I'm a scholar and I consume slop

Slop was the subject of my studies!

Imagine going back in time 50 years to see some Civil War researcher and telling them, "oh yeah read your book in college, excellent slop!"

Fellow slop-consuming scholar chiming in.

I study slop in the very literal sense, because I'm a food scholar lol.

Ah, I did my graduate work on superheros and the evolution of heroic figures in popular culture
