GRAPEFRUITS Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 Last time I checked, "bajillion" wasn't a real number, so you'll have to excuse my skepticism. Dense on purpose, you're the king of sassy. That's never been done before. I'm impressed. bluetubeodyssey and mirandaw 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spore Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 This thread makes me sad. Only in a world of annonymity is this possible. Grapefruits, when I started PhD school I thought I was the bomb. I was super smart and science, beware! I quickly learned, yeah, I AM smart, but so are a whole bunch of other students and faculty. And there was tremendous amount I could learn from them...every single day. Thinking and acting that way only made SMARTER.

Spore, PhD (2008, Molecular Genetics and Microbiology) Wow, please point to the place where I said I was smarter than everyone else? My original questions were, "Who the hell are these people who keep posting to these forums while in graduate school? Shouldn't they have stuff to do (this is graduate school, after all)? Why don't they interact with their peers to get questions answered from reliable sources?" And these questions arose because there is little good advice given on these forums. Who knows how to get into grad school? NOBODY, that's who. I just want to know why someone would stick around here and give their $0.02, even though it is worth far less than that. Potential grads freaking out together, sure. Some *current* graduate student with 3274349 posts? That's pretty lame, I don't care how you try to defend it.

I think that you're deflecting a good point by alluding to the one post of yours that didn't insinuate that you were smarter than everyone else. Yeah...the first post was only you being hypocritical, by telling us it's so pathetic to stick around these forums after getting into a program. By the way, congrats on getting into a program! Maybe now it's time to make your exit! wine in coffee cups, bellefast and go3187 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANDS! Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Who the hell are these people who keep posting to these forums while in graduate school? Shouldn't they have stuff to do (this is graduate school, after all)? Why don't they interact with their peers to get questions answered from reliable sources?" This is the dumbest statement so far in this thread; only a damn fool would willfully close themselves off to ALL avenues/resources in regards to future graduate work. "Ah, there's an ENTIRE forum of current, about to be, and hopeful graduate students. . .naw, probably no helpful hints/reminders lodged in there. I'll just stick with asking Professors 20 years removed from the graduate process what it is like." Dumb.

mirandaw Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 If you really wanted me to make my exit, wouldn't you stop replying? This is Internet 101 stuff. The basic "dont feed the trolls." You're admitting you're just trolling? Because obviously you're getting SOMEthing out of this forum or else you'd be long gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because obviously you're getting SOMEthing out of this forum or else you'd be long gone. Also they skip the relevant post right above them and go straight for the knee-jerk arguments. Typical troll, also covered in internet 101. obsessovernothing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
