I once tried writing a song about Esperanto to the tune of "Desperado" but...

Other than the fact that Shatner did a movie in it, there's not much material there for satire.

Also: you have to love that there are characters who think Ray is the smart one.

I like how both Ray and Tina revere the MBA.  In their eyes it confers instant credibility.

It also suggests that Tina already had a BA.  Did Ray go to college?  Did Beef?

Not necessarily.  East Carolina, for instance, offers a five-year program that confers a BA and an MBA in one fell swoop.

I find it worrisome that JL has that information at the tip of her fingers.

That was my first thought when we moved here.  How many damn Carolinas do we need? 

It is...not as well respected as, for instance, UNC.  But it's still a good school, even if it has a reputation for being a party school.

Eh, UGA seems to get by despite having a slight reputation as a party school.

my history teacher in high school grew up in Athens, and told us that the joke in town when he was a kid was that... if you were careless and drove through Athens with your window open, they'd throw a degree in there.

Unless Tina is blessed with both, Ray's initial attraction to her is predicated on her assets in the posterior region (ha ha, get it? assets?). Now that Ray has turned breast aficionado, will he be able to maintain sufficient attraction? Does the MBA make up for it?

Well, sure, but they don't have banger moustaches or male pattern baldness either.
