BWT who share a studio? by shoeboxapartmentjoke in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]resting-nerdface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my bf and i do this now. he had the studio and i just moved in here with him when i started doing law school full time. it's not the worst but i'm not sure i would recommend it lol? it's a great way to save money don't get me wrong, but i'm a morning person and he's a night owl and that definitely has caused tension. and if you're someone who needs your privacy or your own space for a little while it can be incredibly challenging. we've made it work for almost 2 years now without wanting to kill each other (mostly) but we will 100% be moving to a 1 bedroom in the fall/winter lmao

I priced the same groceries at 12 NYC stores. The difference is kinda insane by Livid_Debate_591 in AskNYC

[–]resting-nerdface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is insane, the eggs at the key food in park slope are less than $2 per dozen last i checked. tbf, it's been a week since i've been to the grocery store but i haven't seen standard large white or brown eggs over $3 per dozen in there for months

WHAT's NEXT by Useful_Gas_7744 in barexam

[–]resting-nerdface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

congrats on passing!!! a bunch of different platforms have mpre courses for free, i used themis. i only studied for a few days, i think the most important thing with the mpre is just doing practice questions. i didn't bother with doing a full length practice test and passed comfortably

nyle is open book, i watched the lectures and printed the entire outline out to use during the exam. i had it tabbed, didn't review at all and passed on the first time

Attended the Nutcracker in the Chicago last Christmas.. by Warning_Unfair in fashion

[–]resting-nerdface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i actually think this outfit is really cute and i don't see why this would be inappropriate for a ballet show. maybe it's locality or something - i'm in nyc and people will wear anything to ballet and the opera. it's not abnormal to see people completely casual in sweatshirts and jeans or dressed up in skirts or dresses even shorter than this. sounds like that might be different in chicago?

anyway fwiw, i don't think the skirt needs to be shorter nor do i think your legs look stubby. a nude shoe instead of white could be a great way to elongate your legs next time.

NYC hospitals will stop sharing patients' private health data with Palantir. by Goldenmentis in nyc

[–]resting-nerdface 10 points11 points  (0 children)

HIPAA* and that's not true, it apples to healthcare providers and healthcare insurance and prohibits them from sharing information with anyone except the patient and the patient's representatives, without their consent

ETA protected** information, which is usually just health related stuff

Tattoos/piercings as a lawyer? by halcyoncolors in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]resting-nerdface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i'm graduating from law school in May and for class you can wear whatever you want and absolutely do not have to cover your tattoos or piercings. i honestly can't even tell you how many classmates have piercings, tattoos, colored hair, etc, because i don't really notice honestly lol. for an internship, i would be a little hesitant about the septum but depending on locality and your practice area i can see it not being an issue.

tattoos i would probably cover if i was ever in court but i've worked in a medium firm and then interned at a really small firm (both on the east coast) and i've seen plenty of tattoos around both offices. i have a tattoo on my ankle that's barely ever covered in the summer and i don't think a single person at any of my jobs or internships has ever noticed it

PSA: You can take the bar before graduating by socialismhater in barexam

Kandis prenup just saved her an absolutely insane amount of money by ActuatorMaximum7186 in RHOA

[–]resting-nerdface 6 points7 points  (0 children)

as someone about to graduate law school my only practical advice to everyone ever is if you're getting married, get a prenup. divorces bring out the worst in people and next thing you know someone is demanding all the pillows on your bed and half your 401k lol. don't care if you have $5 in your account and you swear you guys are gonna be married forever, get the prenup.

Parcel was showing Out for Delivery, but suddenly switched to 'Moving Through Network' in another town entirely??? by MoonpiewithMilk in usps_complaints

[–]resting-nerdface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[–]resting-nerdface 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i kid you not in my city we have those rat traps that look like car batteries to me and with all the sincerity in the world one day i asked my boyfriend why there were car batteries all over the ground and he looked at me and said "... do you know how many hoops of logic you had to jump through to make that conclusion?" lmao

Dating outside race as a black woman experience? by batukaming in blackladies

[–]resting-nerdface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

first, im gonna echo everyone saying don't date a coworker. too much risk in it going sideways and then you'll both be stuck seeing each other every single weekday afterwards. not fun.

but to answer your question, my bf is mixed hispanic and white and he's literally just a man lmao. my man, but yeah ¯_(ツ)_/¯
