Latest SDN Article! Keeping Costs Low as a Pre-Med
My high school graduating class (in my town's only high school) was 7 students. In other words, I'm emphasizing my rural background.
Wow. What would be even more remarkable would be finding someone who didn't hate "Gigli."Rafa said:

If I didn't already have a cabana boy, you'd be it based on that.
I've always wanted to watch that just to see what all the (negative) buzz was about. If nothing else, it would probably be great to make fun of, like any Chuck Norris or Jean-Claude Van Damme movie.jackieMD2007 said:
Edit: Blood Sport may be the one exception. I like that one.
I aim to please, what can I say.jackieMD2007 said:Longer than 7 mins!?
Oh!!! Can I PLEASE see your essay based on this one!??!! PLEASE!! I'm assuming you've got LORs to back it up.narc said:I last longer than 7 mins. That's a winner with the ladies
Well a lot of these posts fall into one of the same categories:nekrogg said:
a. Someone write my PS/Secondary for me or help me edit it!
b. I can't figure out how to use AMCAS/I have a weird AMCAS situation
c. I want to debate some hypothetical issue but don't want to go to the Dr's lounge
d. What are my chances? (I can't even find the WAMC thread!)
Yes, your mother wrote me a very nice, detailed LORrunningmom said:Oh!!! Can I PLEASE see your essay based on this one!??!! PLEASE!! I'm assuming you've got LORs to back it up.

To Whom it May Concern,
My name is MILF and I just want to take the time to tell you how well qualified narc is to become a physician. I must first start out by saying that it has been a long time since I have done the do, and when I did the do with my husband it only lasted for 6 minutes. Narc lasted for 7 whole minutes. Since he has stamina he would make a great surgeon. I'm mean 7 WHOLE MINUTES...that lasts longer than most surgeries, right?
I will continue to update your committee on his progress. He has a fine future ahead of him. Maybe next time I will be able to report 8 WHOLE MINUTES.
With much validity,
MILF 
If you want a truly terrible movie, I think The Octagon (starring Chuck Norris) takes the cake. I've seen Delta Force 3, and The Octagon runs polygons around it.zach1201 said:

(I really wanted a frothy beer mug emoticon, but for some reason SDN doesn't have one.)Ditto: english, Pittsburghese, baby-talk and enough chinese to know when I'm being called a dumb American by my husband.runningmom said:
I have this fear I am going to talk to my interviewers like they're two year olds since that's how I talk all day long. "Aaaaall done. Do you want to be All Done with the interview? Bye bye, say bye bye. Bye bye, see you! Bye bye door! Bye bye!"
A serious reply: I talked about my rural background, growing up in poverty (so freaking degrading having to write this $hit) and my status as a non-trad mom to a special needs son.
I thought that was from The Legend of Ron Burgandy. Did I miss something? But, for the record, it sucks that Mitch Hedberg died.Looque said:Here's to small town pride... and Mitch Hedberg
Dr. Acula's screen name is the Mitch Hedberg reference I was lauding. And yeah, it definitely sucks that he died...he had so much comedy left in him. I was fortunate enough to see him perform twice before he died, though.Billy Shears said:I thought that was from The Legend of Ron Burgandy. Did I miss something?

Hm... I guess I haven't seen Scrubs enough to know. I know Mitch Hedberg has a Dr. Acula joke, so I guess it could be either if it's also in Scrubs.Anastasis said:I thought his sn was a reference to scrubs.
To those wondering, i chose Dr. Acula mainly because of Scrubs, Mitch was secondary.

That's a bit of a ridiculous comment, don't you think? You have to remember that not everyone sits on SDN 100 hours a week like some people. Just because you haven't been around here long enough to read some of this stuff doesn't mean you are an idiot. It's not all that unreasonable of a question, and you can ask a question like that whenever you want. If it's so idiotic, why did you bother to read it?? This question is nowhere near "beyond stupid" compared to some questions, and maybe the op just want's to get an idea about what people write about. Who is more of the idiot the person who posts the question or the people who respond?hermit said:
