Thoughts on MBE Day

The California Bar is now 2/3 over, after a day of the multiple-choice questions from the Multistate Bar Exam.

My brain is numb.

One more day to go.

But as I gathered with hundreds of other law students in preparation for filling in hundreds of little ovals with a No.2 lead pencil, all I could think about was the great movie scenes in which writing implements were used as weapons.

The first one that comes to mind is the scene in the first Bourne movie in which Jason rams a pen into the hand of his opponent. Then there is the scene in Daredevil in which Bullseye kills Kingpin with a pencil to the trachea. I’m also told there is a scene in Redeye, but I know nothing about that movie.

Any other such scenes that come to mind?
