    Nah, according to my one daughter, (ME PhD), is when you get your masters, they let you play with all the cool toys. If you get your PhD, they let you be boss and take all the toys away from you…

    So true, who thinks ‘I want 10x more of that’ after the masters dissertation?. You think 'I need a vacation but I have no money and live in moms basement now

    But that’s another story…

      I had a scholarship for the Ph.D. If it’s free, it’s for me. 7 years of pure suffering for FREE!

    Something that always bothered me about comics is how the bad guy was almost always the intellectual who used their brain to solve / create problems while the good guys solved conflicts by punching things.

      Why? That’s what american culture is.

      We think scientists are evil and football players are heroic.

      The only time american culture lauded scientists was post ww2, but that didn’t last very long and the national push for sciences declined by the 70s.

      We also love rich and famous people, don’t forget.

    The PhD process is so miserable and long that it will turn any sane person to the dark side, yes.

    And if you stay on in academia rather than get out of it, well you’ll end up pure evil, but at least you’ll be cloistered and can’t really do any harm to the real world.

      But given how often they’ve managed to escape containment, the reality is the checks and balances on the system are woefully lacking.

      Teaching young people can be counted as doing harm to the real world can it not?

    And (American) lawyers clearly come from The Upside Down, because you get a doctorate before a masters.
