Menlovian (repost from the345wall.blogspot.com)
It turns out that one of my classmates has been blogging his experiences (legal, sexual, fecal) on menlovian.blogspot.com, and he cited our blog as a fellow BLSer's blog. yay. Slightly inaccurate, but appreciated. Now we just need some content... hrm..
EDIT: Menlovian is a reference to a case: Vaughn v. Menlove where the defendant (Menlove) stacked his hayrick too high. It subsequently caught fire (think of the haystack like a compost heap) and his neighbor's house caught on fire. He sued Menlove, and hence the suit. Menlove's torts professor, while discussing some exceptionally stupid activity, referred to it as: "Menlovian". The author of menlovian.blogspot.com (who has successfully managed to keep his identity a secret from most of BLS) considers himself to be performing in a 'menlovian' manner in school, and chose his self-deprecating (and hilarious) name accordingly.
REPOST EDIT: this would be a much more accurate description of a BLSers blog. Too bad I didn't advertise :)
