Maybe if you'd been AMBITIOUS enough to want to be He-Man, you would have landed among the comma jockeys.

No, you're still a douche for telling people that you turned down Skadden/DPW/STB/Cleary/MoFo for your NLJ250. How often are you going to tell your coworkers about your sacrifice?
Already summered. I'm a 3L.

I never mentioned it.

Poster was being facetious in that you'd actually tell your coworkers about your sacrifice. I don't see what this has to do with whether you've already summered there or not...and you just mentioned it now.

He doesn't mean the decision, I think, but rather you actually believing how telling everyone you scored multiple V10s somehow makes you an anti-douche.

ITT some douches are shocked that their behavior is douchey behavior. This helps confirm that:

I wanted a square-cut Tiffany diamond engagement ring, but that bastard showed up with a princess-cut Tiffany diamond engagement ring. I threw the box at him.

No way, Jose. The bevel around the edges of a princess-cut is WAY smaller than the bevel around the edges of a square-cut. See, e.g., this. Hence my steaming bitch-rage.

I assure you that you're wrong. There are several types of squared and rectangular cuts, but a square without truncated corners and with a brilliant cut pavilion is a princess cut, and is otherwise known as a square cut. The crown proportions don't change the shape classification.

ETA: the style tiffany calls a "square cut" is shorthand for a "square emerald cut," otherwise known as an asscher. It's not a square at all, due to the truncated corners.

Diamond owned. Still, screw that bastard for not giving me exactly what I wanted even though I had little to no idea what I was talking about.
