Dorky friends

To me, the sign of true friendship is when you can be an absolute geek around someone, and not only do they not judge you, they join in. That is great. I had the most awesome weekend. I hung out with YayCoffee. It was so much fun. We were complete and total dorks. We got entirely too excited over things which would cause most people to roll their eyes. Things ranging from turning up the volume and/or rewinding songs to hear what we believed were the best parts, to stalking possible underage Irish boys, to making some of the GEEKIEST/AWESOME t-shirts ever.

That is when you know you are in the company of a true friend. The absolute abandonment of cool. The people who are aware of your love of teen dramas but don't judge (usually they tune in also). People who will go with you on a search for a life-size Yoda cut out. People who not only watched you make a duct tape wallet for a boy to whom you were about to reveal your massive crush, but waited up until 2 in the morning to hear the verdict. People who understand that some songs have inherent dance moves that must be performed whenever the song plays, even if you are in a car.

These are real friends. I hope everyone has someone with whom they can completely dork out.

Geeks ARE cool, yo. And way-to-young for us boys in kilts are also cool. So are fried twinkies. AND duckt tape wallets.
