Needs a little stitching back up, but nothing unexpected & thx. :)
vivesection
That's valid
Oh yeah? Well my dissertation on automated weapons systems was able to defend itself.
Congrats tho.
Autonomous gun turrets can be... very... persuasive.
Now with 50 percent more bullet per bullet!
Congratulations!

Haha, I think I had a few years of this, but this place was a good outlet.
Is it even legal to use this template on days other than Wednesday? But don't worry, I won't report you to the meme police. And congrats, of course.
More highly frowned upon than outright illegal; a hard stare should suffice.
Defenses call for different rules.
Now we can say “What’s up Doc?” and mean it. 🐰🥕
It was hard work, I’m sure, but now you’ve got it made! I mean, now it’s easy street for you, right? Nothing but champagne dreams and caviar wishes, right?
What an honor!
Congrats!
Why tweezers have been nailed down tho?
Please tell me no AI.
Seriously? That bothers you more than the frog having human-like organs?
However I'm pretty sure those aren't tweezers and they aren't pinned down.
To prevent them from floating away of course (look at their shadow)
That's not what a frog looks like inside at all.
Oh, wait, this is that thing about explaining a joke and dissecting a frog, right?
Anyway, congratulations, Dr!
Im impressed you got to the end with how much shitposting you do! Congrats Dr. Fossilesque!
Congratulations! I wish I could hear about your thesis without identifying you. I'm sure it is great and fascinating!
More like dissection.
Congrats!
or vivesection if the frog is alive.
Congrats, buddy!
First tell us what thesis you successfully defended, and then we will let you know whether you are on the right or wrong side of history.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_C._Scott I am influenced by him a lot with more raw original & big data.
You're James C Scott, but better?
Fuck it, you have my vote too.
Edit: I'm an anti-agrarian non-statist myself just FYI
Lmao I wish, I just find his frameworks useful. My stuff is more dry and STEM. I reconstruct past environments by reading dirt and look at the consequences of early state formation.

Very cool, and congratulations. <3
Congratulations. I hope your edits are few and potential publications are plentiful. What was the topic?
"The definitive case for eugenics"
"An improved analysis method of Phrenology"
"the long term benefits of trepanation, a meta analysis."
Trepanning is back, baby! NSFL warning. Dude has his friends help him dremel a hole in his skull so he can like totally open his third eye or release the demon chakras or whatever.
Can't find it, but there was an interview where someone talked about poking their meninges with a metal rod and having a 'spiritual experience' or something. Also, bong rips feeling bubbly in the skull hole.
"When I stick this metal prong into my brain at an angle my feet start tickling!"
Amazing meme choice. Sounds like a fun read.
Congratulations! Eat shit, Dr. Kilimo.
congrats!!
Doctorate then? My mother was doing a doctorate but stopped right before the dissertation.
He CEO of Beijing Corn!
Congrats !!!!!!!!!!!
Why are my ! censored? I put at least 8, I can only see 3.
Don't worry, I see more than three ! In your post. :)
Epic, Bufo.
Well done, doctor!
From the looks of it, you were many things, except successful
