Have you noticed what I have? Mathematicians can't do arithmetic. Physicists are uncoordinated. Computer scientists don't use Windows. Doctors lead unhealthy lives; they don't sleep enough; they smoke. Psychiatrists are crazy. Social workers' families are dysfunctional. Spiritualists are trying to take your money. Humor researchers are not funny; they have bad timing. Philosophers couldn't care less about wisdom. Among linguists: Syntacticians speak in incomplete sentences. Semanticists can't hold a coherent conversation. Phoneticians are deaf (includes me and my phonetics professor). Both geneticists I know have adopted children. My friend the underwater photographer is fat: he floats. Is this evidence for a general theory of professional incompetence? Hmm...
