I love it when researchers think they're cooler than other researchers. It's a ridiculousness beyond pot, kettle, and glass houses. Today, Doc #2 (it's hard coming up with all these pseudonyms) was late to our division meeting because he was coming back from a faculty meeting in a different department at Harvard. Doc 2 was wearing a sweater vest.
Doc 2: ... and the projects they were talking about aren't as exciting as the work we do here-
Doc Query: But they probably wear more sweater vests.
(uproarious and smug laughter abound)
I know, you're sitting there thinking, "what?" But that was all it took for the entire division to shake in self confident howls. It was pretty awesome.
