There's this obnoxious know-it-all in my history class tonight.
I already yelled at her once. The professor TRIES to control her, and can't. She starts to talk to herself when she's cut off and keeps going. The entire class has had it.
Yes, she's an older woman, and if it wasn't for the fact she was uncontrollable and incorrect 99.9% of the time, I wouldn't care. I'm a fan of non-traditional students, but this hen is batshit to the max.
Here she is, trying to tell my professor that the Magna Carta was King John being tried by a jury of his own peers. Yes, this is also the same woman who said that there were no boats in the Middle Ages.

The semester is almost over, and I feel like I've gained nothing from this course except how to drink a couple glasses of wine before hand as anger management.
How do I get her to SHUT THE FUCK UP by not undermining my professor, and not sending her to the hospital? I've walked out of this class twice already because of her.
Perhaps you go old school.
It's been a long time since anyone used the Turkey Curse...
You can tell her "Shut up and let the professor teach. Thanks."
Acid + coffee = peace offering :evil:
Unimportantly, I am puzzled as to who would be a king's "peer". :?

I tried that like the 2nd class in when she interrupted me. I should have just dropped when I had the chance.

Complain to the dean. You paid for the professor to teach, and the professor isn't being allowed to teach.

I'm letting the department chair know this week when I go in for advising.

I think that was my professor's bewilderment as well. I wish I could have gotten her on vid the day she went off on an anti-Islam tangent.
The solution is simple.
The next time she pulls this shit, use a loud "No." Repeat in volume and utter no other words. Communication is futile, do not bother to attempt.
When she's eventually shut up (Persistent idiots may last up to 15 "NO." I've never had to get past 20) indicate the teacher to continue.

I concur, and may save this one for myself.

I like this one. I am also going to be dropping a piece of Illuminati "literature" on her desk, as I always get to class before she does.
I promise you, it feels great.

If you're feeling especially brutal, I have found that saying "See? This is why nobody likes your ass." is usually effective.
I like the "no" approach.
An easier version of the "no" tactic would be having this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKI-tD0L18A) ready on your phone whenever she is around, and playing it when she tries to speak.
If she tries to speak once it is done, just replay it until she gets the message.
:lulz:
pinch her mobile when she's not looking and text "my body is ready. I'll let you cumm in my month" to 7274924110 then stick it back in her handbag

LOVE NIGER THE BETTER.
This is an accurate description of 90% of my classes at the university. The solution that seems to be in place for decades now there is to simply exclude them of any meaningful discussion and/or not socialize too much with them. The less people they have who would even consider listening to their ideas the more wary they are to share them with professors. At least it works (kind of) here.

That usually works for a couple of days, at least.
I would definitely complain to the head of the department. If a student is disruptive to the point where it is impeding other students learning, they should be removed from the class.
TBH, she sounds like she's got some mental illness going on.

:spittake:
Oh, btw, my professor basically told her to STFU.
He couldn't get a word in, and when she shouted, "I HAVE A QUESTION!"
He responded, "What is it NOW? How many angels can dance on a pinhead?!"
The class lost it. If she interrupts me during my oral report on Tuesday, I am going to tell her to can it. I did tell the department chair, she said that she's aware of who it is, but apparently, she's a big time donor. Some crazy old coot who has too much money and decided to go back to school in her 70s. I'm pretty sure I had to deal with her before in the financial aid department a few years ago if my memory serves. She expected a full ride for being elderly and an A-B student from high school back in the Dark Ages, so she can't be THAT rich...or just greedy.
