The OP's delusion runs so deep. I honestly can't understand why reality won't take hold.

This reminds me of a guy I used to work with. It's so much worse in person.

He said he had a doctorate in philosophy from some university in some 3rd world country that I can't remember. But me and some other coworkers looked it up several times, but couldn't find the university online. He said he completed it in 7 years... online and some how managed to go straight from no degree to a doctorate, skipping an undergraduate and graduate degrees.

He also said he was the 9th highest rate master in karate, in the world, despite being over 400 pounds. We'd always see him doing crazy karate moves in the hallway. He was also a priest, despite never obtaining a degree in theology or even going to church!

There was so many crazy things that he said and did that he, apparently, made himself believe. Which is why he reminds me of the OP.
