I can't believe my all time favorite has yet to be mentioned:

"The only way you will get into medical school is as a cadaver."

Haha, yes! First uttered -- to my knowledge -- in reference to streampaw's admissions chances. 🤣

 

[Lucca]

FTFY

Ty, phone was not cooperating

 

[gannicus89]

"Do not cross me... for I am a black cat."

I kid.

 

[efle]

In URM threads, "nobody bitches about legacies"

 

[Gandyy]

FTFY

Wait, hold on now. This doenst look like a "Wily Old Dean" to me.

 

[goldy490]

That looks like a diabolical young dean

 

[Lucca]

In URM threads, "nobody bitches about legacies"

Since he's from New York I just imagine a cat with a Jerry Seinfeld voice:

"What's the deal with legacies???"

 

[DokterMom]

Can't believe this one hasn't been mentioned yet:

"dishonest doctors start out as dishonest students."

 

[BluMist]

Don't fish in the same pond

 

[ChrisMack390]

Lulu, YOU, I accept to my school!

EDIT: ALL of you, I accept! Now help me hold down the wily old Admissions dean and make him type up some letters.



Y'all made my day.

I was 50/50 on whether you'd be flattered or creeped out by this.

 

[Affiche]

"I could tell you, but then I'd have to reject you"
"softball questions"
"My young colleague"
"I'm from New York, where we use 'f you!' as a greeting"
"gawd"
"rachiee" or "rachiie03"
"immaturity doesn't have an expiration date"

Jesus Christ I have so much material. @Goro, I didn't realize how much we've talked 🤣

 

[BluMist]

... and you didn't even create the thread /disappointed

Responding to a quote above the text, like this!

I'm surprised that @rachiie01 didn't start this thread 😛

Or like this!

Now I'm curious how many levels quoteception can go...

"I have a similar question of my own, and no, I'm not sharing."
"Guy to girl, 'I'll still respect you in the morning' is what we think of 'you're my number 1 choice' comments."
"My students take 'future colleague' very seriously"
"I'm a hard ass" (aka big softy)

 

[Traumweber]

This is lethal.

 

[jb94mg]

@Lucca stole my favorite. 🙁

"No clinical exposure? If so, that's a kiss of death."

"4.0 automatons are a dime-a-dozen."

"Start the list with Harvard. Yes, Harvard."

"Hmmmm...it appears that satisfying "smack" you heard in the background was the banhammer nailing the Batman, and deservedly so! Moderators, you have our thanks."

"Ahh, the sweet sound of the banhammer in action!"

"Banhammer cocked and loaded - wait for it!"

"And splat went the banhammer!"

"Do try to suppress your inner troll."

"Tx: Xanax."

"I can't sugar coat this: you are in a world of hurt."

"Ahh, nothing like the smell of ignorance in the morning."

"Contrary to pre-med urban legend,"

 

[altblue]

* ice bucket story when something dumb about Harvard brought up*

 

[Goro]

You kids!

How about some LizzyM isms or gyngynisms?

 

[PREMEDitated22]

"My students stop "X" before they walk through the door" 😛

 

[deleted393595]

Don't forget @gonnif 'isms!

"Concrete shoes"
"My upbringing in the Bronx"

 

[NeuResurgens]

Anything related to crusades against the Caribbean schools

Jokes about him actually being a cat

 

[Lawpy]

You kids!

How about some LizzyM isms or gyngynisms?

LizzyMisms are quirky puns.

Fishing... not my thing but some adcoms might be hooked by it (oh, the pun -- please forgive me).

Your goal is not to have the masturbation accusation come out, if you'll pardon the pun. Does beating off in public while drunk come under the "belligerent behavior while drunk"? Belligerent seems to suggest fighting but it seems you're not a fighter but a lover... was it Woody Allen who said "Hey, don't knock masturbation. It's sex with someone I love." In any case, I'd think you want to do all you can to keep the details of the event out of the public eye. (There I go again.)

Can't think of any gyngynisms, Catalystikisms, gonnifisms, Law2Docisms or mimelimisms at the moment

Yo, Yo, Yo, what is this 'ting about me from the Bronx? What? Do I gotta rap you across the face for such disrespect?

I am from Brooklyn! Get it thru your thick head; aint no freakin' Bronx, no way, no how.

Fuhgettaboutit

I stand corrected

 

[Almighty Saguaro]

Don't forget @gonnif 'isms!

"Concrete shoes"
"My upbringing in the Bronx"

What about this one I just came across:

the few legitimate and sincere candidates are easy to spot over the ones with oddly darkly tinged noses and legs with dirt stains around the patellas.

Took me a minute to get it, then I LOL'd 😛

 

[Affiche]

You kids!

How about some LizzyM isms or gyngynisms?

They vary their responses a bit. Less predictable.
But I can always count on @gyngyn to have an opinion in the "women's interview clothing" thread

 

[sharkbyte]

Whenever a troll is trying too hard:

"He's got nothing on mrh125 or the Batman!!!!"

EDIT: I Can't believe it took until the 2nd page for someone to mention "4.0 automatons are a dime a dozen" lol

 

[Gandyy]

I'm not sure GynGynisms exist to be honest. I cant think of anything. What about you guys?

 

[SuperSlim]

[Affiche]

No. He's nice enough to spend a ridiculous amount of time helping all of us out and he obviously wants to remain anonymous, so please respect that.

 

[Cyberdyne 101]

 

[SuperSlim]

This is against SDN's TOS. You should delete this post and the thread you linked ASAP.

Thanks for quoting

 

[Gandyy]

I'll give you guys a big hint as to where Goro is.























Somewhere West of St. Louis.

Oh man, before he started using color this was so confusing! I was there for the transition, when the genius of Goro posts suddenly became 8x easier to parse!

LizzyMism would be anything about applicants standing on the steps of a giant staircase, elf on the shelf stories, etc. I'd have more, but now that I think of it I feel that I've run into fewer of her posts recently?

 

[BluMist]

Wow, I didn't even realize I do the same thing as @Goro in term of responding above the quote.

I read through tons of emails each day; the latest reply on top just makes more sense to me.

 

[medic86]

Apparently it caused a big blow up in the other thread or is that the wrong choice of words?

OMG, YOU USED THE WORD "BLOW" IN A SENTENCE.

YOU MUST BE A MISOGYNIST!

 

[mehc012]

Wow, I didn't even realize I do the same thing as @Goro in term of responding above the quote.

Not when the thread reads down...absent of an externally dictated flow, sure.
Also, in an email the assumption is that you read all of the prior responses and are responding to the most recent message, whereas with threads the quoting is necessary to show exactly what the person is using as a jumping-off point. So in an email, the quote isn't even necessary except hidden below for reference, whereas in a thread, the quote is necessary to make sense of the post. Quoting below your response requires reading backwards.

 

[altblue]

The best Goro smackdown lol

Which specialties HAVE TO wear scrubs? Or definitely don't have to? (I don't like wearing scrubs.)

First, get into medical school (something for which I think the chances are diminishing every time I read one of your posts), THEN worry about attire.

 

[TheZaLord]

Well done.

"Medicine is a calling, like being a priest or a fireman."

 

[tea guzzling traveler]

A sad but what seems like true one in reference to people with anxiety/mental issues applying to medical school: "Medical school is a furnace..."

 

[Doctor Dream]

One of my favorite quotes from gyngyn-
"Dream schools are like dream girls: better in the abstract than reality."

 

[Mad Jack]

"I concur."

-Goro

 

[Dohnut]

"My school only accepts the best and the brightest" when in fact he works at an osteopathic school LOL

I hope this is sarcasm. If not then it's possibly the stupidest and most ignorant post I've ever read on SDN.


Edit: Replace the "possibly" with "definitely"

 

[familyaerospace]

"Send an app to my school."
-when he's complimenting a poster's effort, stats, etc.

Of course since no one knows where he is, it does make it difficult!

 

[familyaerospace]

The Legends say that say that Goro is a cat.

He is, in fact, a cat.

 

[familyaerospace]

LOL.

Why havent I heard that one before?

He also has a good one that goes something like 50% of premeds aren't fit to be in medical school not even as a cadavar.

 

[Lawpy]

"My school only accepts the best and the brightest" when in fact he works at an osteopathic school LOL

"I see Noomm got banned. Ahh, the sweet sound of the banhammer in action!"

"What did Noomm pull to finally get nailed (deservedly) by the banhammer?"

"Repeated and gross outright immaturity also triggers the banhammer. It has a satisfying smack, I have to admit."

 

[Goro]

That one I stole from the wise gyngyn.

One of my favorite quotes from gyngyn-
"Dream schools are like dream girls: better in the abstract than reality."

 

[Hospitalized]

How could I forget!?

"Patience is a virtue, the need for instant gratification is not."
