High times

Today, I had to give a joint presentation at college. My partner was so high, she couldn't even pronounce her own name properly in her introduction. I'm pretty sure her antics are going to get us both failed hard. FML

Well, they don't call it a joint presentation for nothing, I guess.

I will never understand how some people could just throw their partners grade under the bus like that

As long as you did your part well, most professors will grade you separately. I'm pretty sure you're teacher won't blame you for your partner's altered state of mind

Throw her under the bus, now. Don't tolerate stupidity from anyone!

Lol, a "joint" presentation. Get it? Anyone? No? Okay. I honestly thought it meant a presentation on marijuana at the beginning though

This is great practice for the real world. In the real world, your boss isn't going to care why you ****** up the presentation. In fact, ,any bosses is probably going to be pissed that you didn't narc out your stoner partner before the fact. So the real question is: Is it better to be a snitch or a failure.

Many bosses, even. They will probably, however, reward the initiative of stepping in and doing your best to sideline the stoned presenter. If you know the project instead of just mastering your area of responsibility, you're management material.

I'm a dedicated lifetime marijuana enthusiast. Or as some people disparagingly say, a pothead. And I will tell you firsthand that if someone is high enough to not be able to pronounce their own name, they are too high to hide being that stoned while milling around waiting for the classroom to empty or the prof to get there. If he smoked a blunt before class, that odor would linger. Weedibles wouldn't leave the odor, but that level of sloppiness and lack of articulation would almost certainly be noticable during the last minute prep for the presentation. There is the possibility that the presentation was late in the class and weedibles have been known to creep up on people. But based on the fact that the partner showed up blitzed to a joint presentation, I'm skeptical that that is the case.

maybe it wasn't weed and she's just a typical junkie about to drop out and fund her dope habits by suckling dick.

OPs opportunity to tell was after it happened lol. you wouldn't go ahead of time anyways..."hey, professor, my partner might show up high" no. it's "hey, professor, I believe my partner was under the influence and I really don't want them to affect my grade nor do I want to work with them again" LOL so what do you mean "they may not have had an opportunity to tell" I smoke lots of weed. but I'm not stupid enough to go and **** up my responsibilities because "I'm too blazed bruh"

You're right. You wouldn't say that. But you could say, 'Hey prof. Can I talk to you a sec? I just tried to go over our presentation with my partner one last time and I think she's high as ****. Is this going to impact my grade? Can we get a deferment until next class?"

Depending on the teacher, you might ask if you can work on different projects individually instead of a team project. The worst she can say is no. I once got split off of a team I was badly compatible with - partially because it was an ethics course and they were taking the project as an opportunity to preach about the evils of GMOs (though Monsanto is evil) - though I will be honest and say I failed my responsibility and I could have done better. I ended up producing a pretty good project by myself and I remember my teacher (whose idea was it that I be split) beaming at me when she evaluated my project and I got a fairly good grade for it. Judging by the embarrassed looks they had after they got back from their evaluation, I'm hoping they didn't fare too well.

I'd say talk to your professor. As long as you handled your part of the presentation well, they should only fail her ass.

Someone clearly doesn't have their shit together. **** her. Tell the professor why you deserve to be graded based on your performance, not hers.
