Yeah, it's not like you'll soon be meeting that person IRL or anything.

So, nobody can legitimately be interested in law until after passing the bar and working as a lawyer?
A lot of people ITT seem to be belaboring under the mistaken assumption that anybody cares?
+1 why does a title with douchy in it, attract so many douches?

including myself :lol:

I just got a link for my section's Facebook group. I think I'll pass or create another account. More likely pass on the invite.

well if your spending 50+ hours a week on something it isn't crazy to call it an interest. is it douchy? depends on the purpose behind the posting, therefore its reasonable to infer that if you put it on your facebook page OP yes it would be extremely douchy, if i or anyone else who thinks this topic is silly did it, than no not douchy.

Haven't you been reading this thread? If you had, you would know that you can't legitimately be interested in law until after you graduate and get some work experience, because law school doesn't teach job skills the same way that medical school does.

lol actually your right i didnt read much more than the first few posts, but i disagree. law isnt just a job, its a way of life. its why you wake up at 4 am and drive 100 miles to just to get a piece of those gnarly swells, its why whenever you eat peaches your face and hands end up covered in the sweet sweet juices.... you get the picture.

Meh. I'm not annoyed by law students who are interested in the law. To me, that's logical. The ones that annoy me are the law students who do nothing but complain about law school. What the fuck did you people expect we'd be learning about? Medicine?

Answer: If they are a douche and do it, then it is douchy. If they aren't a douche (or by extension a douche-nozzle) then no it isn't douchy. Q.E.D.

Over/under on the number of weeks before Mr. Mouse's nervous breakdown? I'd set it at nine and I'd take the under.

If a douche acts douchey alone in a vat of douche where no one can hear, does he still drink jagerbombs?
