More fun than killing lvl 1 rats in a sewer

Nerdiness is a hell of a drug . Once you try one science fiction movie and like it, it's impossible to stop. One of your friends suggests you give Star Wars a try, and a week later, you are binge-watching Battlestar Galactica and buying Star Trek Funko Pops. You read one chapter of Lord of the Rings, and you suddenly find yourself knee-deep in a Dungeons and Dragons session with a bunch of sweaty, role-playing nerds . Also, your very definition of what is cool changes completely. You used to th…

One meme to rule them all, One meme to find them, One meme to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them

Hey, protagonists. What’s your perfect filler day? Maybe it’s just getting all of your errands done: finally taking a crack at that mountain of laundry that’s been piling up on the designated chair, restocking groceries for the coming week, and getting those checks in the bank so you can finally use your debit card to check out your Amazon cart. Maybe your perfect filler is getting your driver’s license with Goku and Piccolo , daydreaming and scheming to uncover your sensei’s partially masked f…

I solemnly swear that I am up to no good

PTO request approved

OK, I’ve got to admit, some of these pictures really got me . It's so strange to think about how much time I spent as a kid playing or interacting with so many things in this listicle, yet I had completely forgotten about them. That frozen orange concentrate my mom used to pull out of the freezer on hot summer days and then add some cold water from the fridge (along with a ton of ice cubes) - that juice used to make me so happy so many times. How could I forget about it? And what about that toy…

Have you ever worked on something for years? I mean really poured your heart and soul into it, giving it all you've got. I can tell you that, personally, I have been working on a book for the past several years and I am nearly finished. But now I am absolutely terrified of actually showing it to anyone because after putting so much work into it, I don't think I could handle any kind of rejection. It would be devastating! Well, think about J.K. Rowling , who worked on the first book for over fiv…

You don't stop playing because you get old, You get old because you stop playing!

Being kind of an old geezer, I grew up on the original trilogy. I saw " Return of the Jedi " in the cinema when I was 7 and was completely hooked ever since. I made my parents buy the first two movies on VHS (which I wore out from watching on repeat). I also had the illustrated books, the toys, the soundtrack on vinyl, and whatever else Star Wars I could get my hands on. So when the prequels arrived, I was already too old to enjoy them for what they are—fantasy movies for kids, just like the or…

Shikamaru is just as bored in this world.

I would ask Shenron for a fraction of this talent.

Little Shop of Horrors is one of my favorite films of all time; I find it absolutely brilliant. I love the story, the songs, the special effects, but above all, the performances by the entire cast. Rick Moranis was born to play the part of Seymour Krelborn; he brings something to this role that no other actor could. He is so lovable from the very first second you see him on screen, and you keep loving him while he does more and more questionable acts , just to keep his boss happy, and by associ…

Memes that are scientifically proven to induce giggles

It's normal to be weird

I swear, all I did was try out a new spell my friend Dave told me about—the one that is supposed to summon a lesser demon to come and do all your chores for you. And I don't know if I recited the incantation wrong, or if I added the wrong ingredient to the pot (I used the eye of an action figure of Newt from Aliens because I couldn't find an actual newt). Anyway, this portal opened up, but instead of a small, friendly demon, all these memes started pouring out, and they seem to be coming from e…
