I like Sociology but Sociology majors are annoying

So now I'm thinking maybe I don't want a sociology minor. For anyone who doesn't know, I'm taking Sociology of Aging and it's one of my favorite classes this semester. The only drawbacks thus far have been a few people talking really loud at inappropriate moments (like when there's a lecture going on or when another student is trying to talk) and Fatty McGee in the front row who's sole purpose in class is to try to waste everyone's time with inapt comments and try to offend everyone, particularly women in the class. So Tuesday our professor gave us feedback forms and today she went over our responses. But no, she didn't do most of the talking. She went over some topics that people suggested she change, but 5 or so people wouldn't shut the hell up about the test format. They were not even raising their hands, interrupting the professor, and not really talking about anything! They tried to suggest, no, tell her to do things like give us two hours for the test or give us a 25 question test and only count 20 answers! Where do we go to school again? Fundamental middle school? No, University of Florida dammit! Grow the hell up and learn to study! (Yeah, yeah, I should talk) And guess what? Fatty wasn't even there! But thank God you know he would have been more annoying than all the other people put together! I know I'm putting "aggravated" as my mood, but I really feel more relaxed to be out of there and on a nice little break before my next class. Shit like that just happens in Sociology classes I guess. I can deal with it, I just need to remember to always bring a book with me just in case. Any pre-law people who are looking for a major? Try Sociology, they like to argue. As long as you don't mind arguing about petty crap you will get plenty of experience.
