Lol, this so interesting @meesterboom. You've totally reminded me of past days. I could remember when I was about registering myself for high school and unluckily for me, I met someone like Alfie. It gets annoying when he keeps talking without a sign of taking a breath and to make it worst, all he is saying doesn't make sense or relate to the matter on ground. Ohh, I regretted my registration and luckily for me, we had to study different course.
That's a good move, sometimes all we can do is get the hell out of there and avoid the chatterers!!
