Transcript

Person 1: "Finally finished doing my citations - took me 2 days" Person 2: "Really? Why'd it take so long, can't you just generate them from Mendeley?" Person 1: "I prefer to do it the traditional way - feels more rewarding" Person 2: "Right... what's with the stone slabs?" Person 1: "Oh I also prefer to carve my papers on to tablets in cuneiform" Person 2: "...you're an idiot"
