The purpose of today's article is to display to all of you unbelievers, the
universal powers of the nerd. The thing the average person does not quite
realize is that most of those functioning normally in today's society have
served at one point in their lives as nerds. Take Bill Clinton, one day he
went an entire second grade day with broccoli stuck in his teeth from
breakfast. Bill Gates was once a very small unimportant nerd. Martha
Stewart read cookbooks through her lonely childhood. Those who never
experienced this real life training have since gone on to live much less
civilized lives. Most of our sports stars never lived as nerds which is
why they are all so stupid. The same goes to our actors that are consistently
caught doing less than acceptable behaviors in public places. Most nerds
avoid such conflicts because of the great trials and afflictions they went
through during their schooling years. But why is one person classified as
a social outcast when another is considered popular even though many people
confess behind his back that they cannot stand him. What defines this
social dilemna that occurs when a child is first made fun of by a cruel
classmate. Suppose the tides were turned. Suppose all those great atheletes
were despised by girls and discouraged from participation. These
people will have their dues though. Most cannot function in normal society
because they never really learned that they are not the best, that the world
does not revolve around them. Such is the case with Kamas, the city I have
lived in for the past 9 years. Because the ratio of nerds to non-nerds is
very low, most children growing up here believe that they are destined for
greatness, that society owes them a noble lifestyle and that they are
chosen to be rulers over this people. The fact is that most will never
leave this town because they made their own cousin pregnant forcing
matrimony. The term used here by the nerdfolk (harsh but real) is Golden
Butt. Simply put, these people believe that they have butts made of pure
gold. Ugly women walk with their noses in the air with the false pretense
that every guy on the street wants them. And many of the guys on the
street actually want them because they believe the girls butt is gold also.
The problem lies in the fact that the guys are stupid and blind, and the
girls are totally ugly. Granted, those who choose not to believe in the
value of their butt are okay and some girls are actually pretty here, but
for the most part, no one here seems to grasp this concept. So here is a
toast to my community, the one they call Kamas. The only thing that
works in my favor coming from this community is the fact that I have spent
my time as a nerd. And I am proud of it. I am eternally grateful for the
many days I came home believing I could never compare to the greatness of
my peers. I thank them again and again for inspiring me to work hard
just to make them look bad. And most of all, I am very glad that my
butt is not made of gold. That would be way too much of a weight to carry
around. Plus it would force my nose up and I would become blind.
