@ricci It is also fun how they include the bit about N. European countries ... whose academic traditions with the tuxes and swords are considered very fun and weird. @ricci As the French developer of a research tool called SNAKES, I can testify that many of my PhD students had to fight it. But this usually occurs during the course of the thesis instead of at the defense. |
@ricci I regret to inform you I also did a search and found more and different fake snake fighting information!
