"an odd lot (with a few too many spillovers from the Autoadmit cesspool). "

Who does this LeiTTTer think he is?

The best part about the Leiter post is that someone calls him out, and his defense is so weak it's shameful.

Not violating Title VII, not enough employees -- unless he chooses to hire 15 female assistants. And that would just be cool

Err... so I can't write "F*** You" on my bar exam? I wish my professors would have told me that during law school. It might explain my grades.

I'm sorry, the correct terminology was "F*** Off". Maybe that is why my professors gave me the grades they did. Inexact use of legal terminology. Pfftt.

6:39 has to = SEN because it is glaringly obvious that none of the other ATL commenters want her back at all, we thought it was good riddiance the first time

"The anonymous folks at Above the Law don't seem impressed, but they are, admittedly, an odd lot (with a few too many spillovers from the Autoadmit cesspool)."

7:31 - Probably not Gyllenhaal, but other Hollywood stars have production companies w/decent-sized staffs.

Lat, you've confused "shout out" with "dis." Leiter is saying ATL readers are scumbags. He's right, of course, but you've never claimed otherwise. As you've said many times, ATL is just a tabloid. Leiter is also right about the migration of readers from AutoAdmit. You have an immigration problem and electrified fences won't solve it. Better call Lou Dobbs.

why not have people write in about experiences they've had with recruiters (positive or negative). it's very apt for times like these.

wow, no comments on Carmen in the Naken Women Wrestling League....too many commenters concerned with being labeled "odd"

8:42 - I think the lack of comments on Carmen Electra just proves how odd this crowd is.
