I don’t really think it is all that creepy. Kind of weird, yeah, but it has potential to be funny, depending on where she was going with it. You never know since she failed in the first stages. Of course by creepy I think of quiet, stalker types or something, not different humor types. Now if she had gone through with it, and started stalking you for weeks on end as her sister, yeah, thats creepy. Trying to pull a one over on your class, that could be funny, and isn’t a bit creepy in my mind. ---

How did the ‘sister’ register for the level two class? Wouldn’t she have to had take the level one class? Or show she had expierence as well? ---

She stood up there all smug with all her public experience, after mocking those who were losing sleep over having to take the course. There was a slightly sadistic edge to the whole thing. Ya. Count me in for a vote for the creepy. Going that far for a power-trip is pretty creepy in my book. ---

It doesn’t sound like she had any malicious intention so I don’t think I would have been creeped out. She just sounds like a bit of a clueless person who just wanted to take the class again. If I had been in the class, I would probably have laughed at the weirdness of the situation. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/theres-quirky-and-then-theres-creepy/388929.md?page=1)
