We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.

In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.
Our full terms and conditions apply too.
Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
Moderators, I feel sorry for you and am surprised at you. I am sorry that you have to endure tripe like this. At the same time, you are supposed to be following your publication guidelines. Those state that content being published should provoke thoughtful discussion. That implies a degree of selectivity. Either change the guidelines to reflect that even nonsense like this falls within your ambit, or actually follow the guidelines. You, I and all who read this site know what the purpose behind such a post is, and what it devolves into. Albert Campion so beautifully says when asked about his capability to "talk bilge" even in the most serious and pressurised of situations that he "learned to talk the language by reading advertisements". Margery Allingham, who wrote the Campion books and is therefore the creator of the self-styled "Uncle Albert", would have surely written "advertisements (and Legally India)" had she lived to learn of this website and what it has become. Sorry for the repeated references to "golden age of detective fiction" novels (have been a huge fan since I was a kid), but those of you who waste your time posting such things are what Mr Gaunt, one of the primary characters in Ngaio Marsh's Roderick Alleyn novel Colour Scheme, would describe as "an insufferable bore". Is that really what you want your legacy to be?
