Do This Once and Do This Write

UPDATE: It's June 2013.  This offer still stands.  If I forget to update this in June 2014, this offer will continue to stand.  

It's May.  Therefore across the country, many newly minted JDs are beginning the ten-week legal workout commonly known as BarBri.  You probably already have your books.  They're huge.  There's so much information.  But guess what - most people learn it just fine.

BarBri is boring and long and takes lots of time.  You. Will. Be. Bored.  Trust me.  But we have a solution.

This blog was started by four JDs during a BarBri class.  We all passed the bar.  Most of us passed two.  We need your help.  We need you to help discover stuff to do during BarBri and blog about it.  If you're interested in contributing to this blog, either with an occasional post or regularly for the next few weeks, please let us know.  Shoot us an email: StuffToDoDuringBarBri@gmail.com.  Write a guest post, we'll publish it.  If you do two, we'll set you up with an account.  We won't pay you.  But writing for this blog is the best stuff to do during BarBri.

Give it a try, and share it with your friends.

Happy Cholidays

You mother fucker.  Are you crying?





Chappy Cholidays.

WWHD?

I hope your post-bar life is going well and that you've had at least 2 and no more than 6 sober days since the bar exam.

My friend Doodie posted the following status this evening: "Courier New is a terrible font."  My guess is that he's writing an appellate brief (probably pro se) to some court with antiquated rules to acquire a writ of habeas corpus some hopeless result.

Of course, I replied, "Not as bad as 'Hitler New.'"  Then, because he was away from his computer and didn't respond to my stupid joke, I amended, "er, I mean Comic Sans."

But you know what?  It got me thinking.  If Hitler could use a font - which would it be?  Tell me in the comments.

I'm asking you: 

WWHD?

What Would Hitler Do?

Best Week of the Year

Oh, wow...it's Monday night the last week in July! It's time for the bar exam. And then it's time for exhausted binge drinking, the likes of which you've never experienced.

You've got one day more.

IT'S BAR EXAM WEEK!!!  YAYAYAYAY!!!

Sorry we didn't entertain you the way we entertained ourselves.  But, for words of inspiration, see our posts from our bar exam last year:

KICK ASS

BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID

(and it's the best week because by the end of it you'll be done taking the bar exam for the first time)

Find Love...The Old Fashioned Way

Right about now you're starting to panic, huh?  The stress is creeping in.  You've covered all the MBE topics and can't remember the difference between assault the crime and battery the tort.  (Which reminds me . . . Q: What did the chef do when he was angry? A: He beat the eggs and whipped the cream. Q: What made him angry? A: Dinner wasn't ready.)  And you can't seem to find any way to get rid of that stress.

You know what you need.  A little bit of lovin'.  But not from another bar studier.  That's just asking for frustration and trouble.  No, you need to find somebody new (or figure out another type of battery).

And where better to find someone new than dating sites.  We're going to start with a warm up, before you actually get hurt.  Watch this video and decide who the most datable person is.  If you like men, find someone like him, if you don't, pick the person most like you. 

Let us know who you picked in the comments.
