Before I begin fellow Teamliquiders, allow me to introduce myself. I am Jordan, aka Imjorman, and I am a platinum terran player who is trying to improve and has goals for the masters league.

But my story to tell you today has nothing to do with Starcraft. In fact, Jim Raynor would punch me in the face for the story I am about to riddle to you...

I went and saw a chick flick.

Not just any chick flick, but Bridesmaids. Needless to say, I stuck out like a sore nerdy thumb.

Girls were giggling when "cute" young dogs (some refer to them as "puppies") appeared on screen, laughed at male genitalia jokes, and "ooh'd" and "aw'd" over attractive dresses, wedding decor, and things of like nature.

It made me sick.

Sick. This picture depicts the way I felt perfectly:

[image loading]

I went with my girlfriend/future fiancée because she watches starcraft with me and I felt like she would enjoy it. Boy did she get the better end of the deal. All the jokes weren't bad, and I even laughed some, but trust me brothers, stay and steal nerd's ladder points over seeing this flick if you can help.

I'm posting this blog just to be consoled from my felllow nerds and confess my horrible deed to the community. I returned from the depths of the female kingdom and I'm just telling those behind me to watch from my mistakes.

tl;dr Rather than making your nerd soul be drained of energy and will, stay at home and steal nerds ladder points over seeing the newest chick flick bridesmaids.

I've done worse. I DLed and watched Twilight before I knew how bad it was. I was like WTF IS THIS, then found out about all the Twilight hate. I understood why.

I know right Well at least you now know that if the girlfriend asks, your busy, sick, tired, or dying

Also, IDRA if you read this, no matter how attractive she might be, tell her your busy, its not worth it man!

You are either very brave or very stupid...

Anything bridal is bound to be painful. Alas you learnt the hard way.

Welcome back to reality brother, you have seen more than should ever be seen.

I read that and thought "I might as well GG to this guy" That sounds horrendous.

Yes, we have all learned the hard way about this disaster.

I'd lie and say that I won't ever make this mistake again, but I love her (don't pass nerd judgement) and would do it again. she does, after all, watch NASL, Day9, and IPL. She doesn't get the game, and I don't pretend to understand these female movies (often referred to as "chick flicks").

But needless to say, I don't understand how a dog with a bowtie is cute...it should be animal cruelty.

Yes, I said that, A DOG WITH A BOWTIE...disgusting

Don't know why anyone would pass "Nerd judgement" on you?

I have a confession to make. I was a little hipocritical earlier. I have had to sit through the entire BBC version of Pride and Prejudice and it wasn't with my girlfriend...

I will say that I was hungover and the girl is a really good friend of mine. I had crashed at her place and she wouldn't let me leave until we finished. I kept falling asleep so she would rewind to the last place she saw me awake. It took 7 HOURS to finish.

So there you go, we all stray from the path...

It was about six years ago, so all is good. Strangely, I am still friends with her...

Sucker for punishment I guess.

The female race has an interesting effect on the male. It's like...being mind controlled by an infestor. You just don't know what to do.

Bridesmaids was actually not terrible, and that's coming from a guy who hates most movies. It's got enough over-all humor in it to keep my attention, and the one Irish cop guy did a decent job acting. Other then that it was pretty bad, but not the worst chick flick ever.

Can you even consider Bridesmaids a chick flick? It just felt like an extended SNL skit for the most part. There are wayyyy worse ones out there.
