a giant pile of applications in a box labeled "deny"?

Those were printouts from tinder. Rejected applications are burnt as an offering to USN&WR in hopes of a good harvest.

Chalupa, I really hope you get in.

Thanks! I'm really hoping Faye notices that at least one out of every four jokes I make on this thread is well received.

Aww shucks guys. I'm just a humble servant of jon taffer trying to do his work on earth.

I hope we all get to kick it in Paolo Alto in the fall. And by kick it i mean study a lot probably.

It would at least be nice to study under some palm trees. Sigh.

FAKE palm trees.

FAKE palm trees.

meaning they're plastic? or is this some kind of American Palm Tree Breeders Association rule?

Palo Alto is actually too cold for palm trees.

They are there but the require a lot of maintenance.

Palo Alto, be advised: scoobers (that's right -THE scoobers) is having none of your perfidious tropical environment.

Eta: Apparently I have no idea how to spell palo alto even when it's in front of me. I'm definitely getting dinged.

So it's a APTBA issue.

new theory: the admissions team have been busy knitting sweaters for all the palm trees in Palo Alto, that's why it's been taking so long for us to hear back.

I still hold that it's because they're creating a special TLS Fellows of 2017 and it's taking a while to figure out all the logistics.

Being a fellow requires high proficiency in .gifs, baseless speculation, and proper forum etiquette.

There are no real benefits.

ETA: benefits; Oxford comma.

Ahhhhhhh must get to 100 posts and start posting reaction gifs.

One does not merely gifpoast their way into a TLS fellowship. It takes months of carefully cultivated posting and a thoughtfully-crafted narrative, but someday, you too can be TLSfamous.

I don't know if I have the neurotic credentials for a tls fellowship, but the process of waiting for a decision from Stanford is giving me hope.

You definitely are a TLS fellow if your S status checker doesn't have a period at the end of your current status.

Cue massive uptick in traffic to http://www.law.stanford.edu/degrees/jd/ ... atus-check.

To paraphrase Lady Gaga, "I was always famous. It's just that nobody knew."
