Jesus, NYU Law Kids -- Calm The F**k Down

The stress of final exams is taking a toll at NYU, where thievery and false accusations rule the day.

Look, final exams can be stressful, but you owe it to yourselves to not descend into the state of nature just because you’re freaking out that you’ve forgotten the difference between Impleader and the similar sounding, easily confused, but legally distinct concept of Immolating yourself rather than studying another hour. I mean, get it together Violets! It’s not like you’re from Columbia for Christ’s sake.

That’s why you don’t resort to stealing someone else’s mug. Moreover that’s why you, as the victim, don’t then resort to “self-help” by stealing someone else’s mug:

I guess I should have added Zojirushi mugs to the Holiday Gift Guide. Some of these damn things cost 00 (though most are around $25) (affiliate links).

Look, don’t steal stuff, even if you think you’re stealing it back, and also next time maybe don’t wander away from all your valuable stuff (like your work) in the library. I know it’s a law library, but this is still New York, dammit.

Do you see what you idiots have done here? You’ve turned your lives — and now the NYU listserv (aka Coases) — into an issue-spotter. Go ahead and muse about the elements of and affirmative defenses to the original larceny of some fool trying to adversely possess this mug and the conversion and false accusations surrounding the mug of the second part and the possible breach of the listserv’s terms of service of the… whatever.

Get it together, NYU. Give back this kid’s mug, somebody return that first mug, and let’s get this resolved and off the listserv so we can go back to using Coases for its intended purpose: solving the Palestinian-Israeli conflict one flame war at a time.
