I get it. You're trying to distract me with your crazy hypos. The sensational details and young ages of rape victims are meant to sucker me into finding the defendant guilty when he clearly should get off because of tainted evidence. That the unfairly silenced orator happens to be a KKK Nazi Abortion Clinic Bomber from a Pac-10 school is supposed to distract me from the fact that he, too, has constitutional rights. And the three-page-long story where I'm a pornshop proprietor who tries to form a verbal contract for the purchase of property on which someone is going to slip and fall while committing a burglarly that will get them put in front of an all-white jury without having been properly read their rights is supposed to spin me around so much that by the time I get to the actual question--what was the name of the pornshop proprietor?--I don't remember that it was me.
But the John Wayne Bobbitt hypo today? Really? Do you really think that someone like me, this close to the bar, is in a stable enough emotional state to handle severed penis stories before breakfast?
I hate you lots.
Hahahaha, those hypos sound so familiar!

Don't you ever study for the essays?
Posted by: divisadero | July 14, 2006 at 03:26 PM
Essays?! There are essays on the bar?!
I'm doomed.

Yeah, I got one yesterday with some guy having sex with his girlfriend, only to realize (while having sex with her, apparently) that she was dead. Eeeewwwww. I knew it was a red hearing, but, I couldn't help myself -- I chose it anyway.

For the record, Div, I do study for the essays. But I'll be damned if I'm going to write any PRACTICE essays. So when I get to the point that I can cram no more substance in my head and need to do just practice execution, I do MBE problems. Or push-ups.

All of my friends in law school are bellyaching about the bar these days. Is it really that bad? I mean, it is just another test. You people have taken tons of tests by now. It is not like you have to get a root cannal.

Yes, the bar IS that bad. I think we would all rather have some dental procedure ... it would certainly be shorter and less painful.

I would rather be raped by a gang of Brazilian meth addicts. Its that bad.

That would be kinda hot.

i;m curious how many hrs a day people study now????

the truly depressing thing is that by passing the bar the big payoff is that...you're a lawyer.
and an alcoholic.

I'm not trying to be an asshole, but I really don't understand the apparent hell that is the bar exam. I mean, look, for instance, at UT's passage rates, which are consistently around the 90% mark. Now look at your classmates. More than 10% are total dumbasses. The bar just can't be THAT bad.

Have you done the one about the Postal Clause yet? I can guarantee that you'll need to know that one to be an effective lawyer.

I've calculated a formula for how many hours to study each day based on my gender and undergraduate GPA...now if only i can hold off on sleeping for the next 2 weeks...

You're not an asshole for not knowing about the bar exam. You're a fuckwad for displaying your ignorance though.

Sorry, I left the above comment. That was uncalled for.
I'll make a great lawyer, eh?
:-(
Posted by: | July 17, 2006 at 11:02 AM
no, you'll make a great fucktard because only a fucktard would apologize for a comment.

What is it with Ian and meth rape? It's like all that guy ever talks about.
Posted by: divisadero | July 17, 2006 at 02:46 PM
If you look at the actual innocence project's website, a lot of the people they get off death row are men accused of raping and killing little girls. With a crime like that, once you find someone to accuse, it's not hard to convict even if the witnesses are blind, evidence tainted and defendant has no previous record.
