Lindsay, and Peter Boghossian set out to write absurd papers focused in areas like gender studies, women's studies, and the like. They submitted the papers to respected peer review journals and watched in astonishment as many of them were accepted and published.

Yiddish is a language that has a lot of words that express personality qualities and types, particularly loser types or mean types or conniving types. These words often combine humor with rueful sarcasm and cynical realism about the vagaries of the human condition.
