Save the Day, the Nerdette Way!!! XD

A revelation struck me yesterday, and I will now share with you the most brilliant piece(s) of advice you shall ever encounter. EVER.

Here's what's going down ^_^:

The world needs a bit of helpful reform from every single nerdette out there (population 2, as far as I know) and I'm going to post a bunch of Nerdette-inspired Fighting Against the Apocalypse Tips (FATAT) in succession on the blog. Starting with this one here:

FATAT (heh, heh) Numero UNO

Brush your teeth while taking a shower. It saves time when getting ready in the morning and saves water. Yes, I'm telling you to legitimately take the toothbrush and toothpaste with you into the shower and brush while you wait for your conditioner to set or something. I tried it yesterday, in fact. Please comment on this tip, whether you think it's the most retarded thing you've ever heard or if you think it's a stroke of pure genius.


In other fabulous news...

I've come up with a list of words (in the "English language") that are so inaccurrately used, I cry myself to sleep at night putting up with this injustice. Below is a mini-dictionary of Ze Awesome Nerdette definitions for the following words:

Creeper (noun). The life of the party. (i.e. The most unusual and slightly disturbing person you know that makes your every social gathering that much more "interesting.")

Nerdette (noun). A blatant academic overachiever exerting awesomeness in everything they do and say. Female in question exhibits nerdy behaviors such as the ability to bother you with a bunch of pointless facts or come up with the best funny nerd insults. For a synonym for this word used in a more general sense, see John and Hank Green's nerdfighter(s)

Legit (adj). A cliche, misused abbreviation for legitimate. You can just use the word seriously instead, honestly. (e.g. O rly? Yeah, like, legit!! OR O rly? Yeah, srsly!!) Seriously is just seriously a cooler sounding response and this cliche will have me using legitimately instead of legit for the rest of my life, seriously.

Fail (interjection). A term expresseing that one has just made a complete idiot of themselves in attempting to be as awesome as nerfighters and/or nerdettes. The word is often used discouragingly and that's probably why my school has recently put up motivational quotes all over the walls, 3 of them containing some form of the word fail. (e.g. Our Greatest Glory is Not in Never Failing, But In Picking Ourselves Up Afterward... or something like that [That's my theory, anyway])


As a final comment, I do hereby declare this post one of the longest I've ever written (yeah, I spent 3 days in my computer class typing this [further evidence of my nerd-ocity and non-exsistent life])!!!


WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And I saw someone wearing a fedora 3 days in a row and I'm wondering if the fedora fad Blinda and I started ^_^ is finally catching on... cuz everyone knows that the fedora hat is the hottest item in today's Nerd Fashion. Available for girls or guys (the person wearing the fedora was actually a guy... hmmm). More nerd and non-nerd related posts to come!!!!!!!!!!!

Nerdette Ari's Current Nerdy OBSESSIONS

Here's an update on the latest in nerdy obsessions--in list form!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

• Vlogbrothers Youtube Channel
  These hilarious and multi-talented brothers founded the Nerdfighters and the pwnage of the "In Your Pants" book title suffix joke while communicating long distance through uploading videos!!! Click here for the link to the channel!


• Chess
  A game of supreme logic and mental skill, chess is infamous for being the signature game for nerds. My favorite part is the pretty black and white squares. :D There's no greater pleasure than pwning all of you puny-minded friends in chess, so start building your sick chess skillz now, fellow nerds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *Available as computer chess or the actual chess board and pieces*


• Nerdy Music
  Surprisingly, there are tons of songs out there geared towards the nerd/nerdette community, and here are some of my recommendations: They Might Be Giants is a band with informative lyrics and fantastic melodies including my faves--"Doctor Worm," "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)," and "Why Does the Sun Shine?" The song "The Geek in the Pink" by Jason Mraz is irresistibly catchy with a chic nerdy vibe in there. "White and Nerdy" by Weird Al is a well-known witty parody about the plight of white nerds (not intended to offend). Look these all up on Youtube, homeskillets!!!

Attempt to Slay Boredom #1: Yo Mama Jokes!!!

Well, hello.

Guten tag.

Bongiorno.

Bonjour.

Hola.

Konichiwa.

I know you just got bored-er after reading this, but now I'll get to the point. In this post, I will list an assortment of the best Yo Mama jokes I've heard over the span of my obviously pointless life. These are purely for entertainment's sake and are not intended to offend anyone in any way (except for Amanda, of course). XD Let it begin:

• Yo mama is so fat, when she went to the aquarium the whales started singing, "We are family!"
  
• Yo mama is so stupid, she got hit by a parked car.
  
• Yo mama is so fat, when she sat on a rainbow, Skittles popped out.
  
• Yo mama is so ugly, she tried to enter an ugly contest but the staff said, "Sorry, no professionals!"
  
• Yo mama is so stupid, she sold her car for gas money.
  

Heh, heh. Hope you enjoyed. :D In other news, Llama is apparently the new leader of the free world, as decided by you people. Great job, guys. Btw, Amanda: I was just kidding about offending you with those yo mama jokes (I would never disrespect your mother) but I just HAD to pwn you after that email you sent me. Yeah, the one that blinded me with its glaringly obnoxious text. ;) That was one sick email, I do have to say. Kk everybody, don't forget to attack Blinda on the street for NEVER POSTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Amanda! :P

Here's one more pwnage before I sign off:
(To the Tune of Frere Jacques)

I like pudding

I like pudding

Yes I do

Yes I do

Amanda is a zombie

Amanda is a yeti

That smells like poo

That smells. P.U.!!!!!!!

Haha!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Beat that childish pwnage resembling that of a 6-year-old!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

~nERDETTE aRI (hEH, hEH) ^_^

Voila! The Result of my Boredom:

(To the Tune of the chorus of "Love Story" by Taylor Swift) *gag*

Blinda, you're psycho.
You know I can't leave you alone
with a knife; you can't use your cellular phone.
Closed padded walls, and you'll wear a white vest.
You're gonna be sedated; Crazy, just say "yes."

You may, of course, substitute anyone's name into the first part of the song (works best with 2 syllables). I heard this song 3 times yesterday and Issy and I were singing all the lyrics EVERY SINGLE TIME. So you can imagine how badly it got stuck in my head today. I had to slaughter the song somehow, and this is the answer to my prayers. ^_^ Enjoy!!! Btw, Issy told me that I got "scorned" yesterday, so if you ever feel like dissing someone really dorkily, tell them, "You just got scorn'd!!!!!" Don't forget to tell me how that works out! XD

~Nerdette Ari (the SCORN'D Master)

Welcome to this Week's Nerdtastic Book Discussion. I'm Your Host, Nerdette Jong-Jong. XD

So Blinda told me about this book last year I think, and I was in the middle of shirking my responsibilities when I saw the same book on Amazon.com's list of best teen books of 2008. The book is Paper Towns by John Green. Long story short, it's a book of FABULOCITY and I've read more than Blinda. Haha! :P Go here to check out mooooooooore!!! That's all I can say right now, folks... bell's gonna ring! TTFN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMF-ingG! Post Update:
Finished the book last night and the ending is the best &#$% thing!!!!!!!!!!!!! Of course, it's imperative that you read the preceeding content first, but the way it ends with the events and the language and the interwoven themes...! Schist, Bwinda--if you don't finish reading it, you're dead to me. ;) And yes, I'll give you the book back.

~Nerdette Ari ^_^

Oh, je ne sais pas...

So I THOUGHT I had a new favorite band, but it's a five/six way tie between...
Oasis, Coldplay, The Beatles, The Verve, and U2...

I should make a poll! But I can't choose, so I guess all of them are my favorite. Ariane's not helping with the process (tisk, tisk... not returning my texts!) But she does go to sleep unusually early.

I will have a new playlist soon! I found tons of coolio songs while being bored and procrastinating on the "important" stuff.
I can't wait until summer vacation! That will give me tons of time to make more posts and playlists and get in tounch with my inner self!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But now I have to get like ALL the albums from all of the bands so I can listen to them during my free time!!!! :)

Mais, I still have SCHOOL, and it sucks miserably. I'm slacking off more than usual on my homework and labs and stuff, et je ne sais pas qourquoi!! :'(
I'll survive... ♥
