I'm not, even a little. I hate parties. I'd much rather a small group of intelligent people discussing issues over some really good food. I've liked that type of thing since I was old enough to have actual conversations.

Nope. I've found it's a pretty good gauge. If people are concerned about crap on Facebook and Twitter, I can safely ignore them. It really hasn't let me down since the advent of Facebook. I find my life filled with far less drama, I don't care what other people are doing. If you feel the need to share your slightest…
It may be anecdotal, but when it's said to every 1L class in the country, it probably moves from being anecdotal to axiomatic.
I find exactly zero utility in FB and Twitter. Now, I happen to like G+ because of the way it's set up. I can follow certain people without having them accept me as a friend, but it's not limited to 140 characters. Also, I find people on G+ are less concerned with the number of followers they acquire, and they're…
The literal first day of law school the Dean stood in front of the class and said, "if you have a Facebook profile, I highly suggest you delete it. If not, at least make sure you post absolutely nothing on there that's even remotely controversial." The problem with FB and attorneys (at least in NY) is you have to…
I have some basic info about me, I make sure that I have a custom picture for my banner (it's just a picture I took while in Boston of the skyline, looks professional, but not like everyone else's) and that's it. I really don't post much on there, other than a share of something I think is important. But it does have…
I stopped using Facebook years ago, when I hit the age that "friends" (people I haven't spoken to in over a decade) started posting pictures of their kids. I don't like kids, and I really don't like *your* kids.
Unless the app has a server side counter, a simple Hex editor and one could have all the free pizza he or she wants. I'm sure this will be hacked so quickly. I'm always amazed at the ingenuity of developers.
Well, if you were in the Army and you weren't pulling 50+ hour weeks, you surly mustered out. My best friend, while in the Marines, pulled 80 hour weeks regularly. I'm actually uncertain how someone in the military could work less than 50 hours, unless your nickname is Gomer Pyle.
Yeah, because as we all know, around the holidays everyone is working like gangbusters and no one takes vacation, because we live in a slave state. Unlike you apparently, I work a job in which I have plenary access to a computer. I can even have one webpage open (this one) while having several other pages and a word…
Speaking of ad homenim, you need the definition? Happy to oblige:
You're pissed because my deductions of a) - e) were spot on. I concluded you fell into one or a mix of the categories. I was right. Don't be mad at me, be mad at logic.
Never mind that you first started an ad homenim attack against me, we'll just ignore that. We'll also ignore the fact that you ended with one (what you pointed out about me being "insulting" was deductive reasoning, your issue is with facts and logic, not with the content of my speech).
See, for me it's not just about dedicating the time (of which I have virtually none), it's also a few other factors:
I'm whining and being condescending because I don't like playing $60 for a game, of which the only part that is even remotely enjoyable is the campaign, yeah, fuck me, right? I guess I should be happy to pay $60 and only get like $30-$40 worth out of the game. I don't know about you, but I grew up in an era without…
No it's not a joke. Yes, screw those people. Pay extra. I pay $60 for a game, I want to be able to play ever aspect of the game by myself. Anyone who wants to play beyond a solo experience, PAY MORE. Jesus, did Nintendo have multiplayer? It seemed to do fine.
There's no condescension, only reality. It is reality that as a professionally employed adult who works 55+ hours a week, married to someone who works 70+ hours per week, with a house and real world responsibilities, there is absolutely no possible way to play an MMO enough to not piss me off. There are not enough…
I feel the exact same way. As a professionally employed adult with actual, real world responsibilities, I do not have the time, nor desire, to dedicate to an MMO. I enjoy sitting down and playing a game for a couple hours and that's it. I don't want to get shit stomped by a 12 year old that racks up 50 hours or more…
I call total bullshit. The only way I'm productive is to ease into my mornings by following up with email and reading some news stories. Diving head first into work right after coming into work is a recipe for burn out by 2 pm.
Ad hominem: responding to arguments by attacking a person's character, rather than to the content of their arguments. Here's your quote "if you're an attorney, you need to go back to law school." That's attacking my character as opposed to my argument. Here's an ad hominem attack for you, learn to use a dictionary…
