Last night was the kick-off for Homecoming week, and the law school SBA has events planned for every night this week leading up to the football game on Saturday. Trivia Night was first on the list.
I don't know if you guys know this about me, but I kinda rock at trivia. Usually. Trivia with law students is very different from trivia with the general population, and out of 20 questions, I was only the clutch player on about 2.5 of those questions. Ouch.
This is due to the general high level of intelligence of law students in general, but I also noticed another tendency that law students have. We're all ambitious, and we all want to win. In the past several years, we've been taught how to maneuver through the holes in arguments and create arguments on the fly. The teams that didn't get a question right immediately searched for a flaw in the question or the delivery, because that's what we've been trained to do.
While I was a little worried that Trivia Night would be taken over by the douches who were treating a fun, non-school event like they would treat a mock trial, the night turned out alright. Maybe alcohol acted like the oil of conversation, maybe they realized they should keep the law jargon to a minimum. Whatever it was, it turned out to be a fun night.

"This is due to the general high level of intelligence of law students in general"...I don't think you needed the "general" twice, kind of redundent.
10:01 probably hasn't gotten laid in ages.
you are so funny!
Every anonymous commenter on every website everywhere in the history of the internet is hilarious. Only online jackasses who are proud of two-word alliteration could triumph over this mysterious "anon." Quick, when was the last time I got laid and in what position?
It really makes me chuckle when people criticize and within their criticism, they misspell. Or is that redundAnt?
