Sad loser

The universe is weird, sometimes.

The happiest, most content people I've ever seen are also the hugest geeks.



Isn't that strange? The very words 'sad' and 'loser' seem almost synonymous. And yet when you see... oh, how I refer to them... GEEKS, they always seem to be having the best time. You know. Those nerds that hang out under the stairs, playing Yu-Gi-Oh. Every time you see those poor lost souls in town. (They're almost Goths, but... massive, massive nerds. I'm embarrassed for them.) You need to really watch their faces to see how happy they are. Maybe ignorance is bliss.


But it really hit home when Adam and I were editing our documentary today. It's on Steampunk, and I'm watching the faces of the head-butler and the Sky-ship Captain, and... these men were all nerds, once. And now they're happy. And I'm exactly like them, in every way.



I have been tragically sad. I have lost so much.

And there is no doubt I'm a hardcore loser.

But perhaps... never both at the same time? Eh?
