So I made the Nerdie Finals – now what?
Where are my high school teachers now? My Grade 11 report card spelled EGG using the first three symbols (English, Afrikaans and Maths). My teachers continued to remind me what a hopeless case I was, and how difficult it would be for them to imagine me becoming much! Take that.
And now today, I hear I’ve made the Nerdie Finals. I’m almost gauranteed not to win this, but any of my former teachers following me, I did amount to something, I made the Top 10 2010 Nerdie Finals. Yeah!!
To be honest I still don’t know exactly what it is, it looks like a little bit of fun to be had, but I’m feeling a little insecure around the exact details. Maybe that makes the geek others saw in me, to nominate me in he first place.
Come bid to your hearts content, on anything really. There are loads of geeks out there – get creative people. I don’t care what you bid on, as long as the aim is to raise money for Wet Nose Foundation, this years Nerdies Charity.
To give you an idea of how it worked last year, in a nutshell: it’s whatever you make it out to be. Last year we bet on Mike Stopforth’s fuzz [he was supposed to shave his head]. We bid on ByronRodes psychodelic pants. We bid on Snowgoose’s Twitter panties. We got some people to do some crazy stuff and take photos as proof. We had people challenging each other for donations to the charity. We promised to do weird & wonderful things all in the name of donations.
I did get told by a former Top Ten-er from last year, that boasting about being in a Geek competition is a little like being proud of syphilis. He should know, rumor has it, that he’s done both : )
So it’s down to a vote. A Geek to Geek friends showdown. I’m currently 8th. About 80 votes behind the leader. I have 4 votes as I write this. However, if you’d like to see me keep this 8th place (8th is a great place to finish – people always remember the winner and the loser), then a vote here and there couldn’t hurt much. So click right over……… HERE and keep me floating above 10 : )
