Well folks, I'll still pop in from time to time, but my race is run and it's time for the next group of leaders to take it from here. I can already tell that I like the direction things are going. So for this week's picture/GIF, here's some of my favorite humans, in black and white, smiling:

Sorry this is so Euro/male-centric, lol. Feel free to add your own!

The Full Schedule

And if you’d like to see the full schedule for upcoming reviews, here it is: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=h14k4idvt1lb4hp5ujds97qt7k@group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/New_York

Note:

For everyone: take the PT under timed conditions; BR as you are able on your own; then join us for all or part of the call—everyone is welcome.
Note: For the purposes of the call, we like to check our group blind review score together at the very end of the call So at least don't say ... "No guys, really, it's D, I checked it.” KEEP THE CORRECT ANSWER TO YOURSELF. Win the argument with your reasoning.
These groups work best when folks from ALL stages of prep and with all different goals join in! Not just for "super-preppers" and definitely not just for the casual LSATer (does such a person exist?).
The only expectation anyone has for these calls is for you to have fun and ask questions as you desire. We are just a bunch of LSAT lovers who gather via GoToMeeting and intellectually slaughter each test.

Aw! Sad I didn't prep in time to be part of your BR groups!

Cant Get Right · 2016-11-20T22:29:45+00:00

Nice add @montaha.rizeq !

Cant Get Right · 2016-11-21T01:57:35+00:00

Bonus karma to anyone who knows who this is:

Cant Get Right · 2016-11-21T02:03:15+00:00

This technically violates my "smiling" requirement, but this is as close to a smile as this guy ever got:

Cant Get Right · 2016-11-21T02:09:31+00:00

Benazir Bhutto is neither European nor a dude:

That is Jorge Luis Borges. He is an author/philosopher.

Cant Get Right · 2016-11-21T02:14:14+00:00

Nicely done @Sami !

Sami · 2016-11-21T02:15:40+00:00

haha I may have just asked Siri to google that picture for me

Technology these days :DD

Cant Get Right · 2016-11-21T02:21:02+00:00

Wait, we can google pictures now!? Lol, well you lost your Borges karma but perhaps you get a little back for honesty!

Sprinkles · 2016-11-21T02:23:13+00:00

Um have you not watched Catfish, Josh?!

Sami · 2016-11-21T02:24:26+00:00

haha yes, we can google pictures now. If you right click the picture it should give you a list of options; one of them will say "search google for this image". If you select that option, it will find whoever that person is.

Cant Get Right · 2016-11-21T02:24:43+00:00

When I was 6, @montaha.rizeq , I watched my uncle "clean" a catfish, which does not mean what a 6 year old thinks it means. Scarred me for life.

Sami · 2016-11-21T02:25:48+00:00

so what does it mean?

Sprinkles · 2016-11-21T02:27:01+00:00

Wait, yea, what does that mean then loool

Sprinkles · 2016-11-21T02:27:16+00:00

Clean the insides?

Cant Get Right · 2016-11-21T02:29:46+00:00

And the outsides. While it's still alive.

Sami · 2016-11-21T02:29:56+00:00

clean the skin of the catfish?

btw I was probably 5 and this lady told me to hold this fish she had just caught it was still wrigling, it made me scream.

Needless to say, I have never seen fish the same way since that day.

Sami · 2016-11-21T02:30:44+00:00

Why do it while its still alive? Why not kill it first? : (

Cant Get Right · 2016-11-21T02:32:48+00:00

I do not know. I remember a line from "Huckleberry Finn" where Huck says that they're supposed to taste better when they're eaten immediately after killing. Maybe that has something to do with it.

Sprinkles · 2016-11-21T02:32:48+00:00

Yeah why when it's still alive lol

Sami · 2016-11-21T02:33:56+00:00

umm, I don't know if I would like to eat something that went through that much pain. That's just straight out of a horror movie right there.

Cant Get Right · 2016-11-21T02:35:44+00:00

Yeah it was pretty brutal to go from thinking you're going to give a fish a bubble bath to skinning it alive. I may have made a scene, lol.

Sami · 2016-11-21T02:37:28+00:00

also, Gollum liked to eat fish really fresh.

Sami · 2016-11-21T02:38:09+00:00

awww

Cant Get Right · 2016-11-21T02:38:50+00:00

Raw and R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R-Riggling!

Cant Get Right · 2016-11-21T02:40:00+00:00

And that kinda counts towards our series. That's the happiest we ever see Gollum. So he's basically Smeagle at this point. Not in black and white, but I think he counts.

Sami · 2016-11-21T02:40:17+00:00

loool

I always feel weird when my dogs catch a bird. That bird has a family too. My dogs don't care. lol

Cant Get Right · 2016-11-21T02:42:00+00:00

Here's another excellent person in B&W:

He obviously hasn't watched Catfish! LMAO

I never thought the fishy were going to get bubble baths! That's the funniest thing I've ever heard!

This whole thread had me dying! I too had the experience of watching my relatives "clean" fish. My family has a lake/pond behind their house so there was fish at least once a week. Barf! I absolutely hate fish! I will not eat it and I blame it on watching them "clean" the fish on the front porch every week. That's the only thing I hated about spending the summers with my granddaddy. As a kid I just couldn't understand why that fish was still flopping when his head was just chopped off??! Very traumatic! At least I didn't have to watch them slaughter hogs like my mom did! Gross!

I know what "catfishing" is, if that's worth anything. Is this something I should have seen, lol? I'm old, so y'all have to tell me about these things!

@tanes256 said:

Indeed!

BinghamtonDave · 2016-11-21T19:20:19+00:00

I guess I will get in on the fun

Cant Get Right · 2016-11-21T22:25:36+00:00

That, I believe, is George Orwell. I don't know his biography so I can only judge by his work when I say that he is, indeed, and excellent dude. Definitely B&W, and yeah, I'm calling that a smile for full credit. Good add @BinghamtonDave .

twssmith · 2016-11-24T00:00:26+00:00

Josh, This is bittersweet... Thanks for all you have done for the BR calls:)

dantlee14 · 2016-11-24T00:36:57+00:00

did anyone else get booted from the call?

Sami · 2016-11-24T00:37:14+00:00

yes

Howdy, Stranger!
