Class of 2015!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Well since the last time I was on here was a while ago, I just felt the need to come back and check up on my favorite anonymous internet people.

Still.

I can't imagine someone with lots of things to do and "life" going on, wasting time trolling SDN people online.

Do your friends also spend time trolling on SDN?
 
Poll time!

1. What are your Thanksgiving day plans?
2. How do you prefer your turkey? (smoked, fried, roasted... brined?... white meat or dark?)
3. What's your usual menu like?
4. What's your favorite side dish?
5. What's your favorite dessert?
1. Might do a thanksgiving day run. Probably just gonna hang out with some other friends who are away from family and couldn't go home this time.
2. I've almost always had it done in ze oven... either kind of meat but gravy and southern style "dressin'" are a must.
3. Turkey, Ham, Dressin', Sweet potatoes, Green Beans, gravy, mashed potatoes, other stuff I'm forgettin
4. Dressin'
5. Prob'leh pecan pie.
 
Still.

I can't imagine someone with lots of things to do and "life" going on, wasting time trolling SDN people online.

Its no different from you guys talking about your favorite gummy bear flavor or your favorite cupcake to make as if you actually know each other. The difference is that im only on here once in a while.

1) parents are going out of town for dad's best friends wedding. i'm going to my best friend's (since 5th grade) house. its crazy. there are 6 kids in the family, most of them have SO's and its basically my second home. i'm pumped!
2)roasted. white meat.
3)turkey, garlic mash, sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole, cranberry dressing, stuffing 🙂love🙂, corn, occasionally a ham is on the table too, and dinner rolls. i think that covers it.
4)stuffing!!! mom puts spicy sausage in it. omg.
5)a plate with a piece of apple pie and pumpkin pie.

Seriously, I can't imagine a cool person wasting time trolling on SDN. You can say you only do it occasionally, but the activity in and of itself has "loser" written all over it.

Do all your bar buddies spend time trolling people on SDN? You must be a really popular bunch.

1. Going home. Yay!
2. Turducken - 😍 Louisiana
3. Turkey, three kinds of stuffing (gross), green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, cranberry sauce, apple and pecan pies.
4. Greenbean casserole for sure
5. Peacn pie!

That's a bold assumption you're making there. Him actually having friends...

1. Depends on when my husband gets home - but either way stay home and cook.
2. I bake mine in the oven - basting every half hour. Yes, it's totally worth it.
3. Kinda simple unless it's a big gathering. Turkey, stuffing, taters n gravy, green beans
4. taters n gravy
5. No-bake cherry cheesecake. yum!
 
Well there are too many SDN nerds on here, so someone is gotta balance it out. Try nature, I hear their looking for this kind of research actually.

Its no different from you guys talking about your favorite gummy bear flavor or your favorite cupcake to make as if you actually know each other. The difference is that im only on here once in a while.

Proofread you dummy. And it seems like you are on here more than once in a while. Try all morning. And over 2 posts a day for the past 140 days? Is SDN your homepage?

Yea we are mad popular, we call ourselves the three barsketeers. Believe it or not, there is actually some useful advice ive found on SDN, and if im in the mood, i contribute. if im not, well, you know that.

Its just as a bold of an assumption as you having a life.

This morning has been rather uneventful so far, need some way of killing time. And two posts a day for 140 days??? That must mean I spend 2389578934579 hours on those two posts! Maybe I should make it my homepage.

Being hated is my favorite way of killing time too!! OMG!!! Besties?
 
So let's talk about something else.

Who wants to fill me in on their med school application process so far? I've missed a lot since I just now joined this thread.
 
Poll time!

1. What are your Thanksgiving day plans?
2. How do you prefer your turkey? (smoked, fried, roasted... brined?... white meat or dark?)
3. What's your usual menu like?
4. What's your favorite side dish?
5. What's your favorite dessert?

I should answer my own poll!

1. We're going to dinner at my mom's. My uncles will be there, too, and my sister... I'm not sure if her boyfriend will be joining us, but that'd be nice.
2. We brine it and cook it her Alton Brown's Romancing the Bird instructions. We've done this for the last 3 years and we're all in agreement that it's the best turkey we've ever had. I like the dark meat best, but brining makes the turkey breast juicy and delicious!
3. Ours is very standard. Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, rolls, salad, and gravy. I think that's it. Pumpkin and apple pie, and ice cream for dessert.
4. Stuffing! Spicy sausage sounds awesome but our secret ingredient is mustard. It adds an extra little bite that is just AWESOME!
5. Apple pie! That is usually my job and I think this year I'm going to do a crumb topping instead of crust.

Once we have a house I'd like to host Turkey Day, but we can't fit that many people eating comfortably in our apartment. That way I wouldn't feel bad about inviting my in-laws. My mom and the hubster's parents get along nicely, but I can't just invite them to my mom's. I'm sure she'd say yes but I'd feel like I was putting her on the spot even if I hadn't mentioned it to the ILs yet. While dinner's at my mom's house, and she does most of the cooking, I go over the night before to brine the turkey, and I'm the one that carves it (which usually leads to me getting pissed at the old electric knife, grabbing the turkey legs rending them off with my bare hands, then someone making a crack that I shouldn't go into ortho). Like I said above, I also make the apple pie and I think this year I'm going to be charged with the mashed and sweet potatoes.
 
Yea we are mad popular, we call ourselves the three barsketeers. Believe it or not, there is actually some useful advice ive found on SDN, and if im in the mood, i contribute. if im not, well, you know that.

You must be the picture of popularity. What we know about you so far:


  • You stay up late on SDN trolling
  • You really love to go to out drinking
  • Your "first two years of college was a cGPA of 2.73"
  • You wanted to get into a top 4 (per the quote below) but now insult those who are there (jealousy?)
  • You're pretty used to feeling stupid per your quote.
I don't know if we've created the picture of popularity here. The SDN trolling is beginning to make sense.

im pretty used to feeling stupid, especially since I only got a 3.3 at my low ranked college.

Point is that I messed up my undergrad years, my first two years of college was a cGPA of 2.73.

Stupid question of the day. My ethnicity is Indian, and most of my people are smart. There are a few exceptions like me loll, and when they are reviewing my file, are they going to wonder "He's Indian, he should have 4.0 gpa and a 42S MCAT. Is he mentally challenged?" loll

Again, Its not like im hoping to get into those famous four or kill myself lol, I just wanted to see what it took to get into those top schools, ill frankly be estatic with any admission (USC, Drexel, McGill, etc….) at the end of the day, a doctor is a doctor, HMS or not loll. Oh and ive already looked into the DO option, and have schools ready to apply for that as well before anyone suggests that loll, this is just for my MD options advice.

Thanks for reading this long post, I wish I found this site earlier on, wouldve helped me to wake up in my undergrad years earlier.

Your favorite way of killing time is in the library, I thought we already established that.

And woe me, im hated by a group of anonymous internet nerds that I will probably never see in my life. That feeling gets to me all the time, it really sucks.
 
That sounds delicious!

1. The boyfriend and I will probably go to my family's house for Thanksgiving since we will have just finished a couple-interview round trip. 🙂 Hopefully my sisters will both be home.
2. I think we do a standard roast turkey. BF and I would favor a brine to keep it juicy, but the turkey's always large and in charge so it'd be hard to soak it.
3. Turkey, potato filling, stuffing, green bean casserole, carrots w/brown sugar and butter, cranberry relish/sauce, apple and pumpkin pies.
4. Potato filling <3 <3 <3 (yes, I'm from PA Dutch country.)
5. Apple pie! This year I might attempt to bake one from scratch.

And playa, why you gotta hate? We are all anonymous internet friends here, the keyword being friends. If you can't stand the love, get outta the thread. =/

Yea I suffered from depression my first two years of uni, but I managed to overcome it thanks to some very good friends of mine who wouldn't give up on me. Often times I felt stupid and worthless during those years, but its funny how well you think you know me based on a few internet posts that may or not even be true. That psychoanalysis stuff could help make you millions.

I'm sorry you had a hard few years. I'm sure a lot of us have been there too and can sympathize. I definitely can. But I'm not sure how being a douche to people you don't even know really helps the situation.

So you felt stupid/worthless/depressed but now you are a "mad popular" guy living "life" which includes trolling people on SDN?

Well, that is some life.

The trolling didn't make sense at first, but now with more in light, the SDN trolling appears fitting.
 
That sounds like an absolutely dreadful idea. I hear they are loud and not conducive to studying at all. Plus, if I did that, I might end up with grades like yours, and let's face it, no one would want that.
ba-ZING!
 
Cliff.....love the new avatar🙂

I think i am going to take whoever's advice it was and create a Pandora Christmas channel.

Baller.....does your New Year's offer still stand? I made sure I wasn't working just in case🙂

Gooooooooood morning friends!

Somehow I'm in a really awesome mood today. Ahh, the joys of actually getting 8 hours of sleep!
I love this post🙂 It made me feel warm and fuzzy and happy and my internal batter totally charged up to 31% knowing you're having a good day.


How you treat people, regardless if they are strong or weak, rich or poor, popular or unpopular, influential or not, speaks volumes of your character and your decency as a human being.
So, MCAT guy, I'm really really sorry to tell you this.....but you are now my crush of the week. Especially if you really do look like Franklin.

Half of the texts I get from my husband belong on damnyouautocorrect.com. Here's the pièce de résistance, that I got this morning.

Hubster: I need to shave my head again. My bed head made me look like "Male pattern nakedness Wolverine"
Me: ROFL!
Hubster: Baldness... autotype, my old for... you have vested me yet again!
Hubster: ... I hate you, phone.
:laugh:

1.) I"M GOING TO DISNEYLAND!!!! 😀 Disney, then dinner, then back to Disney with another passholding friend of mine🙂
2.) No turkey for me. It is all about the Thanksgiving Lobster and/or Crab at my house
3.) Lobster/crab, a billion green beans since I eat them by the truckload, roasted red potatoes, and brown rice.
4.) Green beans...hands down.
5.) Frozen Yogurt Pumpkin Pie. Take a quart of pumpkin frozen yogurt, and spread it into a pie shell. Re-freeze it. It makes an awesome pumpkin pie🙂
So let's talk about something else.

1. Meeting up with the family at my aunt's house for some major grubbin.
2. Baked turkey is the classic, i'll take dark meat if the bird's too dry, white if it's nice and moist.
3. Usually mashed potatoes/gravy/sweet potatoes/stuffing/cranberries/some kind of vegetable I probably wont eat/pumpkin and apple pies
4. I LOVE POTATOES!
5. Favorite is any kind of apple or berry pie warm and a la mode!

I'm adding a 6th question: 6. What is your LEAST favorite Thanksgiving day food?

I HATE STUFFING! Soggy bread is gross unless its tiramisu. And even overly soggy tiramisu is gross.


ksmi, the app cycle is going okay over here. 2 interview invites, 1 acceptance, 1 waitlist. Still hopeful for a few more invites so I can possibly stay in Cali :B

😍. I'd like to describe if I could how much I love mashed potatoes. Instead, I think I'd rather tell you what I had for breakfast. Mashed potatoes.

So you felt stupid/worthless/depressed but now you are a "mad popular" guy living "life" which includes trolling people on SDN?

Well, that is some life.

The trolling didn't make sense at first, but now with more in light, the SDN trolling appears fitting.

I said its good to have a life, and yea after I got over my problems I made sure to live life to the fullest to make up for what I had lost. I am fortunate in many ways for my friends and the people in my life. Does that make me mad popular? Does it mean that I have that life I want? Not yet, but that's what im working towards.

I call it cynical responses, you call it trolling, is just because I have nothing else to do right now. There's no need for a psychoanalysis of my past to understand that.
 
I'm sorry you had a hard few years. I'm sure a lot of us have been there too and can sympathize. I definitely can. But I'm not sure how being a douche to people you don't even know really helps the situation.

Well thank you. I appreciate that. Im honestly not really sure either.
 
You guys are making me depressed. This is going to be my first Thanksgiving not with my family due to monetary costs of traveling to see them (stupid interview travel costing too much AND flights costing more over thanksgiving)

Your internet trolling skills are pathetic and wasting your time here with nothing substantive to add is just sad. Your skills aren't up to snuff with Aziz Ansari, sorry. I hope you can find something worthwhile or fulfilling in your life.
 
So, MCAT guy, I'm really really sorry to tell you this.....but you are now my crush of the week. Especially if you really do look like Franklin.

Glad to play that role for the week🙂.

Honestly bro, I wish you the best and I hope that you achieve your goals. I also wish you would be nice to people in here and not insult them. Remember the friends that helped you when you were down? Maybe you can be a person like that for others.

Good luck.

Awww, le tigre, where do you live? Want me to come pick you up on the way to the park? 😀


And MCAT guy.....I need to know more about you. It is for the weekly plaque. Please tell me:
1.) Your least favorite yoga pose
2.) The statistical percentage that, when using chopsticks, you put them in your upper lip to mimic a walrus

and
3.) Your best celebrity impression
 
So let's talk about something else.
