Everyone who bashes Duke and Cornell as wannabe/bad is just jealous!

Edit: howdy folks, I apologize for posting a message where I failed to correctly convey they friendly and jesting sarcasm I intended. I meant to only put out good vibes, especially on a day that need good vibes like today. I thought humor would be a good route, but I failed at it. Good luck to everyone today and know that someone as special as you guys can make any place into the place you were meant to be at!

Edit 2: Nevermind, go to town on those two schools

Oof sorry, man I didn’t know about Stanford. I did a quick search of your profile to try and jest at other schools for a change and those were the two I found. I meant this to be a means of passing the time, and trying to have fun on Ivy Day. I was trying to joke around, I think I’m bad at typing out Sarcasm, sorry to everyone who didn’t like the post and downvoted me :(.

Nah you're good. Sarcasm is hard to convey through text, good luck!

Hey man, saw you had a rough go today, me too, rejected to Duke which I was absolutely in love with, as much as it tried to not recognize it and waitlisted Cornell, waitlist odds are less than half of the acceptance rate, but I suppose I appreciate it. Anyways I just wanted to apologize, I really didn’t mean to spread any negativity earlier I was only trying to joke around, and I just feel shitty about it all.
