I do have a Masters from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.

(Yes, I've hit TEN claims on NCAA titles: 8 from North Dakota and 2 from RPI. Or do I get two double-count UND because I have two degrees from there?)

I don't think grad school titles should count. Nobody gives a **** about their grad school's sports teams.

I think you get 1 point for every title for your bachelors, and half a point for every title for your children's and parent's bachelors.

If the mayor had an R after her/his name, we would never see this caveat from Kep, with a D, it's we can't rush to judgement. :p

I thought every rural county in MI was solid red?

Basically I think of MI as NY with less snow but more cold. Everything urban is blue, everything rural might as well be Mississippi, and the suburbs are blue if they're near a college and red if they're second generation immigrants who are fighting their way up the ladder.

Kep, you going to respond to his 100% accurate claim? Or just dodge/deflect/ignore like usual? I've come to expect nothing else, but for some reason I remain with a glimmer of hope that you'd actually own up to your biases once in a while. Goldy hit the nail on the head with this one.

I have never made a secret of my biases, unlike some here.

Thanks, I hadn't had my daily bowl of B.S. yet. That was a good one.

It's funny that you behave in much the same way that those who you decry the most behave themselves. Only you're allowed to do it, but when they do, POUTRAGE!

You confuse butthurt with outright amusement at your hypocrisy. I'll admit perhaps it used to frustrate me, but now I just enjoy calling you out on your nonsense. You're so convinced you're pulling a fast one over on people here, but we're all truly laughing at the effort.

You're repeating yourself a little, so here are a few more ideas for schoolyard zingers. Be sure to get your smugness right. And remember, as things go poorly you can always posture.

I think I've helped you enough for now.

Thanks for posting your photo Kep, I always wondered what you looked like, but I certainly assumed it was very much like that.:D

I was trying to find the guy from Back to School, but that's close enough.

My photo, is of course, this. Except a little less Keith Hernandez and a little more Apollonaic God.

Once upon a time you had your photo on the web along with that of the cat.

Hey now, they do if the undergrad school wasn't competitive in a sport or played in a pointless league.

Meh. I still think if you care about your grad school's teams you aren't doing grad school right. You're supposed to be sipping Chianti at a coffee house and chatting your students into bed.

That's for PhDs. Master's students had to pay their own way, so they don't have Chianti money, and don't interact at all with undergrads if they're doing it right.

Yeah, law school is drinking beer at a sports bar while cursing out your professors.
