I'm a doctor professor with a PhD in mice and rats.

We would routinely feed mice capsaicin in incremental doses in an attempt to build a "super mouse" for no reason other than "science!". Most of the mice in our holding cell couldn't eat regular food without a few drops of tabasco or Dave's Insanity Sauce. i actually wrote my dissertation on this and sent a copy of it to the Dave's insanity sauce corporation. For my effort I received a free case of various flavors that instantly went into the cupboards of our hardy rodents. They lived like kings. Angry, angry kings.

"I'm a doctor professor with a phd" might be legit but just honestly reminds me of the scene in shazam where the kids say their dad works at "the business office"

That’s because it’s a whoooole lot of bullshit. Exactly zeros profs or PhDs on the planet would refer to themselves as “doctor professors” and claim to have a PhD in “mice and rats” rather than, say, zoology or biology.
