I totally agree about the medieval melee by the way. I watched that movie role models the other day and remembered when we happened upon that melee tournament. What a day that was! I snorted derisively at "those nerds" battling with foam weapons. But in my heart of hearts I yearned to join them. To take up the foam sword, football helmet and cape in support of my king (only to later betray him so I could take the crown). "Pshh! Nerds!" I said, going to back to the much "cooler" frisbee golf game in progress. One last longing look back to the dwindling battle.
So am I saying their is an inherent nerdiness to the pop culture of the future? Being totally sincere means not caring what others think, which means being a nerd right?
