Alright class, find a partner to work with!

God I fucking hated this shit.
The teacher always fucking hinted that we were going to do this stupid partner bullshit, and you take a look around the class, the normalfags seemed to be in some sort of hivemind mode where they signal each other who their partners are going to be.
Young impressionable me had know clue what the hell was going on, the instant the teacher screech out "find a partner" is the very instant everyone but me disappears in a flash to sit next to their partners.
The classroom numbers are always odd for some reason, despite having an even number of classmates, there will always be 1 or 3 that stays off, never 2, never 0.
Why am I condemned to being the odd one out?

My classes usually had an even number so I got stuck with whoever else couldn't find a partner. One of my other teachers had the right idea and just said work with the person next to you.

>don't do a thing
>teacher eventually pairs me with someone
Not playing this stupid game

I have inside info that's its just so they have half the number of projects to grade

I once actually cried because of this
In class

I actually got in trouble multiple times for not pairing up. I simply didn't bother. Everybody in class was already paired up, so I simply worked by myself.

It's a no-so-subtle way of ostracising a particular individual without looking like an evil bitch.
They always pull out some bullshit excuse of "in the real world they have to work as a team", which isn't true in the slightest.

Can is a permissive. You'd think people with a Masters in English wouldn't correct wrongly.

Nah I will work with my hands.

>*walks out of class and goes to the special ed class*
>*does work alone in there*
>*claims its because of anxiety/mental illness*

what's the normal thing to do? thats what I always did, also got to do tests and whatever other work I wanted to do in that class

its because they made previous arrangements to be partners whenever you dumb autist.

Great job teach

All of a sudden they're shocked to find out my lack of sympathy for school shooter victims.

I never understood the anxiety surrounding this, I liked being forced into groups just to piss people off. Just pair up with the other person who couldn't find a partner, "guess I'm stuck with you." If there's an odd number of people, ask the teacher, she would either let you work by yourself, tell you which group to join, or ask you to pick a group and make a group of three. Last option could cause some friction eg "ew no" but then you force yourself on them, not like they can do anything.

I actually liked forcing myself into groups I knew hated me, I was known for high grades and tried to tell people what to do. There were a few times where I stayed up all night and did literally the whole group project within 24 hours of it being assigned, printed out a copy for each group member, brought it in and went over it with them

holy shit you sound like a scumbag

The thought of being deliberately annoying sounds so chadlike in your mind but comes across as incredibly autistic in reality.

>Just pair up with the other person who couldn't find a partner
>50% chance of that even occurring and odds are he won't want to
>she would either let you work by yourself
>never happens because teachers do this on purpose

>you'll just get told to walk up to a group and ask, then get rejected and repeat for the entire class
>ask you to pick a group and make a group of three

Worked out well actually. Every time I worked with anyone else in the class, I ended up doing all the work because I was the only one who knew the stuff

>Do all the work because I don't trust them to do it well

I had a similar thing when I was 17. We had to do a chemistry presentation about something we found interesting in chemistry.

Mine was about dangerous chemistry (most reactive chemical, most poisonous, worst smelling etc.) and I got first prize, still happy about it.

>get paired with the slacker
>slacker flat out refuses to do anything
>do project and only put my name on it
>tell teacher slacker did nothing
>fails me for leaving him out and gives him an A

Do you get graded on group projects in burgerland? That's really unfair.

That's what I did, but its because I don't like people. People did try to work with me, though.

This too. I'm not going to jeapordize my grade because a bunch of retards don't want to do the work

I hope to God this is made up.

oh god i didnt ask for this feel tonight

>be in univeristy
>go to class
>be only guy in class with over 30 women
>teacher says do group work
>one girl group takes me out of pity
Did I became a normie?

Chris Chan had many gal pals, would you consider him a normie?

Depends on the project and the teacher. If you clearly did all the work and the group didn't than they may get a poor grade, but typically as long as the finished project is good then everyone gets a good grade regardless of how much effort went into it

(s)he is more popular than me so.........

I'm in the UK. I had a lab this year where we had to delicately dissect a frog and attach electrodes to it's heart raised out of it's body by a system of hooks and strings.

I volunteered to do it immediately because the other 3 looked like idiots and we only got one chance at it.

We had group projects in bongland but they were never graded, because of this, I was able to force the slacker to do his equal share of the work.

I meet my first gf this way

>this thread
what's the big deal? i was always left alone and the teacher had to find a group for me.
don't say that you guys are depressed because of that

Well fuck, if it isn't graded I wouldn't do anything either, what's the point of that?

Popular is the wrong word to use in this context.

We really did learn to become mindless drones.

It's the embarrassment of always being without a partner.

Ironically I love being in charge of group projects. Every one I have been in I took control of instantly and no one objects. 3.6 GPA so I'm doing something right.

yeah I know, and then the gorup would snicker and whisper every time you're not looking at them.

I don't think most of us were born a hopeless loser.

People may call you an asshole here but you are a good guy, user.

Except he literally did all the work for the group that hated him so much.
He may be the opposite of a Chad, but he's not a good guy at all, a good goy maybe.

Being kind to people that hate you is the Chaddest thing of all chads in my book

so? being without a partner in a school test really made your life worse and unbearable to live?
this never happened to me. although i could easily say by their facial expressions that they hated me for being in their group.

No, that's called being a cuck. It's hard not to use that word when it's so easy to describe him that way.

>partner in a school test
You aren't supposed to have a partner in a school test.

This really sucked the life out of me in elementary school.

I didn't even have God to turn to when I realized that people weren't good at all.

he's not only being nice to them (the chad thing to do) he's being nice out of spite (the robot thing to do)

he's the holy unity of chad and robot.

Chad is only nice to people who respect him. Do any robots genuinely have contempt over chads? I don't think so.
Being nice out of spite is oxymoronic and retarded.

I don't have contemp for chad, he's a nice dude. brad is a mean fucker though.

He's acting like a brad instead of a chad

Acting nice to people that hate you is literally the beta-male strategy though.

Brad would be the slackers themselves making the outcast do all the work. Chad would be the one who would can convince everyone through charisma alone to do their equal share of the work.

user WORKING ALONE IS NOT ALLOWED GO JOIN ONE OF THE OTHER PAIRS. WHO WANTS TO WORK WITH user? IF I DON'T GET VOLUNTEERS I WILL ASSIGN HIM TO ONE OF YOU.

Are the teachers intentionally inept when they think that someone will actually volunteer to be with "that kid"?

plebian

Antisocial? Did you commit arson or some shit?

They are taught in college to emphasize group work and force reluctant students in to it as much as possible. Being socially avoidant is a trait teachers shun in their students. I'd like to think that maybe that will change in future but for now they keep doubling down on the idea that group work is all. This came about with the feminist incursion in to all levels of the public school system in the late 80's.

>make friends
get out

clearly he meant asocial ffs, use your brain

being a robot doesnt mean you have no social skills

It boils my blood when people call themselves antisocial when they're really asocial.

well you clearly knew what he meant
I suppose you also bitch out people who say they're schizo when they either mean schizoid, schizophrenic, or schizoaffective too, right?
or do you only do that for anti/asocial people?

should have just stood in the back or some shit. You honestly brought it on yourself there

So the teachers have to do less work themselves. Same for group work, which is almost always just 1 or 2 people (depending on the size of the group) of the group working.

There is a 1% chance I will become a teacher. What do you suggest when forming groups instead? Maybe doing it randomly

Only form groups if you know for sure that everybody there has at least 1 friend they can count on.

put everyone's name into a hat and then every two picks are partners.
Or just let them pick their friends because like 28/30 people will be happy whereas everyone will likely be unhappy if you pick at random
