So, I'm at law school. Clown school was full, this is my second choice. Points of interest so far:
- We, the intake of 2006, are elite. According to the lecturers, we should all be proud and happy to be so goddamned intelligent. It's kind of like a cult, only with less smiling and none of the sexual weirdness. Worse luck.
- We won't do as well as we used to, as everyone else was just as intelligent as us. I sneered at this point, and thought something along the lines of "Ha! I'm way smarter than these goons!". I then realised everyone else was thinking exactly the same thing. Everyone was certainly sneering. We looked like Elvis101.
- I am expected to speak up in class. Finally, I get my chance for karmic revenge upon my previous students, who never said anything and would need me to run both sides of their discussions. The Buddha would be proud.
- My only contribution so far consisted of a brief exchange with the ethics lecturer.
Ethics: What do the public think of lawyers?
Me: They're amoral, money-grubbing hucksters.
Ethics: Why do people think that?
Me: Because lawyers are amoral, money-grubbing hucksters.
Ethics: So, why are you doing this course?
Me: Ah. I'm an amoral, money-grubbing huckster.
Again, it's likely the Buddha is feeling proud. Speaking of the big guy, apparently he once went into a pizzeria and asked them to make him one with everything. True story.
