You Know What, Rivers? You Actually DO Kind Of Look Like Buddy Holly. And Here I Was, Thinking You Just Pulled That Out Of Your Ass.

I'm turning into an American History nerd. Akatosh, save me.

I think the moment of truth came when I actually turned to someone I didn't know and corrected them on Paul Revere's famous words to the patriot rebels. It went something like this:

Person: [Some shit I wasn't listening to]... The British are coming! [snortgigglegigglesnort]

Me: [Doing a complete one eighty where I stood] You know, that's not ACTUALLY what he said. Technically, he was British, too, so he wouldn't have SAID "The British are coming!". That would have been redundant. What he really said was, "The Regulars are coming out!", because that's what the patriots called the loyalists back then.

Person: ...

And then, that person turned around and walked away from me. Out the door, into the parking lot. Oh yeah, did I mention that this whole incident occurred in a movie theater? Well, I just did. I found that I was asking myself a lot of questions as I made my way back to my car, the three most prevalent being, "What the fuck did I just do?", "Why the fuck did I just do that?", and "Why the hell does Eragon get all the credit for slaying Durza?".

On a side note, does anyone else think that "The Regulars are coming out!" is hilariously hysterical? No? Just me? Alright then...

For those of you reading this right now thinking, "You know, this blog is pretty funny, but it's just not nerdy enough for my tastes", I've got a treat for you.

I. Am. Sheogorath.

Yeah, you heard me right. I beat Shivering Isles. No big. No, really, it's no big. Jyggalag was ridiculously easy to beat. Literally, I hit him with Shadowrend twice, and he died. It was kind of disappointing, to tell the truth. However, any disappointment I felt at my complete victory over the daedric Lord of Order was snuffed out when I learned I would be able to manipulate the weather at will. I'm rather easily amused, if you hadn't already noticed. Between that and my staff that causes everything within a 75 foot radius to freeze in place, I'll probably have no reason to leave my living room for the next 3 months. Plus, I haven't played Knights of the Nine yet. So, 4 months.

I can just imagine the kind of shit I'm going to get for this. I should probably take preemptive strike.

Hey, Katie! Your prom date is shorter than you!

That should be enough to get her going.
