Some people (like you) can handle it...and others can't. There's an element of over-sharing that tends to be present in many "AI Journals" that we've seen here. Just like rush threads, there are people that can write an excellent rush threads, naming the school and the sororities by name, and there are people who should have just kept their mouths shut, because it ended up costing them.
