I hope he figures out that "semi-serious" is akin to "half-joking". The whole point of my initial post was that it should have been picked up on sooner or that someone should have given OP more shit. ...That's all I meant. Honest. I rllly lyke u guyz. :roll:
Oh. I thought you were more like this:

SO I thought this:

Which made me type this:

And I think Kalvano was going for:

Then in your last post, I think you were like:

I'm still not getting it. How does that convey prejudice or hostility toward jews?

Anyway, this flame takes me back. I remember seeing the LSD thread back before law school. Probably the same poster, too, 'cause shivenstein was recently active on LSD.

@ggocat:

The post conveys a likelihood of anti-semitism because although it is possible that the flame poster didn't have racist sentiment (that the flame was simply mocking the idea that this would really be a dilemma and that people on here would buy into this as a dilemma), the fact that the flame-bait included an actual picture and full name of someone who appears Jewish seems to indicate likely racist overtones. Why choose a full-name and picture that makes the individual come across as likely being a Jew as part of a mockery post if the post didn't involve anti-semitic sentiment? It just seems likely that the flamer would have used a more typical username without a real photo if there wasn't some kind of a jab involved with that choice.

On another note, this question could be a real dilemma (NYU full vs. Yale) and I'm sure is for a fair number of high achievers. Obviously it would make most of us green with envy but that doesn't mean it couldn't be a real dilemma for someone (though looking back after the fact the OP does reek of flame and I'm kind of surprised more people didn't call it before the link confirming it- the dilemma could be a real one, but someone smart enough to pull off those acceptances is unlikely to present the dilemma the way flame boy did).

Well that turned out to be a time-sink. Y'all shouldn't keep posting after you've already determined that it's a fl... ... :idea:
