Trying to call yourself "Dr." when you don't have a real PhD is the worst kind of credentialism.

I call my friends with real PhD's by their first names and they're fine with that.

Would you seriously consider anything else? If a friend of mine with a PhD told me to adress him as "Doctor" I would assume he was joking...
