Joe Somebody

A few people have been airing complaints about my quips this week. I stand by my principle of only operating at the level of my audience.

Whitecastle: That's just a way for journals to get more money out of poor academics.

Moi: Like academics have anything better to spend money on.

Whitecastle: Like my mortgage?

Moi: Psh, mortgage-

Whitecastle: Shmortgage? That was predictable.

That low grade burn was not so predictable. But it's good to have Whitecastle back. Two weeks ago, I gave him a cookie and all he said was 'thank you'. It made me very uncomfortable.
