Heh heh.  In my work, I'm usually surrounded by guys who either quit
school in the 9th or 10th grade, or just barely graduated.  Among this
crowd you're always hearing comments about how "college boys", though
highly educated, just ain't got no common sense.

And then there's the famous:

B.S. = Bull Shit
M.S. = More Shit
Ph.D. = Piled Higher and Deeper
