people are...funny (and lame-ish)

i watched this documentary last night. yeah...the documentary's topic itself is a whole other post, and i don't have the mental energy for that right now. as is customary with me, i have way too many opinions on it, and that post would take me hours.

but the funniest part of the hour-long documentary was seeing this guy who, for some reason, has chosen to study Jack the Ripper as his profession.

and the guy's title is "Ripperologist." seriously, no joke.

i DIED laughing. he probably makes like $200K a year doing that, too. i wouldn't be surprised.

my question is WHO decided "Ripperologist" was a legit profession - enough so that the title kept appearing under his name every time he was speaking on camera.

i'm now inspired to create my own (fake) profession and come up with cool title to fit.

*fingertip to chin in deep thought mode*

me thinks i'll become a "Post-itologist".

in this profession, i will study the phenomena that are self-stick note pads. i will give speeches on the array of colors in which they can be found.

they also come in cool shapes - like arrows, stars and hearts.

i will demand $1M a year to give this knowledge to the world.

plus $300K per documentary.

but don't fret - even though i'm now a big time post-itologist, i'm still my same old down-to-earth, generous self....

....i'll bring free post-it samples to every conference.
