Welcome to a new series that will start after Match Day. Some of us have been through an exhausting, grueling interview season of fake smiling, wearing uncomfortable polyester-blend suits, and asking nonessential questions about programs that are all essentially the same. During these 3 months, most of us have probably encountered an awkward moment with an interviewer - whether it be on our parts or the assistant professor of [insert medical specialty] or current resident. And we want to hear about it! We will compose a blog about the most awkward moments we encountered on the interview trail 2009-2010. All submissions will be anonymous, and don't fret, overly cautious MS4s, this blog will not go up until everyone has matched. Blog readers, come out of the woodwork, and participate - send your most awkward interview moment to mariamq786@yahoo.com.
-- By Mariam, who will scream if anyone ever asks her, "Do you have anymore questions for me?"

How are we supposed to submit them? In the comments? Then it wouldn't be very anonymous, now would it?
No, silly. You can email me! I left my email: mariamq786@gmail.com
You mean anonymous to the blog readers, not anonymous to you. I know you won't give anybody up since you are so good at secret keeping... I assume that's why your hair is so big...
Yeah, sorry I meant, anonymous to the blog readers, but not anonymous to me. Don't worry, your secrets are safe with me. I'm no Andrew Young.
Wow, the response I've gotten has been overwhelming...oh wait, NOT.
When describing how we were going to amputate a patient's leg I used the words "Lob off" during an interview. Yeah, WVU probably thinks I'm crazy now. Good thing I didn't match there.

Lob off is an accurate statement. I don't know what all the fuss would be about :p
