DSil, or Doctorate of Silliness, is an honorary degree only offered by a very small number of institutions, and then only to the tiny number of people who have provided extensive services to silliness. In the case of LazyScot, it was awarded by the University of Nether-Zees, which is based in the small hamlet of Snoozing-under-Duvet. His DSil was awarded for his discovery, categorisation, contraction, recovery from and steps towards a cure, of the infrunituphage(*). This exceptionally contagious phage comes in a number of closely related forms, all of which are particularly insidious and deadly. LazyScot successfully isolated and identified many variants phage, including the colloquially named forms "jobsworth", "health and safety", "professionalism" and "adulthood". His discovery and subsequent work was fundamental to the founding of the Infrunituphage Containment Executive (and its Weapons of Infrunituphage Negation and Elimination) of WHO, and he reportedly spends much time helping (himself to) ICE-WINE.
(*) the name is taken from the latin infrunitus."
