When it comes to degrees, you probably know a whole lot about them already from just being alive...taking geometry classes in school, doing basic woodworking, [going into outer space](https://youtu.be/axHoy0hnQy8?t=1m2s), and/or having ever rotated an element in an image editor:

I didn’t realize you were such a Simpsons fan. I see the reference in the “What is a Kirupa?” page too.
PS: I like your signature.
PPS: Sorry for being so off-topic.

I thought most web people were self taught mostly, we need a degree ? 🤓

@TheCanadian - I’m a big fan of the earlier seasons (\< Season 13). I haven’t had a chance to watch the many years of episodes since then, but that is on my bucket list for one day. I also like Family Guy a whole lot as well, so I need to figure out a way to incorporate funny moments from that into everyday life and writing as well haha.
@prg9 - the more the better!

I’m the same. Newer seasons are unwatchable.
