FYI, I also read Blob as Bob often so I don't think that activity suggests any irregularity. Alternatively, I share said irregularity. Bob is not my actual name, by the way. But that's not surprising, I'm sure, given that this is a secret blog.
As for fields being similar, I had a good friend in grad school who was in a field that couldn't have been less like my own. Nonetheless, we shared lots of stories about our experiences and it was unbelievable how many things overlapped. So yes, I think academia in general has a lot of similarities regardless of your particular field.
