stan and I are in the same major at school. Our major is pretty much measured by our two capstone courses; these courses really test students and are pretty much the whole point of studying this major (imo). Stan was telling other people that he wanted to find a hard working group so that he wouldn't have to do any work in these courses. He also wanted to take them pass/fail.

2. Stan spent a long time bragging about "getting a Master's" in a semester. He changed this to getting an MEng in a semester after he got back to school, or graduating a semester early.
He told some people that his advisor told him he wasn't smart enough.

3. Stan tried to graph a temperature or pressure profile with a donut graph. Here is info on donut graphs: http://ib005.k12.sd.us/Excel%20WebQuest/donut_chart.htm

When he told me what he did, he complained:

"Donut graphs were so useless! It just made concentric circles!"

4. Stan and I are in the same extracurricular academic club. However, he has never done any work for his position...and thinks he's doing his job right. Our constitution allows people to nominate themselves for elections. Stan had taken advantage of this fact (and the willingness of seniors to play pranks on us) to get his position. He had this conversation with some other people:

Stan: "So, what're you gonna nominate yourself for?"
Girl: ".....I'm not nominating myself for anything...that seems pretty pointless."
Guy: "Yeah, if you have to nominate yourself for something, you're probably not going to get it anyway."
Girl: "Yeah...it'd also be kinda sad."

.....Stan....went....and nominated himself for pretty much every position he was eligible for. He, unsurprisingly, lost every election. He proceeded to tell our outgoing president the following:

"You guys should change the constitution so that if someone runs for almost every position, they should at least get something."

And walked out.

5. We had an exam where we were supposed to analyze a graph, use equations, and come up with constants in the equations. There was a given condition that made us able to do the problems. After the exam, Stan was yelling his methodology to a female classmate.

Stan: "Yeah, so you have that given condition?"
Girl: *Looks disinterested* "Sure."
Stan: "Yeah, then, you just take the numbers off the graph. So-"
Girl turns away from Stan. Like....full back to him.
Stan: *steps in FRONT of girl* "Boom, no math.

6. We were in the computer lab and the solutions to the exam were posted. Stan looked up the solutions and insisted that "everything looks familiar, so I'm sure I aced it." Despite the fact that there was, actually, some decent math.

7. Still in the same computer lab, he was supposed to finish a pset for his partner. He started talking about his waterproof phone to two people, and I started to burst out laughing and had to leave the lab for a good three minutes to calm down. When I reentered the lab, two of my friends looked at me and giggled, forcing me to leave for another three minutes.

8. We're all still in the computer lab, Stan walked up to a person who worked at our Co-Op location before we did and bragged about policy changes that we benefited from. Specifically vacation days. Stan talked about them for a long time.

9. Also in the computer lab, Stan bragged about the professors he has or has had during the summer to other kids. He most definitely has not progressed past two words on the pset.

Also, he's being annoying.

10. Aaaaand from a friend of ours:

Stan consulting with TA over something...TA looks tired
Other student: "Hey TA, I have a question."
TA: "On what?"
OS: "Just come over here. I need you to explain something to me."
TA leaves Stan and heads towards OS.
OS: "I actually didn't have a question, you just looked distressed talking to Stan, so I called you over."

Oh wait, I finished my posts. Yay! Fast typing! Hope this meets the usual quality.
