Yeah seriously bro. I've got a piping hot cup of pathetic right here w/ marshmallows.

I totally agree. Why even go after me when we have you around? You're like my first layer of defense against insults. I can always throw back an "at least I'm not kittonmittons."

I don't really understand that, "oh, you have a lot of posts. hahaha take that!" thing. It confuses me as to why that is an insult.

I think they assume that you are both vitamin-D deficient, gollum-like beasts staring at glowing computer screens in rooms with blackout curtains.

While that describes me pretty spot on, I will quote my personal hero: "I am not an elephant! I am not an animal! I am a human being! I am a man! "

Some people completely judge their self-worth on how accomplished they are in avoiding the Internet and/or interacting with people on the Internet.

I guess. what else to people do to waste time at work?

TLS is safer than sexual harassment

TLS is sexual harassment without any of the consequences.

If you think my typing speed is incredible, you should see my faxing/filing skills.

Sweet, I will need a good secretary when I am a lawyer.

No thanks. I know you just want me for my body.

What else are secretaries for?

Good point. When do I start?

Great, I started laughing at work. The jig is up; they know I'm only pretending to be busy!

Yes, I know I just joined today...I've been lingering (not creepily, I swear) on TLS and when I got my email today decided I'd finally join in and share the good news--they weren't joking, they are still admitting people! Can't wait to see you guys next fall!

Sorry, I haven't followed this thread. Can someone tell me what Columbia is doing? Why the acceptances two weeks ago and then just stagnancy? I'm confused and bitter.

Applied ED...forgot to mention that earlier, sorry!

[Lermontov]

I don't recall seeing anyone else with bad news yet, so I'll go first. They've begun sending out deferrals, bumping people from the ED to the RD cycle.

First class mail; postmarked yesterday, so I got the news pretty quick.

First class mail; I live perhaps a mile away from the school, so I got the news pretty quick.

oh boy. prepare for the unfun stuff.

Yeah. I'm telling myself that a deferral is perfect. It leaves me the option to go somewhere else if I get the $$$ while still having conveyed to them that Columbia is my number 1. At least it wasn't a waitlist or a deny.

Anyone know their policy on LOCIs for deferred ED people?

absolutely. i think a lot of people lately are feeling relieved to not be locked into something they potentially can't afford ITE

Send in as many as you want, I think they use them as rolling papers.

[GlobeTrotter]

In past years have people gotten in RD after being deferred?

Thanks. Even if it's not wholly true, I like to think this. I honestly don't care about the money...I'd really prefer just to get to go to Columbia.
