A quick bit of Grad Humor

[confessionalbox]

Hello all.. I just have one fairly quick one for now, the first single (lyrics only!) from the forthcoming album Straight out of Grad School. It is a little ditty that fans of Old School Punk and statistics may enjoy. But before I get to that, I have a question and request. I am considering creating a non LJ blog to house my grad humor stuff. Anyone care to recommend a good (free) system. I am thinking non LJ to hopefully draw a bigger, non LJ only audience. Now for the request. Would those of you who contributed to The graduate Seminar Drinking Game (beta V1.0) please contact me with how you would like to be credited (nom de plume) for version 2.0? My email is on my info page.

now on to the ostensibly funny



Regression (Apologies to Black Flag- Sung to tune of Depression by Black Flag from the Album Damaged)

Right here all by myself
I don’t wanna do the stat, let someone else
Situation is confusing me
Can’t combat the data’s heteroscedasticity

Chorus:

Regression’s got a hold of me
Regression I got a break free
Regression’s got a hold of me
Regression’s Gonna kill me

I ain’t got no method to call my own
I just run STATA all night on my own
There’s no journals that wanna publish me
I’m gonna lose all my funding

Chorus

Every day I dream of getting away
Now I gotta go TA
Adviser says my work has to be better
All I know is it F*&#ing better

Repeat chorus X2
