Oh hi, clubbers. You may have heard of a little movie from 2003 called The Room. If you haven’t, that’s okay, heaps of people don’t know it. It’s not something I would recommend for everyone. It was meant to be a very serious romantic drama, but its terrible acting, storyline and dialogue have made it an unintentionally hilarious piece of shit that has a huge cult following.
The Big Bang Theory has to be just about the most popular sitcom on TV at the moment, if not the most popular TV show in general, with 20 million viewers who tuned in to see the current season’s opening episode. Who’d thought that the simple premise of a hot blonde having to deal with four nerds’ social awkwardness could churn out season after season and get people laughing hysterically?
No, I’m not talking about drinking yourselves silly in the office you work in (instant dismissal right there!), I’m talking about the excellent television series The Office (American version). Whether you find the American or British to be superior is a big debate amongst hardcore fans that I won’t even get into (I think the fact I’m talking about the American version sums up the version I like more; “USA! USA!”).
All you need to play King of Beers is a circle of friends, booze, a playing card deck minus the Jokers (and instruction cards, come on people) and some kind of jug-like liquids receptacle.
Though the computer game phenomenon that is World Of Warcraft has certainly taken over the nerd realm as their favourite pastime, the previous generation of geeks used to play the role playing fantasy game Dungeons and Dragons. They’d do this while the so-called “cool people” who’d mock them would go to bars to get wasted.
