Thanks, Doctor Irvine. Now I get to spend the rest of the day speculating about who this was.

I was an undergrad at Durham, and I was touched that the Philosophy department remembered me and gave me the title of Honorary Fellow when I told them I was back in town. But within weeks I was having this kind of nauseating conversation with people in the university. pic.twitter.com/iO4KTCUtlg

I can’t say it mirrors my experience, but then it wouldn’t: I live in Derby these days. (Possibly since before the mystery professor was appointed.)
