Can you explain how you got that? There's no way in hell it's .25% chance. My (currently drunk) logic is 29 people total - 1 cause OP is part of the 29, so 28 * 27 = 756 possible combos in OP's group divided by number of groups (9.66 {group of 2 = .66}) so 78(I think?) of the 756 possible combos include the retard in his group, so 78 / 756 = about .10317 so there's a 10.317% chance. The number of possible combos in OP's group / by number of groups didn't come out as a whole number but should have. It probably has something to do with the - 1 to account for OP being part of the class? IDK. Damn, this has told me that it's been too long since I've taken a math/logic class, plus I learned how to do probability but it never clicked or stuck with me so other than the 28 * 27 part I came up with all this logic in my head. I probably messed up somewhere so someone please point out my errors and the correct logic I should have used. Edit: just realized this is assuming OP is NOT in the group of 2.

The odds of me and wierdo being together IN the group of 2.
