I have become an angry, bitter person

[recursivelyenumerable]

I'm pretty happy, although bit worried about whether I'll get paid before I run out of money, which would kinda ruin the new job thing seeing as I wouldn't be able to afford bus fare, or food for that matter

[Barry Egan]

Going to see my fourth in two weeks, let's hope this one won't waste my time with basic Islamic values

This is too bad.  Any good shrink should be at least two parts nihilist.  You should come to New York and see a good Park Avenue analyst.  If Wrath can come to America for Sunny-D you can surely come for some premium head-care. 

[bagofeyes]

What's the deal with Americans and shrinks?

I'll be your friend.

but i just got an A- in my first summer course. 

Is this a class outside of law school?

nope, lawl school class

Thanks for the love, R-dizzle.

Hey!  I come in and out on these forum things - so I don't blame you.  Just a regular dude.

I was just asking because my school doesn't offer summer law classes.

[Flannel Boy]

To pile on, I think I'm stir-crazy or experiencing cabin-fever. I'm very restless and insatiable.

Discuss while I punch myself in the face repeatedly.

I might go down and volunteer for the relief Gulf oil spill.  With your lawyer skills and my ability to talk to the common man, we can plunder the south and take all the oil for ourselves!!  Like a fox

[Flannel Boy]

Going outside? No sale (somewhat in a bind here--I hate staying inside locked away alone in my apartment, but I can't seem to leave it).

Going to the South? No sale.

Do you have cash to spare?  Get a bike and bike-GPS.  Funnest shit in the world.    You haven't experienced life until you geocached your way to a used condom.

Go to the library and hid in a study cubical.  It's a change in environment and yet you don't have to see people.

[Flannel Boy]

The sad thing is that I used to do this all the time.

It's sounds fun, but today I was attacked by a swarm of insects the size of hummingbirds. Even nature doesn't want me going outside.

[Propagandhim]

That's God's way of saying "let's party...!! noogies!!  Oh shit dude, Tyler told me you were cool with that shit..my bad dude..my bad.."   

In other word, bug spray, homey.


But really - you can go far on a bike.  You can see a lot of cool stuff and get exercise.  Just do it!  If you hate it, sell the equipment.  I bet you'll hang onto it, though.

[Madrun Badrun]

I still do it.  The two seconds it takes for people to walk past the cubical, glance at me, face semi-fallen when they realize the cubical is already taken, and me to look back at this person - both of us understanding that I had won; that today was my victory - is enough human contact for me.

[Flannel Boy]

Arvie and Malek continue to battle for the title of Evilbore's Biggest Social distinguished mentally-challenged fellow.

I'll think about it; however, I really can't see myself bicycling across Manitoba.

[Propagandhim]

"Say, do you like pen-and-paper roguelikes?"

"What?"

"Bitch, are you distinguished mentally-challenged?  Roguelikes.  This is the last time I talk to another human being."

That's none of you guys, i just wanted to make a Patton Oswalt-esque dialogue.

Propagandhi live in Winnipeg Manitoba.  I'd bike like a motherfucker over there.

Have either of you Canadian depressives considered reinventing yourselves as bleakly romantic singer-songwriters a la Leonard Cohen?

[Flannel Boy]

I don't have a deep enough voice.

[Flannel Boy]

Just give me a warning before hand so I know which building to avoid.

[Flannel Boy]

I'm not a virgin though; I just haven't had sex in a very, very long time.

Regardless, I had no idea that the victims got the 72 virgins, too.

[Flannel Boy]

Virgins are overrated. And I lack the experience to help them learn much of anything. Even if I did know something about sex once, I'm sure that I've long since forget it.

[T-Short]

so you both wouldn't know what to do? sounds pretty bad yeah. like playing a tutorial mission in co-op

[recursivelyenumerable]

Leonard Cohen's voice didn't get that deep until later in his career

[recursivelyenumerable]

"Both"? There are 73 people involved. Experienced or not, put your heads together and for each problem you encounter I'm sure someone or other could work out a creative solution. The magic of crowdsourcing.

[recursivelyenumerable]

Thinking about it a bit more I'm imagining something like the group research scenes in Buffy, only with an orgy going on at the same time. Everything would take place in a big room with half the space, and about half the people at any given time, devoted to the orgy itself, while the other half of the people would (1) observe the proceedings, (2) research process improvement ideas (that half of the room would be set up as a library) and (3) shout out any resulting good suggestions.

[recursivelyenumerable]

I guess it might work better if the room were circular with the action in the center and the research library section around the rim and at a higher elevation.

[Flannel Boy]

Only you could ruin an orgy like that.

[Madrun Badrun]

Well my Latin prof said I had a singing voice and a hair dresser once said, after me telling her that I was getting a philosophy degree, that I should become a song writer.

yeah, my school offered a pretty decent amount of courses this summer and they keep adding a few here and there.  Like random 3 day long all day 2 credit seminar classes in the beginning of August...Not sure if this is the reason, but I think a lot of people got their asses kicked in 1L (I definitely did) and they're offering chances to make up for it to retain more students, since they have a high attrition rate.

[Flannel Boy]

That sounds like a good idea. Glad you're doing well in your summer classes.

I have one year left, the knowledge of which is partly responsible for my terrible depression and anxiety of late. I will be trapped in a profession I want no part of, and there's nothing I can do. /emo-whitewhine

I'm going to try and get a prescription for an anti-depressant tomorrow to prevent myself from manabyting the dust. I'm also going car shopping, and maybe that will help, too: Why would a guy who just bought a car kill himself? Exactly! (Can you believe I took three different logic classes in college). 

[Madrun Badrun]

Three logic classes?  Me too!  Proof that I'm just as logical as Malek.

[Barry Egan]

Sounds like you should have taken a fourth 

[Madrun Badrun]

I am come term 2.  Then I will be more logical than Malek!

[Barry Egan]

The closest thing I took to a "logic" course in university was on the death of reason

[Madrun Badrun]

I was going to make a joke about you not seeing my 'joke' in following Malek's use of dislogic, and that you should have taken a joke class in you uni, but wait, you went to a continental philosophy school so all your classes were joke classes, but your post above is an even worse burn.

[Don Flamenco]

That sounds like a good idea. Glad you're doing well in your summer classes.

yeah, I want no part of it either...which is why I'm gonna get a job somewhere unrelated and start grad school pretty soon after law school's over.  Of all things, I might do something in sociology of law, which focuses on the societal effects of case holdings. 

and yeah, don't kill yourself

hey, fuck being a lawyer!  Join the RCMP!

(We have two former lawyers in my unit  )

But seriously, sorry to hear that you're going through all this even though you're still not really interested in the profession.  What area of law are you looking to practice upon graduation?

[Flannel Boy]

Corporate law--at least that's what I keep saying (I don't want to specialize in an area that might actually help someone), but I really have no idea.

I've taken just one elective through my first two years, meaning that I get to pick all my classes next year. yay. I'm actually meeting with the new associate Dean on Wednesday. Hopefully, she won't expect me to attend classes. That would really ruin my days (I don't even know what I do with my free time).

[Flannel Boy]

Most of the female students have more testosterone than I.  :'(

Malek why are you going through school and getting a job in a field you don't want to be in?

spoiler (click to show/hide)

Because someone went into my dreams and planted that idea inside a dream, which was inside another dream, which was inside of yet another dream. I really should make this into a movie.
