You Laugh, You Lose

#TalkNerdyToMeLover's @maniacalmorgan

Man, today has been a good day! I had my preliminary date and had a good day at work. Could I ask for more? How about a same day follow up date? That's right! We're going to go do some more talking and connecting whilst sitting around a bonfire. Awesome! Enough about me, I'll end up posting on that later. Let's play You Laugh, You Lose! For you new to the site, hello and welcome. Here's how we play. I post a few funny pictures. If you laugh, you lose and you have to "like" us on Facebook. Sounds good? Let's play!

ROFL, amirite? You lost by now. If you didn't, then you might actually be dead.

#Jackass 3D

#TalkNerdyToMeLover's @Coordin8dDrunk

Jackass. Jackass. Jackass. Ohh how I love me some Jackass. I hope everyone is excited for Jackass 3D because I sure am. Jackass Number 2 caused a whole paradigm shift for how I looked at Jackass. When it was just the show I thought it was pretty good but that there was only a funny bit or two per episode. When their first movie came out I didn’t even go see it because I heard it wasn’t very good. But Jackass Number Two.…… epicnesswin is all I can say. 

If you are new to Jackass the crew is divided into three groups. The first group consists of people that are legitimately crazy and do all of the show because they just love pain and making people laugh. Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O and Chris Pontonius fall into the first group. They will do anything at anytime without hesitation, and are usually the guys trying to talk other people into doing the stunt with them. I am pretty sure these guys would do this stuff for free because crazy is their biggest talent and there are only so many ways to use it.

The second group is made up of people who love the attention and money but sometimes hate everything about Jackass. Bam Margera, Ryan Dunn and Wee Man fall into this group. Wee Man really would be in group 1.5 but that is not an actual group. This group of guys love being on the sideline drinking beer or doing the embarrassing stunts but when it comes to doing the crazy shit are not happy with life at all. I am going to guess the Bam Margera will cry at least 3 times in the new movie- it’s kind of his thing.

The third and final group consists of Dave England, Ehren McGhehey and Preston Lacy. These guys hate everything about Jackass but the money is just too good to pass up. You can see the fear and despair in Dave England’s eyes every time he is about to do a stunt. I actually love watching his stuff because his hate of Jackass makes everything he does even funnier.

Jackass 3D hit’s the big screen tonight so go check it out. Or you can wait for my review before you decide to go or not. In the meantime you can stream Jackass 2.5 on Netflix and get all warmed up in preparation of what I can only hope is incredible.

Tell @Coordin8dDrunk how much you LOOOOOOVED his article!

Preliminary #Date

#TalkNerdyToMeLover's @maniacalmorgan

Ahhhh, oh my goodness. I just got back home from my preliminary OkCupid date. What's a preliminary date? Why, let me explain.

First of all, let me just say that I messaged this chicka on a whim. I don't log onto my OkCupid account much these days. I happened to log on the other day and browse some profiles. I can't even remember where I saw her profile, but I do believe it was in the "You might like..." column. I saw that she was online and we ended up talking for a few hours via OKC messenger and ended with exchanging phone numbers.

After some text messaging, we decided to meet up for a short "preliminary" date to see if we even liked each other. We sat and talked outside of The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf for a little under an hour. It felt really good! It's very rare for me to find a girl who I can just sit down and talk to. I have a very cluttered brain which goes a mile a minute, but I'm also a smart dude. A girl has to have brains and beauty. We talked about some really deep things including the story surrounding me finding out I was adopted (which I will post on in the near future). She is definitely a smart cookie (and has the looks to boot) and we are totally going out later tonight! So stoked!

Moral of the story, is if you are going to do online dating, a "preliminary" date is a must! Meet up for a coffee or something that doesn't take a lot of time. If you don't connect, then there is no pressure to spend a lot of time with the person seeing as it was already clear that this was just a short meeting. If you two have a great connection, then you will see each other again! Truuuuust me, you rather leave a first date wanting more than having had too much.

Have you found this to work for you or have any horror stories you'd like to share? Tweet me or Facebook me!

#Nerds, It's a small world after all ...

*waves* hi from Blog worldddddd!!!! Thanks again to Kodak for the pass!!! Dude, what a day. I just got done meeting with the casting peeps for the Ford Rally Race, and oh.my.gatos. what a small world.

I just walked up to this random computer at the booth, as I saw it said "Apply now" on the screen, and to my left was Kristen from Ford HQ!! We met back in February, and she's a super cutie patootie. One of the first things out of her mouth was that she heard I went out on a nerd skype date for #controlTV. Yep, I haven't even gotten to a chance to post on it yet - but yah! haha! I was just on #controlTV!!! This super cute dude Tristan is livestreaming his life 24/7. Very EdTV. Seth Green is behind it, and its pretty cool. You can watch it live here: www.controlTV.com. Just got a call from production as well, and they asked me back to hang out with Tristan Sunday afternoon. Itchin to be bitchin!

Follow @Tristancouvares on Twitter!So, Kristen then takes me over to meet with the casting peeps. She explained that I was part of the Ford Fiesta Movement chapter 2 and yada yada ... WELL the guy that I sat with, is friends with the guy that cast me in Deal or No Deal Syndicated for their first season, which was shot in LA. I was like holy crap! It took me a minute to remember the dude, I kept seeing the blond guy that was with him at casting as well. DUDE! Those guys were awesome, they also put me in the pilot for 20Q. So rad! I got the final question right ... and they were like you're going to win $100!!! I got all excited, and they were like jussttt kidding. We just needed to see your reaction if you had actual money behind it. Evil evil producers.

We then got to chatting, and I explained to him that I also wrote Bertram's online bio. See, the Ford Rally Race is brought to you by the peeps that created the Amazing Race, Betram Van Munster and Elise Doganieri. I never sent Bert an invoice for my services as for one, it still has yet to even be published, as this man's work is just WOW!! Intense!!!! That opened the door for him asking why, and then I got to tell him about TNTML and bartering social media to live without it being weird, and "pitchy." THENNNN!! When I didn't get the gig with the CEO of AOL, I KNEWWWW he was the only person that would understand being kinda crazy outside the box. Bertram created the box. For reals, all BS aside - writing his bio, reading just all of the stuff that he had done and how forward thinking he is ... just knocked my nerdy socks off.

My ultimate goal in life is to create a formula or some sort of structure to storytelling across all the workable elements of social media. I do it now with this site, and I know it works. But it is only as good as how many people know about it. Bert is good peeps to know. He totally dug it, and even actually at the time told me about this show. However, when you're sitting in a room nerdo y god-o you shut your damn trap about everything that was discussed in that room.

The BEST part about all of this, is I get to have a partner in the race. And OMG OMG OMG!! I totally have the chick! A few months back, I met this girl Lindsay who is like a crazy super hot non-nerd. Literally, I showed this girl Ustream and how to livestream in general, and she wrote in her little notebook "youstream." *there there* We're kind of opposites, but complete hustlers. Lindsay travels the world staying in hostels bartering her time spent with working at the hostel. It's a total trip!! So yeah. I'm pretty effin excited.

I think our odds of getting this are pretty good.

DUDE! It's entirely interactive and engaging, we compete in these missions, and if we don't know the answer - we use social media to find it. SO SO SOOOOO badass!!!!

Crossing my fingers, and toes while pickin my nose ... and

Can I just say this one more time ...

GREATEST TIME TO BE ALIVE!! BAHHH!!!

PS. Lindsay, you're hot. Now only if you were a nerd, we could go to Vermont and get married and have baby monkeys. K, bye.
