REMINDER: ppl in the bottom half in ls don't post on TLS

Post by Julio_El_Chavo » Tue Feb 28, 2012 2:22 pm

There's a reason why you see posts like: "GEE WIZ, I BET 80% OF THE PEOPLE AT UVA GOT BIGLAW, LOLOLOLOL!" It's because people in the bottom half at schools like MVP don't really talk to other law students about anything, and especially not grades, jobs, etc. This includes talking to other law students on TLS. I just assume that people who have dropped off the map in law school have bottom-half grades because I never really see them or interact with them. This is understandable because why would they want to be around a bunch of cocky dickheads who talk about their clerkship hunts and the relative prestige of their firms? This mentality is actually amplified on TLS because of the anonymity of the Legal Employment forum, so you're not getting a full picture of employment prospects by listening to a bunch of people in the top half of the class congratulate themselves and speculate on their clerkship chances.

Yeah but sounds like your intended audience is yourself. This is the surest sign that you need more real-life friends.

I'm not seeing the problem here. People in the bottom half are depressed at their failure to achieve and avoid having that feeling of failure magnified by interacting with people in the top half. People in the top half get to begin their future life of hanging with other monied bros and chatting about the latest car they're going to buy (on credit). Both sides end up ahead by not interacting! </snark>

Maybe they don't want to interact with you. Ever think of that possibility? That sentence is probably the single-most pretentious/obnoxious post I've ever read on TLS.

REMINDER: this is a reason why people don't like law students
PSA: this is because people post like this
FYI: this is also how annoying law students talk

Seriously, there's some like weird aspie-law school syndrome mutation that needs to be studied more in depth. It's like they spot some possible explanation and announce to the world in the form of a PSA

Are you questioning that my ideas are the most original and best written thoughts ever conceived? Why would you deprive the world my incredible wisdom that I, in perfect form, communicate via declarative statements at times I believe the world will best benefit from hearing them?

You do know they're BOTH referring to you right? Just making sure. I can't tell what human emotions/interactions you're able to relate to.
