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

Ty, phone was not cooperating
"Do not cross me... for I am a black cat."
I kid.

In URM threads, "nobody bitches about legacies"
FTFY
Wait, hold on now. This doenst look like a "Wily Old Dean" to me.
Since he's from New York I just imagine a cat with a Jerry Seinfeld voice:
"What's the deal with legacies???"
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.

"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 🤣

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)

This is lethal.
@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,"

"My students stop "X" before they walk through the door" 😛
Anything related to crusades against the Caribbean schools

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).
Can't think of any gyngynisms, Catalystikisms, gonnifisms, Law2Docisms or mimelimisms at the moment
I stand corrected
What about this one I just came across:
Took me a minute to get it, then I LOL'd 😛
They vary their responses a bit. Less predictable.You kids!
How about some LizzyM isms or gyngynisms?
But I can always count on @gyngyn to have an opinion in the "women's interview clothing" thread
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.

Thanks for quoting
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?
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.

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.
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.

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

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"
Of course since no one knows where he is, it does make it difficult!
He is, in fact, a cat.
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.
"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."
How could I forget!?
