Was with a large customer a few weeks ago. In a meeting with procurement, guy is rocking a giant A&M ring. He figures out I went to UT. I could give a F about who went to school where, we're all grown men. He told me he was "sorry to hear" I went to UT. Unreal...

Pretty clear that those people must have peaked in college. It's a sad statement to spend your whole life defining yourself by where you spent just four years. Get on with your fucking lives people.

That's Miami of Ohio, not Florida, I recognize the plates. Pretty sure it's a Top 100 university in the U.S.
Also, hey, if that kid busted their ass, good for them. If you've got the means, why not spoil your kids a bit?

Miami University. Is that like Univeristy of Phoenix? Sorry not impressed. People that brag have issues and major insecurities. Thats why Facebook is so popular. A bunch of people talking about themselves and sell promotion. No thanks.

There are roughly 2,000 4-year colleges in the US.

Well sure, but my cat can probably get a degree from a few hundred of those for "life experiences." There aren't that many good schools that would warrant a tasteless license plate bragging about your less than perfect GPA though.

A friend of mine in the Air Force used to tell young pilots that bragged about how good they were - "If you are really good, you will never have to tell anyone." I think that is solid advice for all of us in anything we do.
