When Your PhD Is in Honorary

WHEN YOUR PHD IS IN: • EDUCATION • SOCIAL SCIENCES • HONORARY • ASTROPHYSICS • BIO-MEDICAL ENGINEERING • APPLIED MATHEMATICS "EXCUSE ME! IT'S DOCTOR!" "CALL ME BOB." Pure math Mathl. Physics "Please, just don't call me."

A meme contrasts people with impressive or honorary PhD fields who insist on being called “Doctor” with a bearded man who has a PhD in pure mathematics and mathematical physics but asks people not to call him that. The joke is about the difference between demanding status and quietly having genuinely intimidating academic credentials, so it is used as a reaction to humblebragging or unnecessary titles.
