Back from Eternia

Group of 20-somethings chatting:

Woman 1: ...I got a Masters in Education.

Man: Oh. Y'know what you should have gotten? A Masters in Astrophysics. Then you could be a "Master of the Universe."

Woman 2: But with her degree at least she can say "By the Power of Grade School!"

Wow...that's some fine quick-wittedness on the part of Woman 2.

I finished my M.F.A. right around the time the third season Doctor Who finale came out. I wanted to go around telling people "now you can call me Master", but it was too corny so I only made the joke twice.

I know this is old but I literally burst out laughing. Needed that tonight.
