Just like society has dropped both the "N word" and the "r word", we need to drop the satirical retort "bite me" because someone may take it literally.

This hinders social skills.

BigLaw needs to screen for maturity and psychology now.

100% correct.

It's Biglaw. DC is about Biglaw.

From this thread, I learned there is an r/Biglaw

And they have a DC office.

Can't be fired then. I smell lawsuit.

I hate big law with a burning passion. She probably did something strange but the way they are gleefully destroying her (when I’m positive many summer associates and firm lawyers are fired for sexual assault and harassment with no fanfare) is just disgusting.

I was a summer associate the summer of “Aquagirl” and the way the other summers and blogs were going on and on about her was just so gross. It really turned me off BigLaw (not that I needed any additional impetus really).

She was trying to be "kawaii" and "glomping" is what kawaii girls do.

I watch a LOT of anime and this is not really a thing. Maybe in a romantic context but there is plenty of anime about the Japanese workplace and there is no touching, much less biting.

Biting people is not “a serious error in judgment”. It’s assault and battery.

I consider it foreplay. I hope someone banged her.

Kawaii girls bite? Glomping is an over the top hug.

I don’t doubt the biting but the OP’s linked story was definitely written with AI. Poorly.

I want to hear from her law school classmates. If she supposedly bit more than 10 people at work, she was acting this way during classes in May.
