Despite the picture, in both marriage and PhD programs approximately 50% of successful candidates are women.

There’s always something at least a little off about anybody who earns a PhD.

I’ve met a lot of them, and some of them are good at hiding it, but it’s always something…

I found out today a moron I went to grad school with published a successful book. He’s also an “important” person’s son, though, so it’s less of a jealous thing more of the “this world’s fucked” thing.

My PhD isn’t super useful though so yeah, throw it in the remorse file.
