Someone did sometimes similar to my group for other reasons*. He insisted, during prep, that he was the "group leader" (no such thing) and that he was to be the point for all questions. So, I stepped behind him when question time started, and let it happen. This lass kept firing off question after question. It took everything out of me not to laugh after the third round of questions, but I'm sure I let a few smirks loose (I'm no god, after all). After 7 or 8 miltipart questions, he gave up and stomped off, all red in the face. After he was gone, I waiting a few seconds to make sure he wouldn't return, then asked if there were any other questions. I made eye contact with her, she smiled and said, "nope. I'm good". She was kind and in topic the whole time, so prof didn't intervene. Best econ class I ever took, at uni or elsewhere.
*The lad I was presenting with was a notorious wanker. There were some rumors, too, but I won't get into that.
If they're true (which I'm assuming they are), it's her story to tell and not mine. If true (again, assuming so), he was a class A wanker that deserves a fuckton worse than she dealt that day. Let's leave it at that.
Edit. If she sees this post and feels compelled, she can share. Likelihood is slim, but not zero. She's definitely on Mastodon and probably still on Lemmy.

Did he... Spit on a child? Burn a girl's underwear? Glue someone's letterbox closed?
(I understand. You don't need to tell me. I just felt like improvising.)

They’re talking about unconsensual sex. Pretty common when you put together horny teenagers that live away from home for the first time.

this is the real reason teachers assign group presentations
can’t learn a topic any better than if you’re learning it to get revenge

Was it an edible so you shut up for a specific amount of time while you were zonked out of your gourds?

Most food is edible, by definition
Larkas@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 128d
I’d even go as far as saying most things are edible. It’s just that many things are only edible once.
