I regret to say that the Economics Department will not be able to offer
you financial aid or recommend your admission to the University of
Minnesota Graduate School. Your credentials are strong, but some other
applicants appear to be better suited to this program.

Your application... is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response did you even come close to anything that can be considered a rational thought. Everyone at our University is now dumber for having read it. I award you no funding, and may God have mercy on your soul.
