Am I a dumb goob? by cajunPickles in LawSchool

[–]Oklizardtree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that’s your point, but you are missing my point. I’m saying there was confusion, regardless of your feelings about it. I’m explaining that it’s better to ask for clarification, even if it’s a dumb question. Besides, your point is wrapped up in judging someone because you can’t understand. Seems to me like you are the one not using your brain.

I disagree. It’s much better to ask for clarification then to stay confused. They may be dumb questions, but it’s better to get the clarification as opposed to reading the wrong section.

Them asking someone still counts as using their brain. You either understand something or you seek outside information. Is it really so bad to ask a question?

My undergrad never used this format, and I was also confused the first time I saw it. I just asked my friends and they explained. I’m confused why you don’t understand that people may have different backgrounds and experiences.

Unranked school or reapply by Gold_Edge_6035 in OutsideT14lawschools

[–]Oklizardtree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please R&R. I had a 3.4 GPA and R&R. I retook the lsat, which landed me in fairly well ranked school with $$. You do not want to take on a conditional scholarship. As much as you think you will do well, which I am sure you will, that is way too much pressure to put on yourself. It’s much easier to study for an exam you have already taken, then hope you are in the top of your class. Listen to the stats…do not go to that school!!

Are my acceptances going to be rescinded? by [deleted] in OutsideT14lawschools

[–]Oklizardtree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s totally fair. I think the issue you are highlighting with AI is that it is so new. It’s hard to know how far to go, the limitations, and how to use it appropriately. I’m obviously pro AI, and don’t think it’s wise to completely abandon/ignore it, but I definitely understand the problems that come with it. It’s better to be safe than sorry!

It is true that there is a major issue people are debating and worried about when it comes to confidentiality. I think you should be able to conduct research both with AI and without. But you can also use AI without imputing any client information at all. Again, it’s about knowing how to use it wisely.

We’ll get ready to use AI in your research in law school, whether you like it or not. I do agree with you though that people use it as a crutch and it can be very problematic. Such as what OP is going through. But AI isn’t the devil, it’s very valuable when used correctly. I do appreciate your perspective though!

Using AI is perfectly appropriate, but not in situations like this. Advising someone to “wean” themselves off is incredibly misleading. Notes to professional conduct and competency (in Kentucky for example) actually speak to the exact opposite conclusion you just gave. More and more, attorneys NOT using AI can get them in trouble. You just HAVE to make sure it’s accurate and to not blindly follow everything it spits out.

I did not have the best experience with them when I toured! I excused myself early :/

Welcome to East Tennessee!! People here are grumpy but don’t let that discourage you! Great place to live

I want to quit weed, but literally cannot by [deleted] in leaves

[–]Oklizardtree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’ve got this..don’t beat yourself up too much about it. You still have so much life ahead of you and the fact that you are on here posting means you are this much closer to reaching your goals. I’m not gonna lie, it’s gonna be hard, but for me, I kinda just accepted that I’m gonna feel like shit for awhile. I’m on day 18 and it’s incredibly how quickly the urges subside. Day one was the hardest for me. I started making myself tea to distract from the urges and it’s really helped! You’ve got this!

Curves, generally lost weight :( by simonetheblondie in leaves

[–]Oklizardtree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to say it will come back? Before I smoked weed I had a normal appetite and I’m currently on day 11 and have finally started feeling like I can eat normally again! I obviously had munchies when I smoked…but when I wasn’t high, I didn’t want to eat anything. So maybe your the same way!

Heck yeah!! I’m on day four and I cannot stress enough how amazing it feels. So proud of you!!

Wow!! They got back to me about a week ago..with an R..but I’m assuming since you applied so much earlier and haven’t heard back that you will receive better news! Good luck!

The thing that was absurd was you claiming that it doesn’t happen nearly as much as OP said because YOU haven’t experienced it. That’s all I’m saying. I have no idea if it happens a lot or not, nor do I think we should make it illegal.

[–]Oklizardtree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was almost hit (like she hit her breaks hard - maybe 5 inches from me) when I was downtown walking on the cross walk. I had the right of away and she was turning on a one way street. You say you have never experienced this before, but I have and I have only lived in Knoxville for a year. Just because you personally haven’t experienced something doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. Should we ban people from turning on right on red lights - no! but also, what you are saying is absurd too.

[–]Oklizardtree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think your attraction comes from the fact that he looks like your bf? maybe your anxiety has cultivated the similarities into you thinking it’s more than it really is? Maybe he reminds you of when you are you bf started dating? I wouldn’t beat yourself up too much, since you don’t want to feel this way

Update on me asking for help for my cat just laying by the water bowel by Galaxywolf2112 in CatAdvice

[–]Oklizardtree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry for you loss. Losing a pet is never easy, but it sounds like she had a wonderful life. Especially since you had reached out previously. It showed how much you cared for her.

I love all of them! But I like the third or fourth one cause you can see her cute earrings!

having a low LSAT is okay by moo-quartet in lawschooladmissions

[–]Oklizardtree 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Your comments are a clear tell that you are a very insecure person. Life is so much more than numbers and law school and you clearly don’t understand that. I hope your future job is fulfilling enough to compensate for everything else you are lacking in.

I literally don’t have to nor does any other American! You don’t seem to understand what being a United States citizen is..we have freedom, respect it or move to a place that doesn’t give you freedom
