What about robot-dancing (or something) in the last defiant moments of life?

If the argument has really degraded to who is busier or who is happier then I raise the white flag.  It isn't an argument I really care about having, and if thinking you are busier or happier makes you feel good in some way it really costs me nothing to let you have that.  Enjoy

You were the one who first implied that Rage was somehow lying about his time schedule. You brought it up.

Provide a quote then.

What I actually said was that I was at least as busy as he is, so his "busyness" wasn't an excuse to let questions lie for 20 days without an answer. Never said shit about his schedule as I have no idea what it is.  From what you have written in his defense it sounds like a lot of babysitting, school and arts and crafts.  I don't begrudge him any of that.

You are basically trying to control how he lives his life. He doesn't have to justify himself to you. It is his life, not yours. No two people are the same. Everyone has their own set of circumstances. You pass judgment on others as if you were somehow perfect. You are in no place to judge. You aren't special.

Now that's hyperbolic.  Even for you.  How am I controlling his life?

I said trying to. You do realize he doesn't have to do things the way you *think* he should. Typical Lawyer B.S.

What am I trying to "make him do" other than back up his assertions?

He is quite openly trying to make me act differently on the board.  Do you feel like a hypocrite making this argument?

The required work week for a newly hired attorney at a large firm is 100 hours a week.  Law school is easy compared to that.

For whatever it's worth, I checked up on this with a friend of a friend who recently graduated law school. They "only" work 50-60 hour weeks.

I was referring to the large firms in NY, Chicago and LA.  The ones with a starting salary of $160k and $20-$80k in annual bonus.  100 hours a week is an extreme during trial prep or doc review, but 80 hours a week isn't at all unusual.  I won't take a job that requires more than 50 myself.

Places like Boies Schiller.  The money is pretty good, but they completely own you.

Projecting again. And yet again purposefully misquoting me. No surprise there.

Misquoting?  Did I change something in the quote box?  Did you not say I am "trying to control how he lives his life"?

Then what is the issue? If you aren't trying to control how he handles his time then you initial comment is pointless. He isn't you and you don't know his life so you can't say whether or not he has time. You are merely speculating. He won't be back till next week. Nothing you say will chanhe that.

You will have to wait. You are not the center of the universe. If you continue with this attention seeking behavior I'll make you wait longer.

Actually *I* am the centre of the universe. You all exist for my personal amusement.

You even have your own magnetic force that causes the planets to move.
