So I may have not told you guys this, but I wasted 8 years in law school for a fucking PhD I wouldn't use.

That's the eye catcher today. We've only attempted to get a PhD four times before this.

It went horribly the first 2 times. I mean, we still got the PhD, it's just that the thesis we wrote at the time was absolute shit. I knew, they knew, he knew, she knew, our professors knew, we all knew. Yet it was somehow decent enough for us to still get that degree.

I, for the life of O's ass, cannot fathom how the bloody hell we managed to get those PhDs. We have a reason for going up to a master's only when it comes to grad school degrees.

How the fuck did I manage to finish it earlier than most people? Simple, I'm Kodokan; our law school programs are like the UK's. Don't ask me how, it just happens. The undergraduate programs aren't too bad & due to the many years of experience in going through law school at least once a century, I could finish with less problems.

What about that PhD? Yeah, I crunched that, although to be fair, it wasn't by much. Professor I had at that time was extremely suspicious though. The "whys" will be saved as shock factor later on (if we can finally continue that episode thingy).

You guys should keep in mind we are in Kodoka & Kodoka's law school programs are closer to that of the UK's that the US'. Just saying.

Now what about those previous PhDs of shame? You'll see soon. They weren't bad bad, but definitely far from great. Everyone knew we could do better.

Can I name drop who did this? Yep; barely anyone even knows where we were as "Kyurem" at the time nor knew our aliases. Even if they were aware of our true identity, they're either dead or under NDA.

The first dumbass that thought of getting a PhD in physics was Will. Kodokan physics, to be exact. Absolute hell.

The second dumbass was Whitney, who got a degree in surgery. She majored biochemistry before that. Now we have one too many neurotoxins & healing gasses in our house.

The third dumbass was Brandon, who got a doctorate in electromechanical engineering. It actually wasn't too bad if it weren't for how we had to rush getting it after ending our extended first run of the 20th century for a "certain war".

The last dumbass became a doctor in civil engineering in the form of Korrina. She made some locomotives (most actually are still active) & then dipped.

Their theses sucked ass. Yeah, we know we were beginners, but we spent several years making master theses, surely a PhD one wouldn't be as difficult.

It was harder than we thought. Now, go look at me back in 2008, pre-Team Neo Plasma. I'd just turned my thesis in. I thought it would be as bad as the previous PhD theses.

It wasn't. It actually was worth something over mediocre. This was one of the few times we were happy over a thesis paper.

Then graduation happened, then the other boring stuff like trying to find work while maintaining my AnataRecord. Oh yeah, then Team Plasma kinda kidnapped us. I think we know what happened here, but if you wanted full details, that's a story for another day.

I'm quite tired typing this up now. Have a nice day.
