To the dude sitting beside me in the library at the computers:

Your music on your headphones can be heard by all around. I do not want to have to listen to blaring Lady Gaga in the library.

Also, I don’t want to sit here and watch your damned stuff while you go out for a smoke. Take care of your own shit. I’m glad I said no and I’d do it again. —Needs Quiet

  1. Fake bitch, nobody who listens to lady gag-me knows what a library is.

    Point out that it’s a library. If that doesn’t work, next time he goes out for a smoke, throw all his stuff into the Lades Washroom :>)

  2. another good use for a library, just a listening post for shit noise music, gag. oh, and tell them loudly to turn it the fuck down, just like that o.p.

  3. Ugh people’d do that all the time at the library (or anywhere else on campus where people used their craptops) at acadia. And they’d ask you to watch their shit for “a minute” and be gone for an hour. I didn’t really mind it all that much while someone went to the washroom or went to get a book or whatever, but I’d always tell them that I didn’t know when I had to leave and they got the point that I wouldn’t be babysitting their shit all day. And I never really liked the idea of being ‘responsible’ for some random’s computer, which is why I never asked people to watch my crap for me.

    The smarties who wanted to leave over and over would get a private or group study room which they could lock when they had to go grab a book (I’d do that all the time when I was doing research and had to go to different floors looking for crap of even if I wanted to go grab some food during a whole day of studying).
