I'm not 100% convinced that its not a lounger messing with the on topics, especially considering the self-name. Dat join date doe. Maybe they stumbled upon this guy, saw his LinkedIn, then sat on it for months and waited to unleash him upon us at a slow time? Ratfukr would be propelled to GOAT poster status if this is her cooking, IMO.

On an unrelated note, I like how people questioned my sociopath E-diagnosis, and yet there is a wiki-page devoted to this bro's online persona where he is labeled a sociopath.

Did anyone else catch the part of the article where it said only 1/3 of the students at GGU get above a 3.0? What is their median GPA, a 2.7? The only reason they would have for such ridiculous grade deflation, when most schools are inflating grades, is that 3.0 is the cutoff for scholarships. A lot of law schools have similar policies, but this ploy seems particularly egregious to me. They offer scholarships to the majority of the class knowing that over 2/3 will lose them right away?

Sociopaths are people too. You're probably (closely) related to one. Try to have some compassion.

Everything's a "ploy" or a "scam" perpetrated by "hucksters". If GGU had 2/3 above 3.0 it'd be a different scam. Does anyone else see the sour grape silliness here?

FAR more elaborate than Larry Birkhead.
