Based on your recent posts, I'm not sure why you're still here.
I learn a ton about the application process in between reading the shit that you spew. Wait I'm practicing to be like you guys, let me know how my progress is going.
Uninformed absolutist remark indicative of a cowardly 22 year old...retake...ITE...ITE...anything below Columbia is like suicide...I'm a DBag....(waiting to be backed up by my butt buddies)...more shit I don't have a clue about.

why are you nicer IRL?
Because on the internet I like to be brutally honest. In social circles courtesy dictates lying.
I am not any nicer IRL. I am just as brutally honest, and maybe quite a bit more blunt and sarcastic in person. Actually I am sure I am more IRL because I actually get to see people's reactions. My honesty is wasted on the Internet.

But I'm getting discouraged. Not about job prospects, not about debt. I know I want to be a lawyer. I'm discouraged by what I read on TLS. Specifically, I'm discouraged to think that I will be spending three years with you douchebags.

I think you guys are probably nice, harmless people. But who the hell sits down and makes line graphs of the decision dates at a law school? Who the hell gets on the internet to plug a STRANGER'S numbers into law school predictor for them? SO many of the things said on this site land somewhere between pointless, idiotic, and redundant. Originality is the diamond in the rough.

I've been reading these forums for several months, and yes, they have helped me with the application process. But that's not the same as wanting to spend time with the people that created them.

My question is this: Are you guys really the anal retentive, petty, witless cretins that you sound like on this website? Are there a load of readers who never post that are actually solid people?

Discuss.
People in law school are chill.

Well, it may not have been if not for kwais spewing bullshit to confirm that he/she is a socially inept and overly sensitive waste of air. Don't worry, i'd tell you that IRL as well.

I like how OP basically just shits all over people that he acknowledges have provided him with information that has been helpful to him.

Also, this thread has been done.

On a semi serious note, being blunt and honest are generally good attributes. People who encourage others to beat around the bush, lie, and mislead for the sake of someones feelings are usually just doing them a disservice.

Be careful, using the "a" instead of "e" refers to something completely different. HTH

I'd laugh at you in person, but I am nicer online.

Nevertheless, I agree that intranets is weird.

Oh man. It's such a relief to finally have someone just cut the shit and see right through me. You're right! Oh, god, you're so right! I'm just so miserable and lonely and nobody likes me ever and I totally miss the loser lunch table at high school. Thank goodness you came along to point out my glaring problems. Thanks to you, I will finally leave my mother's basement and check out this real world you speak of!
you're welcome
wasnt OP kinda original in his flame post? he actually wasnt slamming TLS dbs or even elitists...he was slamming ppl for being anal retentive and making graphs to illustrate things and help ppl haha

Your continued homophobia on this site needs to stop. Hurl whatever insults you like but you cross a serious line when it turns sexist, racial, homophobic, etc.
