Can I get a T shirt that says “I have Dunning-Krueger and your Phd looks cute”? I just have a lot of BS to share and I don’t want to be sorry about it.

Dunning-Krueger effect is the delusion that you are smarter than a serial killer who stalks teenagers in their nightmares.

Actually, the science says you will feel regret and will grow to resent that shirt over time. /s

That's because today's t-shirts are made of such poor materials.
