Honorary Black Belt?

In this article from moultrieobserver.com columnist Dwain Walden has a good point or two about flaunting your honorary black belt in karate.

He writes: "On a quiz program the other night, a contestant told the host that he held an honorary black belt in karate. My immediate conclusion was, I would rather have a real tire tool than an honorary black belt in karate."

My thought is exactly the same - why would anyone mention a good-for-nothing black belt like this? Sure it could be something to joke about amongst friends - but apart from that...

Me, I would rather be a certified idiot (which many will swear I am already) than an honorary anything, any day.
