This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
how about a slightly creepy message in your inbox?

akin to a one night stand?


haha well if you construe the very fact of our digital relationship (daily AIM conversations) in sexual terms then I think we're friends-with-benefits.

You chat daily with j on AIM but only send me the occasional wall post? I'm hurt. I want to be friends-with-benefits too!

[reaches for facebook, and adds OncDoc's SN to buddy list]
 
I'd be mad at J for not actively trying to convert me via AIM, but we've never actually met (though in this day and age, isn't being Facebook friends more or less the same thing?).

And all this cyber-innuendo and slight and Facebook friending...it's SDNcestuous! I am well resigned to the fact that I have absolutely no anonymity, but I care not.

so punny.

SDN is such a great procrastination tool.

Wow, onc, you get around...


How are you doing, btw (aside from the sleep schedule/homework dilemma, of course) Any exciting rendez-vous as of late?

Why does everyone want J? We talk on aim pennquaker. I'm cute and straight. I could try to convert you but you never asked...
 
Oh snap!

This thread just surpassed the vent/whine/complain thread
 
I know, and I do love you so Onc...but you're taken 😀. I'm not sure if J is or not (CHOP blocks Facebook...boo), so I'll err on the side of singleness.


And btw...compare us to the pre-allo people...I got a good chuckle. What is it about wanting those extra 4 years that makes us so much more fun?

So now you're saying I'm a cyber-slut eh? Thanks!


Other than homework, sleep and nervousness over Penn all is excellent. I will PM you!

check the time stamp on facebook when you get home and then look back at SDN

should be interesting 😉
 
Imagine us as a class for 8 years at White Dog, New Deck, etc....this is just the tip of the iceberg.

It must be lunch time. I just glanced at your post and saw "iceberg lettuce."

(Which I think is a worthless nutrient-less vegetable, so I must be desperate)

Recency effect??
 
i'm pretty sure this thread is the result of major senioritis

I have 3 days of class a week.

This week I only made it to 2 days of class...

True. Wait but are you still taken? Why I am asking you this rather than via our AIM conversation I have no idea, I guess I hadn't posted in like 10min and felt left behind.
 
I wouldn't mind a little pokey-poke from Penn...

I could not agree with you more...I /despise/ iceberg lettuce! It's just all water, no nutritional value whatsoever. There's a pizza place where I come from that has the most amazing pie ever, but their salads are awful--entirely iceberg. Yet all of the customers seem to order them (they don't come with the meal). I always fail to understand why. I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone there, being the only one not eating an iceberg-only salad. I want to get up on the chair and yell, "What is wrong with you people?"

On my more cynical days, I look at life and say, what really is there? We can't even prove we exist...so maybe they're attracted to it because in some sense our entire existence is tantamount to iceberg: just a lot of water held in place. *sigh* It's all just iceberg.

are you high?
 
No, I just get worked up about things that don't matter...verklempt, as we say. Like a liberal Antonin Scalia. When we meet, you'll see this.

Ok, didn't mean to mar your reputation.

adcoms reading this, pennquaker is a stand up gentleman!


p.s. oncdoc thought i was some crazy arch-conservative...i think we all need to meet up and set some pre-conceived notions aside!

arch-conservative = ...arch nemesis
 
but i'm not an arch-conservative!!!!

now, we may be arch nemeses

(I never said you were one - you cleared that up in your previous post. I was just stating a fact.)

are you talking about you and meowcat or you and me?? WE can't be arch nemeses, I've never met you (but I wish I had!!)
 
OMG, I just missed out on a whole lot of fun. This thread beats all of pre-allo for sheer hilarity. :laugh:

I've met Pickles and marctam at NYU, pennquaker at Yale, solitude at Yale, Duke and Harvard, j-weezy at Harvard and... I hope I'm not forgetting anyone else.

Pickles, how could you put me on the spot about you and J? 🙁 Obviously I know one of you better (and for a longer time) than the other. From what I've seen you're both cool, of course, but in your own ways - comparing you two is like comparing apples and oranges. (I am nothing if not diplomatic.)

Pennquaker, how come I'm not your Facebook friend? 😕

I stopped using AIM years ago (too much of a waste of time).

I wish I could stay in touch with all the awesome friends I've made on the interview trail. It's been a blast.

Ok, must stop procrastinating and get back to thesis... 🙁

I'm working on my thesis too. Stay and procrastinate!

You're quite the tempter, aren't you? Oh well.

ETA: I was just thinking... how would you classify our long-winded e-mails about the meaning and purpose of life and such?
 
Hmmm...it seems an odd oversight that you and I aren't FB friends. Do add me...I'm in the MD/PhD applicants group 🙂.

hmm, I guess long-winded and pensive?

(I've been informed that was harsh, but I meant that mine are that way!)

(OK and I've been informed that you were asking for our digital relationship status: I suppose it would make us very deep friends-with-benefits)
 
Pennquaker, I can't find you anywhere on FB. Even in the MD/PhD group. Waaaah! Try friending me instead.

LOL! Thanks. Lots of behind the scenes PM'ing, I gather? And I don't think you were too far off the mark the first time; mine were melancholic and long-winded, too! But then there were good reasons for that.
 
shouldn't it be melancholic?

whoa...did i correct someone's grammar?
 
Eh, that's what comes of living in this country... the longer I stay the worse my spelling and grammar get!

Uh-oh, I think I may have started a flame war... *Runs and hides.*

How about... Melon-colic

Haha sorry...I guess it's because I'm invisible in searches (but I thought members of groups could see me)? And done!

Yay! Now we can be in touch.

Fortunately or unfortunately, I'm not going to offer to convert you... because I'm clueless about these things and wouldn't know how to go about that or even where to begin, haha. 😉

ETA: Pickles, that 'Melon-colic' picture was awesome!

Heh that's probably a good idea. I'm pretty darn gay and I don't see it happening, no matter how hard J might try 😛.

And do feel free to IM me sometime! I love to chat about random, procrastinatory (I just coined it, yes) things.
