I need inspiration - HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

OK, here's my quandary:

I have to write my PhD thesis, but I'm a waste of oxygen these days. Even moreso than normal, if that's not totally impossible to belive. I can't even get started, even though I have lots of the material already written in the half-dozen papers that I've had published.

The question is how can I get going? Please inspire me. Feel free to fling the needed insults/pics/anedotes that will help the Sucker become Dr. Sucker. Thanks! I'm hoping that this thread becomes a repository for all that is good and bad with OOT. Don't let me down, all!

In my graduate program we were allowed to use our papers as the main chapters of the thesis but needed bridging paragraphs to join them into a cohesive text. Can you do something similar? What are you studying?

Matt Flynn is a doctor and it doesn't sound like you are going to pull it off. Man, that's got to burn.

Just think of the city-burning, cop-calling, mother of all blackout times you're going to have when you're done.

Offer to pay everyone $1 who replies to the thread if you don't start your thesis in the next week, but then... never follow through with it.

Imagine you sitting peacefully at your desk reading oot, all of a sudden a fat man is trying to give you anal. I would get working on the PHD thesis.

This is sort of like asking for directions to an AA meeting at a bar...
