Via the Onion, Year Of Law School Now Mandatory For Nation's 25-Year-Olds:
WASHINGTON—Under the provisions of a bill approved by Congress and
signed into law Tuesday, every 25-year-old American, regardless of
prior life commitments, is now legally obligated to enroll in a full
year of study at one of the nation's accredited law schools. "This new
measure gives us the means to compel 25-year-olds to simultaneously
placate their parents, impress their friends with complex-sounding
legal jargon, and effectively avoid any real-world responsibilities for
another full year," said Rep. Steve Buyer (R-IN). "We can think of no
better way for our young people to squander their postcollegiate
aimlessness." Congress is reportedly seeking further legislation that
would provide for an additional nine months of grumbling over LSAT
prep, and up to five years of whining about paying off student loan
debt.
