The legal profession isn’t worthy of
@DietCoke_Esq
but I’m thankful you wanted to be there! Thank you for making my entire year with your kindness to a total stranger. I can’t wait to pay it forward after I pass the bar and continue to fight for those that need it the most 💜
@LizCGil
I had a prof that would count you as absent if you weren’t prepared for a cold call…and used absences to deduct from the final grade. It was a nightmare to say the least. Not to mention he was just an awful person.
Can we stop with the avocado toast thing already?! We see we’re never going to own nice things because boomers fucked it all up so we treat ourselves. Why is it so hard to let people have a sliver of happiness?
I can safely say I am just ready to get this test over with. I have no more feelings to feel because I have felt them all in rapid fire succession multiple times 😆. My famous last words are fuck the bar ✌️
@rkschiz
The ONLY expensive thing that IS WORTH IT is magnetic onesies. Everything else…babies don’t care and they don’t know any different lol. Also-the Nose Frida. Not expensive but couldn’t have survived without it. Gross concept…amazing results ❤️
Way No. 1962484 how law school should change: students shouldn’t be made to feel guilty in 1L year about sharing resources/info/outlines/etc and to actually work on building peer relationships. At this point I share everything I have at all times-it should be a no brainer.
Thanks everyone for your input! I will be able to use it the second go-round for evidence next semester 🤣 jk hopefully. But seriously!!!! I appreciate all the commentary and WHOA I did not expect to have 163294517 notifs when I got out of that test. ❤️
The rising trend of braless women parading the streets is overwhelming.
Those with prominent nipples, carelessly wear tops with thin fabrics, and swagger about.
If you talk, they'll tell you it's their choice.
The annoying thing is the lack of differentiation.
@LissaJoStewart
I am taking it tomorrow. And plan on taking it again because…I haven’t even read the rules 🤪 If you know a secret to inventing time pls share.
Me 1L: *studies torts for over 100 hrs to prepare for final*
Me last semester: reading my outline once should be good to get the *anything but an F* I need to GTFO
Do people just forget the pain that is bar prep? Is it like birthing a human? Because I still haven’t forgotten that and I highly doubt I’ll forget this process :/
@TonyRobite
It’s not a gif but we’re making up rules today therefore: a gif to a licensed attorney may be interpreted by the courts to include a really accurate meme.
@mocena
Supplement to the hot take: it’s due to the patriarchy and women being property back in the day. And our laws can’t keep up with change because the ones that make the laws are still faithful members of the patriarchy. Ok rant(?) over
Friendly reminder: nah not friendly at all. There is no ebb and flow of HUMAN RIGHTS. This isn’t something that should be on a sushi conveyor belt for argument. Take it off…digest it…and unpack your misogynist patriarchal BS. But don’t put it back on. Nobody wants to eat shit.
I think one of the most valuable things I’ve learned in law school is my limit and just how important the word No is. Finally evolving after trying to do too much at once.
1. Cut my hair w/kitchen scissors because I believed I could make it even after not going to a stylist in 3 years
2. Tanned every other day at the exact same time because it gave me purpose (?!!!)
3. Ate cheesecake for dinner ~15X and limited myself to crying during that time
8: Mom what are you gonna be when you grow up?
Me: A lawyer. I will argue in front of a judge to help people.
8: WHAT!? Don’t you want to be something better? Like a police officer?!
I have a long rocky road ahead of me. But thanks kid for a great reminder of the system 🫠
Trying as hard as I possibly can to do my part in voting
@GregAbbott_TX
OUT and the polling locations near my house are down. Rest assured-I will drive all over this city to find one.
@sabaghaderi97
I’m 38 and almost a 3L. I have more life experience and in some ways that has made it easier to digest. Also in my experience, nobody really cares about your age! You all have one common goal and that is to survive 🤪
As the time gets closer to take the bar, I find myself getting increasingly enraged that I’m about to have to spend $2000 on bar prep when I just got done “spending” $180,000 on school. Gatekeeping MFs
I have an idea. What if we all get 24 hours of sleep and then continue with the dumpster fire that is the world rn. Maybe it would make it a bit better?!
Listening to the couple in front of me at kiddo’s baseball practice talk about where to go for dinner and um…what’s it like to be normal again?! Maybe I’ll find out after law school? IS THERE HOPE 😩?!
@incompleteocean
Oh but what’s the other side of that?! We don’t “let them” and they throw a bigger temper tantrum than a 3 yr old 😆 they suck at life from every angle.
0/10 do not recommend sitting in front of the mirror choosing to pick out grey hairs as a writers block procrastination strategy for a paper due at the beginning of the week. Professor if you see this, no you don’t. 🫣🙃
Why is being hospitalized for exhaustion just for the famous people?! I feel like new attorneys should be afforded the same kindness…for the last 4 years of their lives idk
I’ve had enuf with the transparency online I want people to be more opaque. I do not want to see through the glass anymore. I’m done. secrets need to make a comeback for the love of god
Idk who needs to hear this
@TxDOTSanAntonio
but driving literally ✨anywhere✨ here is an absolute nightmare and I’d like a word with the person who decided every highway needed to be under construction AT THE SAME TIME
Got all the 2022 ER trips crammed into the last week of 2022. The only thing that will make this better is still being allowed back to law school after grades come out on Wednesday ☠️
@ProfessorGriggs
As an older current student, I learn better in a comfortable atmosphere. If you’re comfortable, it shows and therefore the room feels more comfortable. So whatever you’re comfortable in! (I perform better this way also)
PSA: the entire state of Texas is under construction and I received instant karma today after complaining about San Antonio. The only 80mph zone on a trip I take regularly is now 65mph because……construction 💀
If you think that religion (and by that I mean patriarchal control) doesn’t impact women’s healthcare services on the most basic level, here it is: my gyno can’t take my tubes out as part of a regular, common procedure at a Catholic hospital, but can at a non-Catholic one.
I need to know the previous owner of my secured transactions book so I can pay this person in ridiculous amounts of gratitude/coffee/alcohol for leaving sticky notes with answers to literally every single question 💕 This should be a thing like library books!
@LizCGil
I wouldn’t relive 1L if my life depended on it. And I have a son. It absolutely should not be this way. And then there’s this questioning yourself phase where you’re like “am I really being a little btch rn?!” So that’s also traumatizing.
