New frontiers in student stupidity

[muckefuck]

I'm walking back from lunch. I see a car parked off to one side with the driver's door ajar. There's a guy in the driver's seat and two more standing by the open door. I have a bad feeling, but I figure Who would be stupid enough to back out with his door ajar?

OH. MY. GOD.

He waited until I was right behind him, natch. I stood there for a moment thinking He's got to notice me but he continued not to, so I started saying "Yo! Yo!" to get his attention.

It wasn't easy, because he was on the phone the whole time. I finally had to walk up to the front seat and practically wave my arms in his face. The two guys standing nearby, who I assume were buddies of his, made absolutely no effort to stop him from running me down.

From now on, I'm calling this place "Midvale School for the Gifted".

You had two marks against you: (1) no phone, and (2) you were on foot. What more can you do to proclaim your status as a peon?

I have a phone, I just wasn't yakking self-importantly on it rather than paying some damn attention to what was happening around me. Which I guess amounts to the same thing as (1).

Clearly you need to work on your own sense of self-importance. What makes you think you're not good enough to ingore the world around you? Tell Dr. Owlet.

Uh...sorry, did you say something? I was gazing at my navel.

And a very handsome navel it is!
