Dr. Jerk is the bastard lovechild of Robert Heinlein and Ayn Rand. Bob and Ayn couldn't afford the scandal, so they paid George Carlin $240 to raise the boy as his own son. At age three, the boy ran away and secured a job in the circus by convincing them he was a midget. Circus life taught the boy how to survive in academia, and when he was 32, he was awarded a Ph.D in Financial Economics by angry professors at the University of Chicago as a sly protest against wokeness. Now Dr. Jerk's scholarly papers have been cited over a thousand times.
