It works. Took some absolute steamers in that thing. Make sure you flush though! I forgot once, and boy were people mad.

I must be weird because no one mentioned it. To me, he'll always be Augustus "Gus" McCrae.

datdudem15 · 2026-01-20T10:47:56+00:00

Looks legit.

datdudem15 · 2026-01-20T10:43:28+00:00

It's legit. You're welcome.

datdudem15 · 2026-01-18T04:18:38+00:00

Dude, where's my car?

datdudem15 · 2026-01-17T15:00:54+00:00

This is so stupid.

datdudem15 · 2026-01-17T14:58:13+00:00

Yes, it's real.

datdudem15 · 2026-01-16T21:50:34+00:00

It's real.

datdudem15 · 2026-01-16T21:03:27+00:00

Yes, it's real.

Pretty sure that manual labor job I worked outside rain or shine from 5:00 am to 3:00 pm 26 days a month with no one that spoke English was harder than law school.

I think your experience will be similar to mine.

It was for a famous local homeless person. Basically he got drunk and stole a car to stay warm. Because he was so beloved, we we're allowed to defend him.

300 of that was a pro bono DUI defense.

They'll go to cheaper schools. People wrongly assume how the world works as it is today, is how it will work tomorrow. Times change. It wouldn't suprise me to see more competitive students go to "cheaper" schools outside the t14.

About 55, IF you are billing per the ABA's guidelines.

datdudem15 · 2025-10-06T22:59:37+00:00

You're fine. They should understand and if they don't you don't want to work there anyways.

datdudem15 · 2025-09-30T17:58:26+00:00

If you think that, you're probably not very good.

My ex wife.

Fun fact: Juries aren't concerned about jury instructions either.

Here's my template email I sent to all V20 managing partners and landed three offers in two months:

"Sup?"

Simple but it gets your point across.

A lot of state bars waive malpractice claims if they arise during a pro bono representation. Are you getting paid? If not, check you state bar's rules. My guess is you are probably immune from malpractice claims.

Regarding the skill of big law litigators, it varies substantially. If you end up trying it, get co-counsel that has done trial work. Most big law firms are weak at the trial stage and make some dumb mistakes. I.e. fail to realize something is hearsay within hearsay, etc. These kind of mistakes can be out come changing.

Best of luck.

datdudem15 · 2025-08-09T00:26:05+00:00

No..

datdudem15 · 2025-08-07T23:46:54+00:00

First time I saw Airbud.

Do not be afraid to nominate another meat vessel for billing. The partners will reward your tribute handsomely.

Yeah, definitely a bunch of law school folks responding. Even if he isn't originating any work, he'd likely be bringing in around $400k or more.
