Jerry: Ya know, I feel a little funny calling somebody "Maestro."

Kramer: Why?

Jerry: Because it's a stupid thing to be called.

Kramer: Jerry, he's a conductor.

Jerry: Oh, conductor. He conducts the Policeman's Benevolent Association Orchestra.
That article was an absolute embarrassment.

@DanRather

Dr. Biden, good on you. You earned your title. It’s not like you got your doctorate at Trump University.

If that buffoon Phil guy on daytime tv is able to call himself Dr. then the WSJ should shut up and leave Dr. Jill Biden alone (just leave her alone!). Feels like they are trying to make a birther like story...Rick Ball will be kicking himself for not thinking of this.

Come on now, the fact that she calls herself a doctor is almost as ridiculous as John Kerry claming he has a science degree from Yale.

You can't trust these people!

She has a PHD and she earned it, it is not honourary. So yes the US will have a Dr. as First Lady, and a Doctoral In education is a really good degree in my opinion. Educating the next generations is important, and studying and improving our educational methods is important.

As for John Kerry he went to Yale and has a Political Science degree; personally I think politics is a very interesting branch of sociology.

I do not understand the need to try and undermine someone's educational accomplishments.

Woah. She has a doctorate. She earned the right to use the title.

In fairness, in order to be an awesome Nova Scotian, you HAVE to be crazy.

The link didn't work? It shows up for me. Sorry.

It was the idiot Congressman that was making fun of Kerry for having a "science" degree, and Kerry responding "it's an arts degree, are you being serious right now?!"

For the record, if you earned a PhD, you 100% should be called Doctor. The fact that Dr. Biden is being criticized for being called Doctor is part of the alt-right's attack on education.

Hahaha... it was very, very obvious to me, especially knowing your posting history.

Y'all need to change the batteries in those sarcasm detectors.

Yeah, me too haha. And yes Maritime I spent enough time out there to know the crazy level. It's an endearing crazy though, I could retire there so happily.

Well, I don't expect people to know my posting history. Heck, even if you do, I alternate between sarcasim, direct debate, and debate talking to others and not the poster themselves.

I debated with myself on putting the text in green, then thought the video would work.

Apparently the video I linked doesn't work for everyone though.

Hey man, you're more than welcome. We've got salt in the air, great beer, and a view of the ocean. What more do you need?

You just need to tolerate our... "unique" sense of humour.
