Two days ago, I reported an upswing of the Multiple Choice Question score (hereinafter MCQ). Today, the score went back down. And the average score on that particular practice test was 10% higher than mine. All because of 5 lousy questions. But in all fairness, the questions were pretty fracking stupid.
For instance:
A landowner invited some friends, including his neighbor, to a party in his backyard. A friend who showed up produced a large, dangerous-looking skyrocket and lit it. The skyrocket did not make it up into the sky, instead, it went to the neighbor's yard, hit the garage and burned the garage to the ground. The neighbor sues the landowner. Under what theory is the neighbor most likely to prevail? (NOTE: this is a paraphrase because I don't want to get SUED for copyright infringement, even if it is a very very thin copyright, thus NO exact copying.)
A) landowner failed to exercise due care in controlling the acts of his guests
B) landowner is strictly liable for harm from abnormally dangerous activities on his land
C) not important
D) not important
Which answer do you think it would be? Well, it wasn't. It was answer A.
This is typical of the MCQ. Sometimes, when it comes to Constitutional Law questions, it gets really hairy during the explanation of the answers. I did one a few days ago that pretty much had no reason, but exists just because. In a small infinitely dense ConLaw spot in the Universe. Unattached to anything else.
What is left of a person when you take away everything that they know? Everything they understand? And then give them one giant acidic stomach? How things have changed me. In this current state, I would not say I like food. Or eating. Or want to think about food. Neither cookie, nor cake nor tasty morsel excites my appetite. In fact, I tend to cough a bit whenever I get really nervous. Google tells me that it could be acid reflux causing the cough. It burns a bit in the back of my throat right before and after I cough.
I wrote a flashcard today that said: In other words, the Defendant was making world-saving goo and it got onto your property. Tough sh*t for you. Private nuisance action DENIED.
