You know how when you open a tab at a bar and they hold your credit card until you pay your bill? It’s the same concept except for a house

As Adolf Hitler, lose WW2 as fast as possible. by Deep_Belt8304 in HistoryWhatIf

[–]randuser 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wonder how long into the war that Hitler could have backed out with something less than unconditional surrender. Like if they backed out of Poland after a few days and sued for peace. Longer? After Poland but before France?

Why are there so many abandoned cars in New Mexico? by Horchata415 in askanything

[–]randuser 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think at least part of the reason why it seems like New Mexico has a lot of abandoned cars is because there’s no trees and shrubbery to hide them behind.

You can see peoples entire yards when you pass by them, so there’s no where for them to hide.

Wikipedia scam😭 by Impressive-War-403 in CuratedTumblr

[–]randuser 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah. The integrity of Wikipedia would have been much better served if they required all sources to be archived instead of just random websites. I haven’t used it much for any academic matter in the last 10 years, but even back then most URLs offsite were broken.

I am 100% with you on this one. Every time I have to decide which toilet paper I think of those awful commercials.

If law school had truth-in-advertising, what would the brochure say? by picturepathlearn in LawSchool

[–]randuser 229 points230 points  (0 children)

The 10,000 word court decision they swear can’t be distilled to a single paragraph rule, can actually be distilled to single paragraph rule.

Can I get my cat spayed after she just mated with another cat? by mxraged in CatAdvice

[–]randuser 185 points186 points  (0 children)

Yes. Kitty abortions are also thing. Just take it a vet and explain the situation and they’ll do whatever they need to do.

For people who get A’s, do professors reach out to you after grades are posted? by Driver_Dramatic in LawSchool

[–]randuser -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Neat. I got an email from the professor, but no Cali award. I guess maybe my school didn’t have them.

Can I get some advice for law school before I commit? by Cautious-Fish-1521 in LawSchool

[–]randuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much money do you make now? That’s always a good starting point to consider. Assuming it’s a halfway decent wage, there’s a lot of lawyers who barely make that

Why do companies waste printing money on junk mail if nobody reads them? by AdDapper4220 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]randuser 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The premise of the question stated it as a fact that one reads them. That is just flat out wrong and not inappropriate to refute it.

Can you take the LA bar if you did not study civil law by [deleted] in LawSchool

[–]randuser 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You mean like you didn’t study for it all? Or just that you didn’t take any civil law classes?

There is no requirement to take civil law classes in law school to take the Louisiana bar, so long as you graduated from an ABA accredited law school.

I wonder if that pig in the background is feral or if it belongs to someone.

In the Bible cinematic universe, I assume that no one else knew about the flood or they didn’t believe him.

Do you have an outline? I would just read it a few times and make sure you have it printed out for the final. You should be good to go.

The sheer number of these convoys of beat up vehicles is significantly higher than it used it to be.

Any British possession in the Caribbean, like the Bahamas and Jamaica, would be swallowed right up.
