Hey, Joanna!
Oh my God!
How's 1L going?
Sorry.
Guys, this is my college friend Stephen. He's
a 3L. How are you?
I'm good. Here.
So, uh, things are a little bit crazed?
Oh my God, I have never been this stressed
out in my entire life.
Like, I thought that college classes were
stressful, but this is a whole 'nother level.
Last week my doctor told me that I'm in renal
failure
from all the coffee and Red Bull I've consumed
in the last three months.
And I just found out I have HPV!
Okay, well, um, I'm not sure what that has
to do with the other things
But as to the rest of your problems, guys,
trust me,
after your 1L year, it's smooth sailing.
Just take a look around. Do you see anyone
else out here with casebooks or backpacks?
Actually, some of them aren't even wearing
pants...
Exactly. Because they're all 3Ls!
Look, trust me, work hard your first year,
and by 3L year, you won't give a single fuck.
Yeah, but what about that girl?
My last year down in Greenwich Village
Every day, better than before
'Cause each time I set foot on campus
I am here to learn
Fuck you
Fuck you
Fuck you
Fuck you
Fuck you
This term I've got a fifteen-credit schedule
Ambitious, yes, but what the hell
Evidence, Crim Pro, and Tax
People tell me to relax
But they just don't understand...
You're a 3L?
You're a 3L?
Why yes I am!
Then why work so hard?
To be honest, I just love law school so much!
The engaging lecture classes, the insightful
and well-written casebooks...
That's nice.
Holy shit, she is the worst.
Oh my God, this girl should be relegated
To a very special place in hell
Always comes to class on time
And she makes her own outlines
I didn't even do that for most of 2L
Mad Men?
Homeland?
In my Netflix queue!
You drunk?
I'm high!
Since yesterday!
My Con Law class?
Taking it pass/fail!
What else could I want from my 3L year?
So! 3L!
Isn't it the greatest? I finally have time
to read a Law Review cover to cover!
Why would you want—
The best arguments are always in the footnotes!
So, wait. You're telling me—
It's just all so fascinating!
—that you're actually interested in legal
research?
It's my favorite thing!
Creative arguments, learned scholars, innovative
approaches to age-old problems!
And you actually enjoy studying law?
Uh-huh!
That's weird.
Why else would anyone attend law school?
Who in their right mind could find law school
pleasant?
She must be mentally unwell
And why would she ever choose
Not to drown herself in booze
After all, is that not the point of 3L?
This is so thought-provoking!
A new method for strict scrutiny
A thesis so groundbreaking
I can't wait to see what
Its impact is, practically!
Wow this girl is so fucking aggravating
She's worse than a gunner 1L
She thinks law school is a place
For intellectual debates
I don't know where she got that idea
No clue where she got that idea
Beats us why she thinks that as a 3L
Well, yes
It's true
3L is useless
But we'd
Like to
Keep it that way
It's our reward
For the last two years
Well, I happen to think that should be changed!
Why would you want more work?
Are you deranged?
Why must some people be so goddamn type-A
It's not like this is a hard sell
Long as you don't pass away
You will graduate in May
That's really all you need to do
It may be fucked up but it's true
That's all people expect from you
3L!
