My niece has a Doctorate of Nursing. I'm not sure if she's Doctor Nurse, or Nurse Doctor.

Hopefully your niece isn't like this, but the nursing PhD's drive my wife (ER physician) crazy, because they'll walk into a patients room and introduce themselves as "Dr. Whatever". Confuses the hell out of patients when my wife then goes in and introduces herself as Dr as well, they don't understand that the nurse is still a nurse, just with a degree.

An adherent to the Jill Biden school of doctoring.

PA’s are calling themselves doctors and they do not have a doctorate AKAIK. It’s mildly irritating.

I had a great aunt who had one in nearly every room. They were all the size of a compact car though, and certainly didn't mount on the wall.

"Flat screen" meant something different then.  Flat =/= thin.

Given their choice of personallized license plate, I'm guessing that's not their first time getting rear-ended.

Yup. Sold many. They were a PITA. Everything about them was a PITA. A delivery crew got one stuck in a spiral staircase in a multimillion dollar house. They fucked up the glazed walls, bannister, and the stairs themselves.

I remember struggling to get the box inside. Got it in the living room, put of the box, and found put there were wheels on the bottom. I've done dumber things, but not many, and not by much.

Toyota’s of the early and mid 2000’s were(and still are) impossible to kill.  The only reason they are taken off the road is the owners just get tired of them, or the third generation wrecks them, having survived the second generation learning to drive on them.

A roommate back in the 1980s bought a used front projection flat screen. It took three of us to get it into the house. Once inside, we found the two clips used to separate it into easily handled pieces.

The screen was probably 5 or 6 feet on diagonal
