Let this be a warning, people, don't be stupid on the internet.

When "I thought I was anonymous" is a legit reason for being a douchebag to others.

Didnt know "+1" actually meant "me too". I thought it was more like high five 🙄

This really shouldn't be a problem since it's entirely the user's fault for making himself/herself identifiable.

Also, how's that Nexus 7 working out? Kinda wanna get one...

I love it so far. It's the perfect size in my opinion. Ten inches is just too big for me... also, Jelly Bean is pretty nifty.

I thought it was when you received an acceptance.

 

[Ost3oclast]

I thought it was when you received an acceptance.

I always thought II meant that somebody received a secondary. Didn't know it stood for interview invite haha

 

[Arbor Vitae]

I thought it was when you received an acceptance.

it could be for anything, if someone just posted they got accepted, and so did you, then you can say +1. could be for anything like secondary, interview, rejection, etc. Basically it's like saying "me too" or "I agree" in certain situations.

When you discover that clicking on your name allows you an option to attempt to friend yourself, then laugh maniacally when after you submit the request you receive an alert that reads, "You can't be friends with yourself."

I seriously almost died. I'm still laughing. And I swear I'm not even near drunk yet.

 

[PikminOC]

Dunno if this has been said because I didn't read the thread yet, but, you know this when you get your acceptance rescinded because of SDN.

at least you admit when you dont read the entire thread..i almost never do either.

In psychiatry, you can be friends with yourself. 😉

You know you are on SDN too much when you view the people who viewed your profile and then you view who has viewed their profile...and so on...

or is that just me?

The N.D. vs M.D. thread was truly one of the more entertaining ones.

 

[PreMedOrDead]

Here's my favorite so far:

When someone offers you application advice, you nod along in agreement, and then they cite their source as a post on SDN. This post happens to be yours.

I almost choked on my food at that one. Only at that point have you realized you truly put too much time into these boards.

Hah, indeed. It seems as though there are some tacit alliances on SDN.

Ooh! Just remembered this one.

When you find out that you reviewed and critiqued your classmate's personal statement as an SDN PS reader...

I think some of them are not tacit at all.

Some of the lapdogging is so ridiculously overt.

It is ok to disagree with someone in one thread and agree with them in another.

You don't have to agree with someone all the time and throw in your 2cents about how wonderful they are on EVERY THREAD.

Ridiculous.

[Winged Scapula]

you get excited about new emoticons, like.... *suspenseful music* the flame!


A long overdue necessity considering how much flaming we have going on around here.

Anywhoo, I'll start it with that. But like the "Funny quotes from 'less informed' premeds" and the "Memes that capture the spirit of the application season" threads, I hope this one keeps going so we can laugh at ourselves.

Cheers and good luck to those applying.

Glad you like it.

I was fooling around one night, adding the and had just seen an episode of Flame Princess when I decided to add her; I couldn't find a smaller icon.

It was supposed to be my little secret. You guys are so smart.

According to WebMD, the average incubation period is around 4 days. Obviously, you know nothing about hilarious diseases.

. . .[continuation] giving advice to (and quipping at) eager pre-meds interested in surgical specialties for 2 years while somehow managing to ignore most of the inane questions rather than verbally assaulting those that ask them, much to the antagonists' dismay. I loved neusu's joke, though, spot-on:

How much do you make, is your wife hot/what's her cup size (1-10: 1 being a pile of dog poop and 10 being heidi klum), what kind of car do you drive, what's your glove size?

j/k, good ama, hope the kids appreciate it

EDIT: Also, when someone spoofs accounts just to slaughter a poll? When did we go from 36 yeses to 330+!? That can't be legit... Penguin was winning.

Agreed, but (as you probably know) there are more questionable studies out there.
