Lecturer

I have found something to hate. Something to despise with a firey passion.
That something.... Is one of my lecturers.

Oh. My. God. I hate this person.

I am not going to disclose his name, as he seems the type of person to search for his own name in google as a past time, but just know that I don't like this guy. Simply put, I really hate his lecturing style. Now heres why:

The Subject
Maybe I just realyl dislike the subject and find it really boring but I doubt this is the only thing. Today I had my first lecture which involved combining Psychology with this subject. Psychology I find to be incredibly interseting and enjoyable to study, the way he taught it though could convince me to undergo seppuku on even the happiest of Morns. We were taught stuff that I had already learnt, which obviously not everyone learnt as not everyone did Psychology. Fair Beans, I thought. Now in these circumstances I get bored easily, as I already know whats being said, but the way he taught it made my blood boil out of sheer boredom.

Off-Tangent much?
The lectures go on for 2 hours. Firstly, as someone who studies psychology, I know this is too long for people to pay attention. This isn't his choice though so no hardship on that. However, his lectures could be over in thirty minutes if he didn't spend so much time going off topic and talking about god know's what else. I don't mind this if its interesting, it's not that I have a hard time keeping track of the different conversation topics, it's just that when he does go off topic it is about the most boring, most unfunny, most... stupid of things. It's not surprising I spent most of last year playing Tetris on my phone.

Attendance-freak
I dislike the ammount of control this guy likes to have over his lectures. He has a bleeper to read your card to determine whether your in the lecture or not. With other lectures, where they have paper registers, you could obviously ask someone to tick your name for you, but with this bleeper your card has to be present. He also makes sure you go to these 'tutorial' sessions which are, not only badly timed (meaning I should come into Uni when I have no other reason to be there) but they add to the ammount of boredom I must endure. If you don't attend these your marks go down... Great.

Smarm
This guy emitts it in clouds. Smarm. He tries far too hard to be nice to the point where it looks, sounds, and feels fake. These people automatically annoy me. Not nice people. People who are unnaturally nice and... greasy about it too. Its hard to convey in words but I hope you know what I mean.

Humour
Everyone has a different sense of humour, not everyones is to everyone elses taste. I like a lot of humour, from black humour to silly humour. This guys sense of humour is just... I don't know but it's annoying. The only people who laugh with it are those being polite or trying to kiss up to him.

Omni-presence
This guy is everywhere, in every lecture. So far in this course I have had FOUR modules, THREE of which were taught by this guy. ONE wasn't even part of the same subject really, it was part of Sociology. Why is he everywhere? Maybe ONE lecture of his would be alright. But when I imagine me taking this subject for the next THREE years and he is, by this rate, going to be teaching 3/4 of the lectures. I am going to die.

Enjoyability
I just cannot find these lectures enjoyable. I hate going to them. I really, really, really, hate them. But I want the mark on my Degree, saying I took this subject, but... I don't know if I can endure them.

There, I found something to hate for a change.
