Actually I remember this phenomenon from when I went to school (a long time ago) where the kid next to you sits and stares out the window while the teacher lectures and then gives out the assignment. The kid then frantically begs everyone around to know what we're supposed to be doing when he suddenly realizes everyone else is busy with the lesson except him and he's clueless. Nothing ever changes.
This phenomenon hasn't peaked yet (and is probably just starting), so expect more newbie questions in the future.
