I used to love to read these essays on how to be a good and productive grad student... until I came to grad school. Same with phdcomics.

LOL "TriinT" I know what you mean. :)

I think I'll keep reading PHD comics, just because it's really funny. I don't relate it to grad-school as such. Just the whole exaggerated sense it is written in.

phdcomics is funny, but not if you're phd student =)

  • They're still funny even years after I finished my PhD :)

    • But were they funny when you were doing it? I mean they're funny, but they're so negative I don't like to read them. At one point another PhD student printed out and put up one of them (it was the one which had a time plot about how you get more and more demotivated over time), and I actually took it down.
