I hate 'em - I was one myself until just over six months ago though - so why do I not like 'em?
Read on...
I was not yer typical pot-smoking, panda impersonating mopey goth type student... I was a 30-od year old former Nursing Assistant, employed by the NHS, training to be a nurse.
I didn't mix drinks and go clubbing - I preferred a nice long walk, followed by a toasted teacake and a brew when I returned home.
I didn't stay out after going to University (I NEVER call it 'Uni' - I hate that expression) - I always got the train after the lectures finished... and sometimes even get on the right one!
What's worse - I was classed as a 'mature student'!
So it's the younger students I hate (grr! miserable Victor Meldrew here!)
Why?
Here's my reasons:
1. Can't go longer than 2 sentences without saying 'actually'.
2. Moan that they never get enough time to hand work in - CHRIST! We got more holidays than the bleeding royals.
3. They think that every northerner who tells a joke MUST have got it from Peter Kay.
4. They talk more sh*te than a Scatological Lecturer in Faecal Studies.
5. They moan about pollution and stuff, yet soon shut up when they have the chance of a free lift.
6. They walk round with fluffy toys attached - I mean... what's all that about?
7. They reckon that they didn't bother revising when getting a really high mark (yeah right).
8. They go veggie for about 2 mins. then forget when p*ssed and have a kebab.
9. They always have Mummy and Daddy to fall back on whilst the rest of us are going to Tesco with bags of 2p and 1p coins to get the shopping in.
10. They like 'Spaced' without realising that it's utter sh*te!
AM I stereotyping? well actually yes, I rather think I am.
But I find it quite amusing actually! [/b]
;D
