Lend me your souls!
Yes, the humor relies on some pretty low-hanging fruit, but it's funny because it's true. This is also true: I was all set to take the LSAT (read it out loud, it's funnier that way) when I visited one of SLB's law school classes. I happily blew off the test after seeing what it really meant to go to law school and never looked back. No, instead I looked forward to A) being an academic, and then B) being a teacher, both of which commonly twist fresh, young idealism into virulent, filthy cynicism. Oh, and I make less than a quarter of what SLB does when I'm able to find decent work. So... I win?
Maybe this stay at home mom gig isn't so bad after all.

I, too, went with a friend to one of his law classes (I didn't marry him later on, though) and it disabused me of any notion I had of going to law school. I even talked him into leaving halfway through to go drink alcohol.
He has a pool now.
leaving halfway through the class or halfway through law school? there's a much bigger gold star in it for you if it's the latter.
