I was just wondering what all people have to live with in choir. In mine lately there's been this girl who sits in front of me, and she is being a total (excuse the blunt language) b***h.
One time me and my friend laughed at something out director said, and the girl turns aruond and says "You know, it's not THAT funny." and she did a preppy little head-wave and everything. =/ and then the next day, she kept repeating everything I said in a high-pitched little kid voice in an undertone to her friends, and they were having a good time of it, too. THEN today she turned around and told me and my friend to "please shut your mouthes, sweethearts" and then went back to chatting with HER friend, and persisting to talk through the piano pitches, and after the director shushed them two or three times, I leaned forward, tapped her shoulder, and said "Uhm, honey bunches, you need to be quiet so the nice man can plunk on his piano for us." o_O I couldnt help myself. She kept staring at me over her shoulder for AGES after that, and I said "'kay, either your neck is crinked, or my new hairdo is fricken mesmirizing. Scenario one: turn your a** sideways. Scenario two: take a fricken picture" >.< I've had just about enough of her, and she's only been a b***h for four or five rehersals... normally I'm more tollerant. Annnyyyways.
Ever had a problem like this?

I don't really have anyone that blatantly disrespectful of others in my choir... There are people who won't SHUT UP, but they don't act that stuck up!
I absolutely adored your comebacks, though. 4laugh

I have to agree. I love your comebacks. My smartass sucks comparatively.
And not really. This is kinda funny, as I'm choir president (basically, I'm the one in charge under the adult people), and so people should bug me. There are the girls that refuse to shut up, and there used to be a girl that had a serious problem with any sort of authority figure and spent most of her time debating with the director, but other than that, no.

Oh, look, my first post in the guild. X3
Ack. No, I've never had someone quite that annoying in choir with me, though I always try to remember that when someone imitates you, it's so they finally have something intelligent to say. (Not that that thought ever convinces me not to commit homicide.) Love on the comebacks, though.
The real reason I clicked on this, though, is to rant about this awful Soprano II two seats down from me. She always sucked up to our old choir director, and she hasn't gotten any better with the new one. This is blatant, terrible sucking up, the kind you stop doing in third grade because you know you're not cute any more. But she also has this nasty sarcasm thing going on (like your friend, Darkflame) so she has a Sardonic/Sycophant dichotomy. All in all, it doesn't add up to a lovely personality. I want to kick her every time she opens her mouth.
And she never, ever washes her hair. XP

She, too, lacks a shower on a regular basis.

People who lack in personal hygiene routines are yucky 4laugh
And these people sound absolutely horrid! Some of these things are personality traits of people I know, but not all rolled into one person!

We used to have a terrible problem with bad attitudes in our choir, but we got a new director this year, and he does not put up with the crap that our old dealt with....

There is a girl who sat in front of me last year who actually radianted stank. Seriously, she smelled so bad it was hard to work because I either couldn't breath, or kept sneezing. (refering to the showerless girl issue)

We were working on a spanish song, and there's this one girl who HATES MY GUTS, probably because her twin brother used to have a crush on me and I hated him, but ANYWAY.
She was stopping one of the girls who was directing us just to ask her how to pronounce a couple spanish words (and she's in Spanish class anyway), her excuse being that she was absent. I am a strong believer that if you're absent, then it's your job to figure out the things you've missed. I didn't really care if she asked 1 time and let it be.
BUT she kept stopping the whole class just to ask pronounciations so I did something like sighing or something, mumbling under my breath about how this was a waste of time and she just exploded.
She turned around, yelling,"I was absent and I don't know how to pronounce the words!" and I was like, "There's a pronounciation guide in the front of the music! Besides if you were absent it's YOUR responsibility to get caught up on your own! We shouldn't stop the whole choir just because you're too lazy to look at the front of the music!". Chargrined, she just kept mumbling under her breath about something or other while the rest of the choir went on.

I would have done the same thing. If I'm absent from choir, or too sick to sing, I work HARD to catch up at home. I download the song that we're learning, I learn my line on piano, I sing it out, work through it slowly, whatever I can. Even if I'm sick, I don;t go to the infirmary, I sit in class and watch, and listen.
I HATE people who are lazy and expect the choir to repeat itself, just because THEY weren't there.
What I even hate MORE are the ignorant girls in the back, who act like they're know-it-alls, but don't follow through.
Like, this one girl kept saying "well, maybe if they'd all COUNT, it'd be better!"
Well.. seriously. There's this one part in one of the songs we're doing where (me, being a drummer and therefore Nazi on perfect rhythm) I always have to start the WHOLE sopprano section, because they're too lazy to count. There's seriously two seconds where I sing alone because they can't fit it. And it's so easy too.
And then this girl, the one who was bitching about counting, had the nerve to say "uhm, and we need to start as a group. There's someone who starts before everyone, and it's really annoying."
I said "uhm, sweetheart, that someone is me, and I'm starting in the right place, unlike everyone else. Maybe you should... hmm... what did you say last class... ACTUALLY ATTEMPT TO COUNT?"
She got all pissy like "Don't you tell me how to sing, I'm in grade 12!" and the director was like "uhm... actually, she IS coming in exactly on time. Maybe you should follow her, instead of automatically assuming that just because you're at a 30 level, and she's at a 20, that you know better."
I was proud.

I was proud. Bahahahahaha! I know where you live now! I wish we had a choir in high school. Even one not for credit. But there wasn't even a choir when I moved out here to Alberta (just in time to start grade 12... evil ). My university choir has its share of idiotsticks though. There was one soprano who sat in front of my brother and I one semester (we always sang in mixed formation that semester) and she was constantly talking with/writing notes to/generally being annoying with the girl next to her, and the next girl down. One day she walked up to me after rehearsal and stood right in my face and told me it would be nice if my brother and I didn't talk through the entire rehearsal because it's really distracting and disrespectful. We had chuckled at one joke during the course of the rehearsal, that's it. I told her it was nice how she and her friends could do it, but we obviously weren't cool enough to be human. Gah. We've got a couple of other girls who are just ignorant and rude as well. Incidentally they all happen to be sopranos. Strange trend. We had one of the too-lazy-to-pay-attention-and-learn-his-part types in our tenor section for about three years, too. Very annoying. My worst stories come from band class back in high school though.... but we won't go there.

There's this boy. He's the only boy in our choir. I swear he fancies me, and it drives me up the wall.
He sings soprano, which gives him a reason to stand next to me. But that isn't the only thing he does. He insists on sharing my music with me. If I'm not looking at the music, he assumes I don't need it and snatches it off of me.
He also sings like he's in an opera all the time, and he never shut's up when we are supposed to. He sings right in my ear (a bit hard seeing as he is half my height) and even when I ask him to be quiet he doesn't.
The most recent thing he's done to annoy me was last thursday. We were practicing in the hall for our concert next week. We decided the best way to organise ourselves was in two semicircles; one for altos and one for sopranos. Sopranos ended up at the back and we all moved around so we were in the right place. Now, as I said before, he isn't the tallest person on Earth. He decided that he couldn't see and pushed me out of the way so he could be in my place. I fell backwards and put all my weight on my right leg, which is really painful for me because of a long term problem I've had. I bit back a scream and then got in trouble with our choir master for putting up a fuss.
Those are only the worst things he's done. There are loads more. I can't wait until his voice breaks and he's made to move groups.
