Absolute pricks who goes to the library during the final week where most have exams or trying to finish an assignment and starts blaring music through their earphones and also talking the whole time........ jerks :mad::mad::mad:

rebecca1988

the pure lack of consideration some people have for others trying to do work

the people who get a massive pile of books taking up a desk and a half and open about one!!!!

the people that come to he library right before exams and to talk 2 everyone they see, if its not about college work then dont talk! i dont care about your love lives!!!!

wish library cop patrolled health science

xxpopopxx

I know, swear to god theres somethin wrong with them !

Even worse the other day in the jj library on the second floor, some b*tch for some reason decided to swap the chair to the opposite side the table meaning no one could sit at the table in front and she didnt even use a laptop !! :mad:

I know especially during exam times, but the again I have never seen robo cops round jj though....

First post I saw and its exactly what I was going to post. Do people not check how loud their music is playing. I've asked once in the last week for someone to turn it down and moved places about three times.

There is nothing more annoying than the barely there tinny scratchy sound of music being played loudly through earphones. Drives me absolutely mental!

My laptop is currently broken so I had to go into Newman to use the SUAS yokes. After 5 minutes of waiting for it to start up the background had the slogan; 'In a rush? Stand up and surf' or something along those lines. If I was in a rush the last thing I'd want to be doing is using one of them

Overature

People who insist on sitting on stair cases, get the **** out of my way

**Timbuk2**

People who talk on their phones in the library bathrooms, completely oblivious to the fact that they are more than audible to anyone studying near the bathrooms.

Ilyana

Electric hand dryers should not be in library bathrooms....screw the environment :P

psychward

librocop who keeps walking up behind me and looking over my shoulder coz Im in an area of the library where laptops are banned. So now Im not being distracted by a laptop . Instead I'm bein distracted by feckin nosey librocop .

ff9999

Bitchy Mc-Constantly-on-the-rag in the short loan section of JJ who insists on wearing a mask as if she was in danger of contamination

I have crossed paths with her too many times. On another note... talking about First World Problems :rolleyes::rolleyes:

rebecca1988

Idiots who walk into the library two days in a row after twelve o clock and glower intimidatingly at anyone sitting at a desk with a plug. Of course there aren't any damn plug desks left! Get out of bed like the rest of us or go and jump your laziness is not my problem! He then proceeds to walk around the fourth floor like a lost soul as if someone is going to leave at twelve in the afternoon! Staring you out of it every time he passes. No. I won't get intimidated and move you arrogant son of a *****! Go to hell! :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Guy watching friends beside me is not nearly as annoying as guy staring me out of it when I'm one of the few people actually working in here... :rolleyes:

psychward

People who hog the few library desks which have plug sockets and then ignorantly use them to rant on boards instead of actually working :pac:

Thankfully I'm doing an MA and I don't have to go anywhere near JJ over the next few weeks but I hated when absolute contemptible arseholes would leave books/laptops/jumpers on a desk with a plug and then go off for an hour to have their lunch. Getting up at 2AM or having had to drive in from Westport is no excuse!

You think he would stare the guy out of it who isnt working. Say something to him next time you catch him staring.

If the people sitting beside you with vibrating phones, loud music blaring through earphones, having the chats for ages with someone about their love life are irritating some of ye so much - why don't you just ask them to stop?

I did one day in the form of Im atrying to f-ing study. It worked some people are just stupid and need to be shouted at.

I personally will, and have, told them to shut up but it depends on the person studying and the group/people talking.

There are just some people who if you ask them to either shut up or to be quiet they will take more pleasure in being more annoying and distracting.

The girl sitting next to be hogging the plug while being on twitter for the last 2 hours straight. YES YOU, I HOPE YOURE READING THIS.

I don't understand this. My mate was moaning earlier in the library about having no plugs whilst I just sat in Quinn with about 5 free spaces around me that had plugs. There are other places to study in ucd.

When I was an undergrad, I could never do essays in the Library, used to crush my soul. (between the cold and the shouted whispers.. :rolleyes:)

Then I did a Masters, and the masters only section was an absolute godsend when I was working on my thesis. Its away from the rest of the library, has lots of computers/laptop spaces. Only thing is, you need to book it. Well worth it though.
