Just heard a blurb wherein a certain big-name university has started to pimp off its rep by offering an online substitute for education, “tailored to both men and women” (hard to know what that would mean, exactly -- a garment that doubles as a codpiece and a bra), and offering “credit for life experience”. That’s where you don’t have to even do any coursework; they just give you their imprimatur -- “Flipped burgers, eh? Killed your stepparents, huh? -- Fine; you’re good to go.”

We now return you to your regularly scheduled essay.

Sounds like a pretty good deal except it’ll cost you hundreds if not thousands of dollars plus a lot of pain and paperwork. Accordingly, WDJ Worldwide Global Enterprises is now offering a clean and painless solution. Simply fork us a fittybone in small unmarked bills, and attest that you
(a) were duly born (unlike for Obama, multiple birth-certificates are not required)
and
(b) are not just some brain-in-a-vat,
and we will personally give you credit for your “life experience”.
