Pretty funny when Conan was pretending to be the nerd online. "Why aren't you responding immedately? Ahh, daylight coming through my window!"
I was with him. You make fun of those dorky nerds, Conan! Those sad, sad people who have nothing else better to do all day that troll message boards and talk about popular culture! HAHA! Those people are totally lame!

Wait...::notices her 100+ posts and sickly computer tan:: Oh. ::hangs head in shame:: Now I'm sad.

Hey Sev, I'm sure he does it out of love and empathy--I mean, look at him. He's clearly one of us. Which reminds me of a good movie I've seen:

Gobble, gobble! We accept you! One of us!
Gobble, gobble! We accept you! One of us!

Or like on that Simpsons where everyone is chanting "One of us! One of us!"
It's ok. I embrace my nerdy dorkdom with open arms and tape holding my black-rimmed spectacles together. Can I make these pants any shorter? I bet I can! Now if only I could find my pocket protector...

yeah, that was rather fantastic. [Conan mimes typing on his desk] "Conan O'Brien cited the wrong movie when he discussed Klingons!"

Conan is a total JOCK! He does bicep curls with his desk mic!

Your avatar shows Conan watching Google's corporate headquarters explode after Conan adventurously typed in 'Google' on Google search. (Conan's pompadour is at maximum height). ohmy.gif

You know what was really great about that moment? Conan said "movie" and Brian Posehn is off-screen trying to correct him, "wrong UNIVERSE." laugh.gif Ah, a perfect moment of utter dorkdom preserved for the ages.

BTW, I found my pocket protector. It was under my retainer.

oh really? hah, I didn't even catch that.
Speaking of retainers, I think one of the reasons I started watching/liking LN is because one of the first times I saw it (as a junior highschooler), I was wearing a headgear thing just like Stacy Richter!! Conan brings us nerds together so well.


And my avatar is from the night Conan announced he'd be taking over the Tonight Show in 2009. He was questioning whether the pomp will work at 11:30. (Of course it will - we wouldn't have it any other way, right? wink.gif)

As we all know, Conan's pomp is quite temperamental due to Conan's hot Irish temper and he may have to use a whip and a chair to bring it under submission when 2009 rolls around. Are you a "Fawlty Towers" fan? If so, do you remember Basil thrashing his car with a tree branch when it wouldn't start, saying, "I warned you, time and time again" -- let's hope it doesn't get to that with Conan's pomp.
You didn't see the explosion and demolition of Google Central when they typed the word 'Google' into Gooooooogle's search engine? You have to take your hat off to whoever came up with that one.

Did you notice last night, Conan, discussing his pale summer suit, and as an afterthought, called it a Sears' suit? Was he having a flashback to Chicago remembering when he and the Sears' Tower played the Chicago Theatre?

Conan's pomp will never die, and no NBC exec can make it die either, if they know what's good for them (it's one of his foremost trademarks after all) so... I really think the pomp has a nice long life ahead of it. biggrin.gif

I did see that google sketch, which prompted a bunch of LN nerds to google google as well. But I wanted to clarify where the avatar is from for anyone who missed the episode when Conan made the "announcement".

"When I want to avoid crowds, I...shout 'Hey everybody, it's me! Geraldo!'"

Nicely crafted joke, Conan O'Brien! I must go share it with my nerd consortium on the internet!

Makin' fun of us helpless nerds again! Well, it may have been the trifecta of nerdiness that was: Conan O'Brien/Stephen Colbert/Rainn Wilson.

I love nerds. biggrin.gif
