Congratulations!
You know what straight A’s mean…..you my friend, are a nerd.
So? Nerds are cool. I’m a nerd. Do you have a problem with nerds, Kurt?
Congrats!
Any discussions of Nerdiness from straight A’s are mostly mute because that little question mark next to “advanced dynamics” will likely turn into either a C, a B, or maybe even an F.
But thanks to all of you for your words of support!
What if it turns into an A?
If my grade turns into an A, I will bake and ship a cake to every reader of MikeDiDonato .com
What kind of cake?
I personally would like a cake that uses diamond dust rather than flour.
The type of cake will depend on the quality of the reader.
‘ROCK AWARD’ recipients (S.McQuaid) would receive EXTREME Cakes. Something like a chocolate frosted ganash cake with almond decorations. Or perhaps an angel food cake with delicate frosting flowers and homemade sweetened raspberry or strawberry sauce. They would be delivered in stylish boxes, wrapped in beautiful paper, and adorned with bows. There may or may not be a trio of trumpets belting hymns during the presentation. Being a rock award recipient has serious perks, but it’s hard to gain the title.
‘Ultimate readers’ like JonAbad, Kurt, and Schenk would also get high quality cakes. Perhaps an ice cream cake, hand decorated, hand delivered, and layered with crushed Oreos. This is a tough level to get to, but those who have reached it can definitely get excited for their cakes.
The ‘Advanced Readers’ category includes (but is not limited to) such readers as Roland, Aaron, and Patrick. These readers would probably receive a shorter 8 or 9 inch cake that’s frosted and decorated in a manner that is individual and specific for the recipient (Roland’s would be covered with reeses pieces). The cake flavor might have two layers and might be advanced..maybe a marble, or higher quality chocolate or vanilla. The reader would be allowed to choose his or her cake flavor.
The ‘Regular Reader’ is one who would still get an 8 or 9 inch cake, but probably wouldn’t be able to request the variety. This would contain the vast majority of my readers who comment occasionally and participate in the mayhem, but might not have mikedidonato .com saved as a favorite place. This includes people like Tyler, Becky, Kate from Ohio, Liz, Devin, Ruth, etc.
The ‘occasional reader’ is one who comments less frequently but is still enjoyed (this includes people like JesAbad, Ed, P., and Ed G.). These readers might get a small 5 or 6 inch cake of either chocolate or vanilla variety but they wouldn’t be allowed to choose their flavor.
Then there’s the frequent or infrequent reader who doesn’t comment or comment’s rarely. This includes people like Annie Olives, H.C. Alicia, and Jesse’s mom. They might get a cupcake. Maybe with frosting. Maybe not.
The once a year readers, if they called me on it, might get a card with a picture of a cake on it.
Finally, there’s the heavily disliked contributers. But really, Sander probably shouldn’t eat any more cake.
YES!
I actually have a “Rock Award” plaque displayed proudly on my cubicle wall, along side other awards received during my time at my current job. I wear this honor proudly.
No, no, no. What you really want to do is to make the Sandercake out of chocolate Ex-Lax. Think about this. Not only will it deliver guaranteed punishment for making the rest of us miserable, but it will also….how shall we say it….reduce Sander’s mass, if you will.
I was entirely left off of this. How sad…
But, given that I’m the bigger man, I’ll still say “congratulations”.
They gave you a “?”? What the hell kind of grade is that?
(congrats on the As!)
DUDE. Cut it out!
check out the ‘star wars comparison’ list. Look at all the people I left out. If I had included everyone on that list except you, you’d know that I was being a dick. Instead, I just took a few random people at each level of readership that I thought would best exemplify that level. that fact that you were not in the sample set should not cause you grief.
Stop yo’ spreadin’ of bad moods! You know that us London chaps are tight.
Anita….poor poor stupid anita….I guess since you don’t know me we can shalk your reply up to iggnorance…so I will let it fly…this time. Have you ever heard the saying “Takes one to know one”? I guess not. Well…you don’t get much nerdier than I on this website. I doubt there is one person on this website who can attempt to claim the throne of Nerdiness from the Nerd King. So please, keep your nerd angst bottled up where it belongs. Thanks.
Isn’t that what they give kids for grades at Montressori schools?
Did you just say “dick”? I think this is a MikeD first.
But yeah, we cool. London represent.
I think its a first on the website. I’ve been called a dick many a times by Mike. Kinda like how I ate the last brownie, or I ate all the cheese in the fridge. Or I sniped his head from across blood Gulch. Its a mikedidonato.com first perhaps, but not a MikeD first.
There was no angst Kurt. Sounds like somebody’s projecting.
