Evaluating my Dork Status

topic posted Fri, March 17, 2006 - 11:33 AM by  Eden
Gosh, I don't know if I can explain my dorkiness all on one page, but look, i just said "gosh". Here's a go. I'm a dork because:

I lose my balance for no reason, especially while standing still
I bump into things
My hair is always a distraction to me, especially on windy days
I have very strong fantasies about Captain Jack Sparrow, Legolas the Elf and Maximus (not the actors, just the characters :D)
I LOVE video games and immerse myself in them (to the point of talking aloud as the character LOL)
I have made myself, my boyfriend, our future children and grandchildren on the Sims 2
I regularly compare the Sims 2 to real life (LOL)
I LOVE fantasy, especially LOTR and I genuinely want to be an elf and live in their world
Pretty and/or shiny thing make me all la-la
Nice cars and clothing turn me on
I'm a math retard (god forbid I ever work a cash register)
Sometimes I say things and even I go, god that was dorky!
I talk to my cats and they talk back to me in kitty language
I get bored in the shower
I argue with myself, aloud
Bright colors and sunshine make me giddy
I laugh right after sex
"Babe: Pig in the City" and "Gladiator" make me cry every time

Well, the list could go on all day, but I think I've made my point asto why i'm a dork, if not crazy LOL. ;P

    Here's why I am a dork:

    - I snort when I laugh
    - When I tell jokes, it often happens that I'm the only one who's laughing
    - Love video games, especially Sim City and Civilization
    - Louse sense of balance and tendency to bump into things
    - Always have a hi tech calculator with me even though I almost never need it
    - I almost always wear a t-shirt. Last year, I wore a button-down long sleeved shirt exactly once.
    - I have created a fictional world and hope to turn it into an RPG one day
    - The idea of getting beaten up by Angelina Jolie turns me on
    - I have a hamster named Frodo
    - I often compare myself to some characters of the webcomic 'Megatokyo'
    - If I would win the lottery, the first thing I would do is renting a truck, going to the largest comic book and collectible store I know and buy everything
    - I don't have a girlfriend and more or less don't care about it

      *** - When I tell jokes, it often happens that I'm the only one who's laughing ***

      Dude you rock! I regularly go into hysterics over my own cleverness. I literally was bent over laughing and gasping on Sunday at my own FANTASTIC joke, I had the best timing and it was just so clever...I can't even remember it now DAMMIT! I'm a knee slapper too, that's pretty dorky.

      *** - The idea of getting beaten up by Angelina Jolie turns me on ***

      Me too! If you haven't seen Mr & Mrs. Smith, you MUST see that scene where they fight......it's like porn for me ;P

    hey...I only watch Zoom, Fairly Odd Parents, Spongebob, Arthur, and Postcards From Buster. The only movie I've seen at a theater in four years is the new Harry Potter. I go to the library to get books. I have a huge geological map of New Jersey in my livingroom (and what's really weird is that it looks like a guy with a hat on...West Portal is his eye...everyone says so). I keep a roll of toilet tissue on my desk at school for noseblowing. I say "jeepers"...I told my supervisor that *he* was disrespecting me...not the other way around. I went to a metal concert last month...my student set up a myspace account for me because he said only dorks use tribe...

    Courtesy of Dictionary.com:

    2 entries found for dork.

    dork ( P ) Pronunciation Key (dôrk)

    1.) n. Slang. A stupid, inept, or foolish person
    2.) Vulgar Slang. The penis.

    I'm of the opinion that most of us are represented by definition number one, at least I know that I am.

    As for definition number two; I have one, and have been referred to as one many times.

    Dorkiness starts within and I think "feeling" like a dork should qualify anyone.

    :P

    I have the Babe soundtrack, just for the mice parts
    I generally crack myself up, but nobody else
    I have painful crushes on everybody
    freakishly shy
    The only book I've read more than once is The Dimond Age a Young Ladies Illustrated Primer, the first time I didn't quite get Turring Logic, so I studied up on it and read again, I've read it 3 more times since - I'll be in the shower thinking a year later... "how'd she do that?" and have to read it again. The last time I read it was to determine that it was indeed a poorly finished book.
    I spend more on books than groceries
    I'd rather hand code a document exactly the way I want it than use Word
    I talk to my cat all the time
    I enjoy joiking
    talk to myself
    catch myself making farty noises with my mouth all the time
    shiney, oooohhhhh aaaaahhhh
    totally into the powerpuff girls, still

    I am this kind of dork...

    It took me until just a couple years ago to realize...
    no, that's not true, I didnt realize, I was informed....
    that the Rolling Stones song that I thought went something like
    "Stop me up (wooh)
    Stop me up by Devil's Star
    Devil's Star, Devil's, Devil's," etc.

    is actually a song called:

    "Start me Up" :P

    I even cry when the guy wins the car on The Wheel of Fortune.
    When I do dorky things, I hold my hand up to my forehead in the ASL sign for D, only I use the wrong hand, so it looks like a B instead.
    I can't read anything without searching for typos.
    I want a T-shirt that reads, "I eat meat." on the front, and "Thank you for asking." on the back.
    I think this is funny.
    My sweetie and I are on our fourth Twin Peaks marathon in a year, and I laugh every time I hear Gordon Cole say he is going down to Olympia on a real hush-hush operation. (David Lynch plays Gordon Cole, the regional director of the FBI, who has a hearing aid and who is incapable of controlling the volume of his voice.)

      Speaking of the I eat meat t-shirt:
      I saw a girl in the city with a great tshirt. It went something like:
      I didn't claw my way to the top of the food chain to eat vegetables. I thought it was really funny and being the dork I am started cracking up. I got a couple looks from me walking past but I'm kind of use to that.

        dork qualifiers:
        - I talk about worms, recently, a lot
        - I still ride my bike after driving a car all these years
        - I snort while laughing
        - I constantly run into door jambs- can't just walk through the entire door space- I have to cut corners to get through it faster
        - I say please and thank you to cashiers and waitstaff all the time
        - I go to burning man and avoid wearing costumes
        - I go to burning man and try not to dance
        - I so look forward to curling up with my cat at night- he's the best lay I've had in a while........
        - I routinely talk people out of buying things while at work. "No- you shouldn't buy 14 of these cranks- just take the 2 you need. Who cares if they are 'on sale'?"
        - I can make a project out of the simplest sandwich making endeavour
        - I prefer the British spelling of certain words: Catalogue i/o catalog, endeavour i/o endeavor, etc.
        - Tribing at 10 pm on a tuesday night........

    Why I'm a dork:

    -I'd rather re-read Lost Souls by Poppy Z Brite than go outside and chuck water baloons at the nieghbor kids.
    -I can accurately recite the Doom Song
    -A spoonful of peanutbutter is considered a midnight snack
    -The word poop makes me laugh
    -Adult Swim has priority over bed

    There's a ton more but they've slipped my mind right now.

      How I know I belong here:

      -I stumbled into the "sexy dork" tribe exactly 7 minutes ago and thought "I belong here"
      -I am a fairly decent bellydancer yet I routinely run into walls,doorjams & all other forms of sharp edges/surfaces (desks,chairs, it never ends!) *seems common here!!!**
      -Cuss words from BSG (Battlestar Galactica) have become common in my vocabulary
      -I just referenced Battlestar Galactica by it's acronym (Frack! how dorky!)
      -I beg my co-workers to let me make new spreadsheets to organize the most minor tasks
      -My idea of an exciting time is shopping for new office supplies... ahh, the joy!

      I 'm serious, I really get excited by spreadsheets & office supplies.. I belong here, right?!?
