The content of the university lectures is hard.

Reading an English book and presenting an English presentation for an hour -- I think that kind of thing is the domain of "engineers who are loved by the English language.

But if I don't get the required credits, I won't be able to graduate.

However, what do I think about graduating? What about the job opportunities? Even though I'm about to retire?

"Oh, I'm losing this one if I think about it."

So I stop it.

Me: "You know, have you ever heard of The Tragedy of the Commons?"

Wife: "I don't know. I know about the Doha Tragedy, though."

Well, I thought, I guess so.

Incidentally, it was only recently that I learned the phrase "Doha Tragedy."
