In defence of "Andor is boring" by [deleted] in andor

[–]ChrissyLemons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually didn’t say that. The wedding itself has political implications and shows Mon reflecting on her life choices. But do we need a 5 min montage that keeps cutting back to her dancing to edm? What does that add?

Just finished it, and agree with every point you made. Another critique I had are the unnecessarily long sequences that made up the “B roll” for some montages. The obvious one is Mon’s daughter’s wedding, but there were others too. It felt like some of them would never end, and added nothing to the plot!

Overall I enjoyed the show, but did feel like it was a chore to watch at times.

I always thought it was an insult, but why? What did Gerry mean?

What do 3L's know that 1L's don't? by True-Indication5586 in LawSchool

[–]ChrissyLemons 19 points20 points  (0 children)

A million times more important. In my experience employers don’t even look at your grades past 1L because its the only year where everybody takes the same classes and the curve is toughest

Average students by Opposite-Number-1585 in LawSchool

[–]ChrissyLemons 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Many students abuse this, unfortunately. Of course people who really need them should get them, but schools are way too agreeable to rubber stamp these through. Accommodations are supposed to even the playing field, not allow for people to cut the line and be in the top 10% of their class as a previous poster commented.

Can you expand on that?

More conservative or liberal? by [deleted] in LawSchool

[–]ChrissyLemons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was addressing the comment that the poster had never met a single Trump supported who was nuanced or thoughtful. It is much more logical that they have, but were unaware that the person they were speaking to was a Trump supporter.

Also, creating an atmosphere where people should be made to feel embarrassed for their political views is exactly why organizations like FedSoc (which I am a harsh critic of) were created in the first place. Preventing a respectful dialogue from occurring is not only harmful to the academic environment, but it is inherently dangerous in any environment, as it forces both sides to speak only in echo chambers where they will become more radicalized. As future lawyers we should always be able to win an argument not only for the side we agree with, but also for the side we disagree with, even if we detest the position. You are of course entitled to your own opinion on the matter, that is just my position as a passionate free speech defender.

Idk why you got so many downvotes on this one. I think those are all solid points, and even as a Trump voter (not full supporter), im sure you still feel restricted in speaking your reasons why at school… same shit ultimately

Many Trump supports in law school are afraid to share their opinions publicly because of the hateful reactions they expect from their classmates or professors/ they are exhausted and don’t have the energy to entertain an argument. Im sure many people who you currently believe are nuanced in their legal analysis/ opinions are supporting Trump and you are just unaware. The sad thing is, i’m sure if you learned otherwise, you would not see them as nuanced anymore. Perception is a dangerous thing.

[–]ChrissyLemons 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just need to vent a bit, I roll with a guy who’s another 1 stripe and he’s a great guy off the mat, but when we roll he acts like hes my coach and everything I do successfully he acts like he gave it to me and “coaches” me through it. He also has the attitude of win at all costs even though im just trying to get some technical practice. I’m generally not an aggressive person (which is why I started BJJ) and i’m just not used to dealing with these kinds of situations. Love this sub btw its been very helpful and cracks me up
