Well…I kind of agree and already know, but I think that joke and semi-truth, taken too far, can be borderline disrespectful and diminishing of their work. I say that with a life full of folks connected in various ways, I assume your comment comes from a similar place.

Yes, it’s something I’ve heard from the psychologists themselves. They seem to take a certain pride in it, or at least the ones I’ve known have. I didn’t intend to diminish the work they do, which is to provide a critical service towards our understanding of humanity.

It’s a fascinating field of study, and my psychology, sociology, and anthropology classes were some of my favorite classes in college. My psych 101 class was like someone lifting a veil from my eyes.
