nerdiest nerds from nerdsville 4 eva (aka 'the josh and i: 1 brain, 2 nerds')

(forward written by the josh)

the history of nerdsville is as a complex tapestry of nerdy events woven with nimble fingers in the darkest regions of the library or 'librario'. perhaps the most nerdy event to date can be traced back to the centre of the tapestry, near the embroidered tolkien tableaux. historians believe that they are better than us and also that this section of the tapestry depicts the mayor of nerdsville placing spock ears on his toaster to enhance the 'warp factor' of his cinnamon loaf. todman and cullings posit(in their 1987 text 're/imagining nerd: a short history of nerdsville')that this occurrence would one day be surpassed by one "so nerdy as to refigure the very boundaries of the nerd"(147).

while some people may have spent last night embroiled in lusty pleasures and sweet anticipation, i spent the evening watching series 4 of 'angel' and playing (non-lusty) games with the josh.

i have spoken before of the nerdy ways in which the josh and i spend our time together. namely this involves watching a tv series from beginning to end on dvd, pausing only for cups of tea, cigarette breaks, and the occasional pee mission.

we also like to play games of both the board and word variety. and we may or may not share a brain.

when the josh and i hang out together, we tend to get all postmoderny and talk about what nerds we are, referring to ourselves in the third person and fighting for the crown of supreme ruling nerd of nerdsville. a fight which i always win because well, lets face it, LA NADINE HAS A BLOG, and you can't get much nerdier than that. unless you speak clingon that is. or you pre-order harry potter books before they're released.

but last night we reached a new level of nerdiness. we were so nerdy that at one point in the evening the josh even shamefully uttered the words:

"i think that's the nerdiest thing i've ever said".

and believe me, there's some heavy competition for that title.

you see last night i introduced the josh to the game that is sweeping the nation. this game was invented by the king of krankiness and has since been elevated to its legendary status through the efforts of this hot vixen. i am talking of course about the game of murder. marry. fight. fuck.

you should try it. its good clean fun for the whole family. the dirty, violent, pervo family that is.

now there is nothing overtly nerdy about this game. not at all. in fact its a great way to spend an hour or so. especially when you play it when naked in a spa with 4 other hot, naked people (who you definitely DID NOT meet through your blog. no sirree bob).

however, should you choose to use as your pawns the characters from buffy, angel, beverly hills 90210, x-men, sesame st, and the muppets, well then you've stepped into nerdy waters. nerdy, kinky, quasi-pedophilic waters. and you'll find yourself saying things like this:

the josh: "so i guess i have to murder wolverine then. but i don't want too. he's soooooooooooo cool."

the josh: "i wouldn't fight brandon walsh cause he's the hero of the show and would therefore have to win. so i'd kill the pansy bastard."

me: "i'm fucking the count and marrying kermit and that's that. cope."

me: "of course i'd fuck willow, marry anya and murder buffy. der the josh."

so now its your turn. come join us in nerdsville. where the sun's always shining and the water's always warm (probably cause some geek peed in it).

below are four ugly, fiendish freaks of nature from the television.









so...murder? marry? fight? fuck?
