This is a test

80% Geek

Created by OnePlusYou




Honestly, I would have thought I would score a little lower. I'm geeky, sure. But there are many, many, many people out there who out-geek me.

Starbucks and hypocrisy are like chocolate and peanut butter.

I used to laugh and mock and berate and generally verbally abuse people who are patrons of Starbucks. I mean really, what kind of self-aggrandizing, arrogant, yuppie assholes need to spend 4 or 5 bucks for a cup of coffee when you can brew one for yourself at home for a quarter, right?

Well, that was before I discovered the Vanilla Bean Frappucino with two shots of Espresso added.

Apparently, I'm a self-aggrandizing, arrogant, yuppie asshole.

Although, to rationalize and justify this to myself, I have to concede that a Vanilla Bean Frappucino with two shots of Espresso added is NOT something I could duplicate at home. So its not like I'm some kind of corporate whore, right?

At least, that's what I tell myself in order to sleep at night.

My wife is odd.

She freely admits it, so I don't feel guilty saying it.

She drew this for me.


Strange on so many levels. Not to mention the varying reactions of those that see it. Mostly, they see penises and freely flowing fluids (credits to M.M. for the alliteration.)

Rawr! (alternately: Funny things you say to gay men.)

So..I work with a gentleman who is very cool, and very gay. He's also a World of Warcraft playing nerd.

So, we were standing around the water cooler (drinking fountain) one day, and he brings up one of the newest features in the latest Expansion Pack of World of Warcraft.

"So, did I tell you about the Bear Mount?"

I quickly replied "no, is that a new gay bar?"

He looked at me blankly for a moment, finally got it, and proceeded to almost asphyxiate from laughing too hard.
