Failblogging

So, it's time for another one of my spectacular blog posts!! Not really, but onward anyway!

Okay, so you might be wondering what this post is even about. Well, it's going to be about an assortment of things, so let's dive right in and find out!

Part 1: The Internet
Okay, so you're on The Internet right now. Most people use The Internet for a variety of things such as viewing Email, chatting, going on social networks, playing games, etc... But, if you are going to truly embrace The Internet, you need to do a few things. First, know the rules of The Internet. If you are not familiar with the rules, click here IMMEDIATELY!! Second, check some of the entertaining sites on The Internet regularly. I'd recommend going to http://cheezburger.com/ and finding the sites with the humor you identify most with (there's a few links in the sidebar, but a LOT of the sites are left out). Also, be sure to check various webcomics, youtube, and other such media. You never know when the next big thing will appear on The Internet. Third, you need to understand 1337 s0 7h@7 u c@n pwn |\|008s. Finally, check The Internet regularly, as it stops for no man!

Part 2: I Choose You, BLOG POST!!
Okay, so if you didn't get that reference, go educate yourself IMMEDIATELY (Or skip this part if you don't care about this topic)!! This game series has been present since the 90s, and has spawned one of the best and most successful game franchises of all time. Any gamer that has not played a game in this franchise (especially the originals) is not a gamer. I personally have played Red, Silver, Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Blue Rescue Team (not as good as the main series), and Diamond (As well as Yellow & Cyrstal on Visual Boy Advance). These games are just pure awesomeness. Sure, they've gotten carried away with the sheer number of them, and their names, but that doesn't detract from it at all. It still retains it's appeal, as shown by the fact that a remake of gold/silver called HeartGold/SoulSilver is coming out (basically combines Kanto/Johto/Honen regions, so there are 9 STARTERS!! Plus, like in yellow, YOU CAN CHOOSE ONE TO FOLLOW YOU AROUND!!! ) This post is simply a tribute to one of the greatest game series ever. May it live forever (the card game and TV shows can die for all I care).

Part 3: NERDS
I feel obligated to talk about a few Nerdy things. But first, some background: society (being the spawn of Satan that it is) has put a negative context on the term "nerd". Why is this? Nerds are clearly superior to non-nerds in almost every way that matters (A few exceptions, but the point stands). So, why is the term negative? And what can you do to help solve this? Well, first of all, you need to prove that you are a nerd, and you can do that by answering the questions below!

1. Do you find yourself knowing unusually high amounts of knowledge in certain academic areas?
2. Do you tend to dislike the "preps"/"jocks"/"cool kids" ?
3. Do you think about academic subjects outside of school/work?
4. Do you talk about academic subjects with your friends outside of school/work?
5. Do/did you take advanced level courses in school?

Academic in this sense means any real valuable courses that a school would offer (includes tech, business, etc...) And, when I say say academic subjects, I mean more than 1 (clarification for non-nerds).

If you said yes to at least 4 of the questions, you are most likely a nerd. So now that we have this established, how can you contribute to the world of nerds? (aka the world) First, whenever someone calls you a nerd, thank them, and take it as a compliment. So many people will be confused by this, which leaves them vulnerable to your nerdy mind tricks (use your knowledge to outsmart them). Also, begin plotting with your friends to do something (ANYTHING). Plotting is a good mental exercise to stimulate creative thinking, and exchange of nerdy ideas. There are other things, but I will save that for another post. (Also, be sure to look HERE for information on how to do nerd bombs).


This may be the longest post on the blog (or one of the longest.) So, farewell for now!!
