Maybe it is because, despite all of the whining of working so much for it, we get our paychecks and inside say "fucking "a" I am gonna ride this bitch until the wheels fall off because I make 4+ times what my folks did in their best year." Or maybe we were just never taught how to "act" properly -- and I do mean "act."
*Which is why I left lawfirm life. Working corporate means less of an asshole quotient in my experience. These guys don't gape when I say "fuck."

Trahser, your statement does not only apply to folks who are first generation lawyers. I have a handful of lawyers in my family, and most of them are tightass dickheads (showing me their new BMW at family functions, talking shop, etc... like I give a fuck). The one cool one took me aside while I was in law school and told me to run from law for my life. Comically, he's the most successful of the lot of them. Oh, he quit law by the way and is in business.
I agree that fucking with dorks and making them feel uncomfortable. Its a really cheap guilty pleasure (yes, I also like net porn, AC/DC and Budweiser in cans).
Most of the detritus I deal with everyday thinks they've grabbed the brass ring. Fuckin nitwits. I hate having to discuss cases with the turds when i was busy searching google for 80s centerfolds.
S(and these twits, you can't even ask most them over to your place to smoke a j - its like they grew up in closets)D
