Let's make fun of economists...

It may be fitting to start this blog focused on economics by making fun of economists... I have found the following article (published in an academic journal) really hilarious.

Life among the Econ

If you are a member of this tribe (as I am), you will recognize many features of our group. If you are a member of another academic tribe (such as our friends from IAST, the Institute for Advanced Studies in Toulouse, that groups sociologists, biologists, psychologists, political scientists, etc), well, you are now forewarned... And if you don't belong to such tribes, reading this article may change how you view scientists in general and economists in particular.
