I can't even begin to fathom ... well, I'll have a go. I suppose you'd have to be Spielren since she is the promiscuous scarlet woman, I'd be Jung because I can't envisage a work based scenario in which I didn't get my knob wet on a regular basis.

Which leaves Mary as Freud

No, obviously Mary is Spielrein because she is the neurotic in need of treatment, you are Jung with your fanciful yet well-meaning intent bordering on sexual exploitation, and I am the stubborn insane old man.

Works for me

You guys quickly switch to love fest when someone feigns humility. You do know she's super excited about her bronze and is eagerly waiting for opportunities to come up in every day conversation.

OK, switching to serious now, any particular sections you had your ink in? Just so, you know, I can contribute some seriously undesirable editorial criticism. I'll keep it to myself, I promise.

I know I'm not a congratulatory person, but I know how it feels to see the first abstract officially published and adorned with your name, I empathize with your general enthusiasm/joy/pride.

I'm pleased but I'm aware that in the grand scheme of things it's not all that significant outside of my own little bubble. I also know that a close working relationship with the people in question has a lot to do with it. I'm a technician: a good one, but rarely required to inject my intellectual expertise to the process. This lab seem to want to draw upon it. I cleared up a few of their questions, came in early, stayed late a bit, suggested some ways to do things, that sort of thing. I didn't write any of the paper, I just read it over before it was sent off.

That sums up my first publication as well, the one working on the project, who I was assisting, wrote it, then I rewrote it. He was Chinese, but we ended up making a thing out of it with explaining all the nuances of English language. 'Twas fun, I remember explaining to him what eating out was

We uses to play psychoanalysts as kids and everyone always argued over who gets to be Jung, that being said, I'm Jung.

You're outvoted, two people already said I'm Jung.
Deal with it, Spielrein.

You don't have the proper Asian quality to play Jung.

[Barbarossa]

Don't laugh, it's only a little thing but I don't have a doctorate and don't plan on getting one, so I wasn't expecting it.

So, yay me!

Fantastic! I know how you feel. I felt the same when I first got a letter printed in Smash Hits!

You can't disqualify me just because I have a fairly large cawk, racist.
