  Political debates on TV are even more infuriating to watch than before.
  
  EDIT/addition: A benefit has been rewatching some of my favorite shows like The Wire, The Sopranos, or Seinfeld and catching the subtleties/brilliance of the writing.

  Facebook becomes essentially unusable, especially when the Supreme Court is releasing their end-of-term rulings.

  Oh Yes so true about FB !! I am off FB for some time now, too much aggravation on many .. many...counts. Love Seinfeld.

  I think this will be a continuing side effect when we become lawyers!

  I second guess myself a ton on tests for undergrad. If the teacher says most or many I immediately think he's an LSAT test maker trying to trick me. The specificness of the lsat has killed me with the generalness of most undergrad tests.

  As a sports fanatic, I personally hate that I can no longer defy logic in arguing for my favorite teams/players.
  Also, the necessary/sufficient condition, something I never thought about pre-LSAT, is something I seem to subconsciously apply to every situation I face.

  sufficiency/necessity has been brought up in different classes so that was helpful. also inferences regarding most -> most or some variation of that type.

  In one of my labs we did the wason selection task yesterday and I skewed the results as a result of my logic games training.lol

  Watching commercials make claims that are so terrible and unsupported. "Recommended by doctors!" How many 1? 2? 20000499? to who was it recommended and why?

  I found myself competing with other people about how much better the LSAT is in comparison to other graduate entrance exams...
  
  ...I see someone in front of me with an MCAT prep book. Pfft.

  "Paper or plastic," you ask? Can I have both? Or perhaps neither? Can I have my groceries put into a box? "Irv, clean up at register 4! Another one of these stressed out LSAT customer's head just blew up."
