Do you like nerds?
I do.
In honor of A Great Big Nerd's*** nerdy blog (recently discovered, man, give a girl some notice!), here are the lyrics to "Golf Shirt" by the terribly underrated Nerfherder (<- in and of itself a nerd-reference).
I'm not the one you dream about
And I'm not the one you can't live without
I'm not the one who you wanna see
I'm not the one who you want to be seen with
And when you're tired of all the jerks
And you're tired of all the work
And you're tired of being hurt
You will long for the comfort of my golf shirt
I'm not the one who was an old time punk rocker
I was listening to Rush and trying to feather my hair back
When all that stuff went down
I'm not the one who was in a high school hardcore band
I sat in my room scoring with Ms. Pac-Man
And when you're tired of all the jerks
And you're tired of all the work
And you're tired of being hurt
You will long for the comfort of my golf shirt
No tats, no piercings, no hats, no grunge beard baby, yeah!
***In fact, he's just an actual-sized nerd. This is called "hyperbole," which you may pronounce like "Hyper Bowl," but only if you do so in a fake Cosell voice, like the Japanese racer guy in "Better Off Dead."

A. You were totally in Gay Paree when I joined the ranks of idjits telling the masses on the internets about the color of their bowel movements and such on a day-to-day basis (a milk-chocolatey brown, by the way).
B. If I just told you, it would have ruined the joy of discovery, wouldn't it?
C. I suppose that if you really want to get into the semantics of it, I'm actually a somewhat smaller nerd than many, as I don't have a diet consisting mostly of Doritos and Mountain Dew...

That's true - to be fair, folks, he's quite a svelte nerd.
sveltenerd.blogspot.com ... spin-off?

He's my very favoritest great big nerd, but I think I'm biased because he makes me dinner almost every night and gives me kisses on my forehead.
