If Harvard were to reject me because I was making fun of the Toby Stock obsession, misquotations in an article about me, and myself, which some people misconstrued as arrogance, well...
Fair enough, I suppose.
If I got an e-mail from HLS tomorrow saying they had rejected my application because of some overblown controversy on a pre-law discussion board-- well, I would first laugh. Then, I would be glad that I didn't spend $150,000 to go to a school where they make application decisions based on such a thing. Any school where I apply certainly has the discretion to accept me or not based upon the actual merits of my application, and I'd never be so prideful as to think that my applications are failproof. However, I can't imagine that the dean of an admissions office at a top law school would be as quick to judgment as would be necessary to reject me for such an overly-hyped post.
