Finish This Sentence: I'm so nerdy that . . .

Mundane Pointless Stuff I Must Share (MPSIMS)
#1

It’s a fight to the finish! Prove you are the nerdiest among us by the completing of this simple phrase:

I’m so nerdy that. . .
(Match Game peanut gallery chorus: how nerdy are you?)

Rules:

  1. It must be a true statement.
  2. It must be in the spirit of the thing, and not a sarcastic attempt to prove you ARE NOT nerdy.
  3. If such sarcastic attempts are made, you will immediately have Ted McGinley added to the cast of your life, assuring that you will be cancelled by the network.

Let the games begin!

Once I was hanging out with some girly friends, helping them hook a new TV up to cable. They realized that they needed an antenna to coax adapator…or, I should say THEY realized they needed something that would allow the round cable with the thingie in the middle to connect to the 2 screws on the TV

I said " Let me check my purse" They all seemed to think this was a fine little joke and laughed, until I dug around in my purse and pulled out the exact part they needed. I did not remember how or why the part was in my purse in the first place.

Let me guess, the bag has a small label that reads “Made in Izbia” seems to have an infinite capacity for storing items, and you have no way of getting rid of it, it always comes back to you, it was a gift from your Aunt…
