Hump Day Nerdgasm: Geekery Edition

I frequently venture from Nerdtown to Geekdom (the path between them is paved with Skittles), and I have something to show you that falls in Geek Jurisdiction. Come . . . let us sally forth together!


I don't consider myself a gamer (of the video or table-top variety), but I pretty much approve of everything Wil Wheaton and Felicia Day do. I would follow them into the bowels of Mordor. I would carry their cloaks while they captured a rogue Qunari mage. I would completely humiliate myself on my own blog.

So that's how I ended up a frequent visitor of Geek & Sundry. And the website has a new feature called "Written by a Kid" that is . . . just delightful. It's KIND of like Drunk History, except instead of grad students recounting history stories under the influence of LOTS of alcohol, it's adorable children telling made-up stories under the influence of their crazy imaginations. And then famous people act them out.

There's only one video up so far, but it features Joss Whedon battling a one-eyed monster while shimmying around in a permanent squat. And I brought it here for you. Because I love you THAT much.



UPDATE: A second episode of "Written by a Kid" just went up! It has a goth stepdad. Of course it does.
