Inconsistent Examples

[Ceicei]

I had an interesting conversation with a friend discussing about "inconsistent examples" of people in certain occupations. I'll toss out a few and you can add to the list. The underlined is the occupation.

Doctors who smoke

Divorced marriage counselors

Child Psychologists with no children of their own

Traffic Safety Officers getting reckless driving tickets

Priests who are sex therapists

Dentists with bad teeth

 

[exile]

Professors of English who teach composition courses aimed at training undergraduates to write clearly and precisely, and to provide hard evidence for the points they raise, but who publish research (or at least submit research to major journals) in an impenetrable, jargon-laden style of writing that makes classical Freudian psychiatric doctrine seem totally lucid and rigorously scientific by comparison, and who cannot possibly answer the simple question aimed at their claims: `if this were wrong, how would we be able to tell??'
