people who act like jerks on the internet

You know, I fully believe in and support post graduate education and am impressed by the people who achieve doctorates.

OTOH, if you open a support ticket for a video game by putting your name as John Doe, PhD, I'm going to think you're a jackass.

And then! Then! If you support it by BEING a jackass -- specifically by being the kind of self important, patronizing jackass that WOULD put PhD as part of their name AND think that they are better/smarter/whatEVER than someone else working an hourly job outside the hallowed halls of academia AND try to be all hot by copying and pasting things that have NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ISSUE AT HAND --

well, then you just make me glad I never bothered with a degree and reinforce my desire to never set foot in college again.

Asshole.

We have a douche like that in the fish club. He's the reason I stopped going, actually. People like that need to be punted off cliffs.
