Flutterby™! : nihilist resume

In light of the PhD discussion with Eric, this passage from McSweeney's Internet Tendency: Nihilist Job Resume caught my eye:

Bachelor of "Science" in Computer Applications, University of Washington

B.S., all right. It tickles me greatly that vapid, hornswoggled employers place so much emphasis on scholastic aptitude and higher education, as if knowing the Pythagorean theorem could shield me from the stygian pointlessness of mortality or the lurid abyss of imminent nonexistence. Of course, I use the word "tickles" figuratively, since I feel absolutely nothing.

The whole thing is funny. (Hat tip to Jeff Pidgeon for pointing it out)
