[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because it’s true.

Unless you have MD, DOM, or DDS after your last name, YOU ARE NOT A DOCTOR.

A doctor is a physician. Period.

My brother-in-law with a PhD in history IS NOT A DOCTOR. And he introduces himself as “Dr____ all the freakin time. It’s embarrassing. 
[/quote]You sound jealous of your BIL. He earned a doctorate and a title![/quote]

I have a couples titles. too - “ASE Certified Master Technician”, which took five years apprenticeship and a further 2 years as a journeyman to attain, and  “Small Business Owner”, which required years of working for other people before I could open my own shop.

And it’s a good thing for my BIL that his super hot sister married a guy who fixes cars for a living, because Mr. Doctor PhD is too inept to change his own tire.  :lol:   Plus, he always has me around to pick up the check when we’re all out together as a group. He sure can’t with his proofreading job. So it’s nice being the successful son-in-law.

Throwing off total Bro-Dad vibes, but I love it.  :oops:  :wink: [/quote]
