Her purpose is to carry that dog.

Otherwise the dog would have to walk all by itself.

And we all know that evolution has selected for higher forms of dog that are cuter so they have to walk less.

(Trying to do a punnett square)....I am confused. Is this some kind of genetics question!?!? Damn. 😕

Didn't that dog die or something?

Aren't I going to hell for knowing such a thing about Paris Hilton?

Yes, methinks.

ahh after the mcat, i swore i'd never do another punnett square. my entire biological sciences booklet was filled with them. it was disgusting.

 

[rajad10]

no, i'm not cocky, there must be some better looking girls..

but I do enjoy the compliments 😉

have you considered a part time career in....showcasing assets

well she lost the dog at one point. but let's be serious here...can it REALLY qualify as a dog? look at the thing.

IMO, chihuahuas aren't dogs, they're massive rodents.

She lost the dog, she found the dog, she supplemented the dog with some sort of marsupial that is both illegal and stupid for her to have... she's a character.

I'm sure she'll come to your med school and strike her one pose if you pay her the going rate -- $200k

At which point you can say, "Do something else!"

And she'll switch sides so the other shoulder is pointing forward this time.

i'd never give my money to her. i think i'd lose brain cells just from being in her presence.

then again, it could be worth the money just to hear her say, "that's hott" because i still can't believe that it's possible for someone to sound like such an idiot.

 

[SeventhSon]

lol how could anyone say single and not looking.

Come on, girls with no brains and bad boobs need to have a catchphrase in order to compete with the rest of us swimming upstream.

But yeah, your brain cells actually differentiate into other cells so they don't have to process her voice.

I feel like I really missed something when I opened this thread....

 

[BlackBantie]

Hehe...those numbers for "looking for someone in medical school" are promising! >) Anyone else feeling a little "desperate?" Don't get me wrong, I don't really care if I'm single the rest of my life...it's just that if I AM going to find someone, it seems like time is running out. I didn't find someone in high school, college, and now medical school is really the last step before "the real world." I feel that if I can't find someone when I'm surrounded by people my age, what are the chances I'm going to find someone once I'm working full time with people of all ages?

I'm glad that I'm not the only one that feels that way. I remember learning in my sociology class as well as reading various articles on the internet about a large percentage (I forget the exact number) of people find their spouse in college. That depresses me as a single person. It's med school or bust for many reasons now.

hahaha i hope you don't think any less of us for this conversation.

 

[joanofarc0907]

haha never. I am sure there is some good explanation, but honestly, its a bit too mind numbing to try and read it

 

[Oculus Sinistra]

Nah, there's no good explanation. There is only "Paris Hilton" and the phrase "there is no good explanation".

We previously had some quarter flyers explainaing it here somewhere.

If you can't find one just look on the floor.

This one, for instance, has a shoe mark on it. But all the hard data is still there.

 

[Oculus Sinistra]

So I was just wondering...if I were to enter med school as a single gal how many other singletons will be joining me vs. how many of you are in relationships?

Unless another relationship spontaneously arises (one of those car accidents that turned into dinner that turned into walking on the beach at night deals), I'll be entering medical school (eventually) as a single guy.

Which I'm okay with.

Coming from Florida, I'll hopefully be more tan than the next guy.

 

[DoctorPardi]

I am single right now, but I am not applying for another year so who knows. I wouldn't mind going into medical school single though. I think I would like to date another professional, or someone in the health care field.

 

[Katya00]

Well, I'm super hott (the two 't's proves it), but I'm def taken! There was no category for engaged, so I just picked serious enough to be married.

 

[DropkickMurphy]

lol how could anyone say single and not looking.

Well, it could be that some of us realize we aren't going to be around our area much longer and therefore do not see any point in looking for someone in that area. I'm not going into medical school just yet, but I am transferring after this fall semester and personally can not see any point in becoming involved with someone here knowing that I will be leaving in 4 months.

 

[DropkickMurphy]

haha well its temporary...i hate that i like that song, and I had requests to change it from the long-lasting "hips don't lie"...i'll look for a new song just for you guys!! 😀


got it--sexyback by justin timberlake

You consider that an improvement? Barney the purple ****ing dinosaur has more musical talent than Justin Timberlake, and I despise Barney the purple ****ing dinosaur. 😉

 

[mspaic]

[thread derail]

What is "casual dating"? I hear people talking about this all the time, and really, I just don't get it. I mean, I know it obviously means you're "seeing/dating" a bunch of people at the same time, but how does that even work? Do the other people know that you're seeing other people? I tend to only be interested in one person at a time -- or would only allow myself to date people I could see myself in a longer relationship with -- so this relationship juggling thing really confuses me. Casual dating always sort of seems as though people are trying to catapault their way into a relationship just to avoid being alone. *puts on flame suit*

yes, very smart post
its what people do nowdays though - ***** around

but i'm not sure that waiting 'till med (or maybe dentistry for me) school until you find someone is a bad idea , since the majority of people in undergrad seem to have the 'party mentality'

hey, you have facebook?

 

[Shake_yabooties]

I wonder if SDN is representative of the entire medical school population.
60% single and 40% dating/married?

mm

 

[Haemulon]

It's not the norm but it's fairly common. My wife and I are actually in an open marrage right now.

Which brings up a good point, I didn't see a "married but looking" or "married AND casually dating" options on this poll. From what I have seen that goes on in some of these hospitals, it would certainly be a popular option.

 

[Dr.TobiasFünke]

Agreed... THIS IS A FLAWED POLL THREAD AND SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN...

Molly?

What happened to your own poll? I know mine is dying a slow death in the lounge.

 

[sfnix]

wheres the "in a serious relationship but wishing i wasnt" option?

ouch, but i agree. is it impossible for girls to just date a guy who wants to be a physician? i think they immediately start seeing long term security and not mention, $$$. after they realize that, you're done, in for the long haul. not that i don't want to marry the girl i'm dating, it's that i don't even want to think about getting married at all right now. with me on this?

I'm just too lazy to pursue any interests, so I wind up as friends with them all.

A-frickin-men to that. I am perpetually "one of the guys". Sometimes I wonder why I don't hook up with some of them, but then I realize that 1. I'm too lazy for that and 2. I'm not about to act all whorish and ride up on their junk just to get their attention.

I'm far from prim and proper (i.e. I can totally crack a dirty joke and I'm all about the pudding fight) but I'm not about to wear revealing clothes, apply too much make-up, and just start making out with some dude at a party.

Then again, it all comes down to ladder theory. 🙄

Yeah, showing interest just requires too much effort. Someone had better be quite compelling if I'm to go out of my way to express my interest or try to get a date.

I'm with you: there's no way I'm going to wear revealing clothes, apply too much make-up or start making out with some dude at a party. 👎

hey i never reaized you're a girl when i read your previous post

anyway, i quickly looked at your profile thing in the med school applicant page , amazing

are you russian?
i'm serbian..

 

[Severus]

I'm with you: there's no way I'm going to wear revealing clothes, apply too much make-up or start making out with some dude at a party. 👎

Word.. I mean, I have all these friends who basically just start macking on some random guy at a bar and then end up leaving with him later that night, and I'm just sitting there like "wtf? eww". yeah, there's no way I'd do that.

 

[Severus]

Why thank you.

Yup, I'm a girl. 100% female (readers of the Philadelphia City Paper should get that one. )

Alas, not Russian. Just a Rusophile. 👎

aha second 'Rusophile' i've come across this summer.. that was not russian
i dont kno what is about russians you guys like

i mean i dont mind them, they saved our ass in wars numerous times, actually we're 'friends,' kinda like canada/usa

anyway, yea i got tons to do in the next 4 years to catch up with your credentials.. actually i just came home from a volunteering thing now

but there is no what i'll get my gpa THAT high no matter what i do aha

 

[mspaic]

see my theory is that most girls in uni are 'typical' (ie. they have the party mentality and evertyhing that goes with it)

but trust me, if you meet one thats not 'typical', it's well worth the effort

 

[Looque]

It needed to be said. YEAH!!!

Any opportunity that presents itself, I'll bust it out.

Have you been putting it to good use in the lab?

 

[defrunner]

Wait, Severus and looque are girls??

Damn I was fooled. I would never have guessed.

As for meeting a random guy at a bar and then going home with him, it does happen and it doesn't mean it's that bad. I mean, at least in my situation, if I meet a girl at a bar and things just kind of happen to the point where we want to take the party elsewhere, I'm all about going with the flow. I do make the conscious attempt not to let it go too far, though, because you just never know.

It doesn't happen as often as you would think though. It just seems like it because it happens to different guys each time you go out.

Sometimes though, I'll get a girl's number and we just hang out the next night or something when we're both more lucid, so to speak. Again, this doesn't happen that often (mostly because I don't like to hit on strange women for some reason). Besides, I have no game.

 

[Looque]

I'm a guy. I was just making a joke earlier about not making out with guys at parties (although it's perfectly true that I would refuse to make out with any guys ever).

EDIT: The make-up and revealing clothes part was also a joke, although it's again true that I don't wear make-up or revealing clothes (do they make "revealing clothes" for guys?)

 

[Haemulon]

Yeah, that's conducive to spreading diseases...

...and BABIES EVERYWHERE!!!!

Ok, all the safe sex stuff being a given, I feel compelled to point out that your starting to sound like the 40 yo virgin. Especially saying that takes too much energy to show interest in an attractive woman?? 😱 Sounds like you may need a hormone boost buddy. Intervention! Intervention! Put down the MSAR and get out there! 👍 You'll be surprised how much energy you get when you crush on someone.

 

[Dr.TobiasFünke]

There is always protection and birth control. I like sex a lot more than science and medicine... there, I said it.

I recognize that having sex doesn't automatically produce babies and that I dramatically overstated the risks of safe sex. That stated, I don't care for the notion of random sex/hook-ups. This stems from a personal experience.

But really, it does take too much effort to express interest. I'm a pretty content guy, so the status quo is not something that I'm desperate to destroy. However, if an assertive person of the female persuasion approaches and impresses me, then sure, I'll go with it. I'm only going to make the effort myself after I know I'm very interested, which typically would only be after a couple dates, so that initial thrust is on her.

And an MSAR? Nooo, no. I don't own one and actually have never laid eyes upon one. I'm happy about that.

I like it more than alcohol too...

 

[Dr.TobiasFünke]

I like it more than alcohol too...

but sex WITH alcohol is another by far the best

You still sound like a virgin.

Its all good man. I'm just pickin on ya.

Nah, I know you're just joking around. I gave a brief description of what happened in an older Pittsburgh thread regarding the ethical/moral dilemma essay. Not a virgin, but very restrained now.
