montreal Right, so there are a colony of nerdy D&D-playing medeivalists who gather in Mount Royal Park every Sunday to run around screaming and slapping e ach with swords made of duct-taped iron bars and shields made out of the lids of recycling bins. Shit, there are even dudes with nerf arrows, fl ails, battle axes and big fuckin hammers.
com/2005/0 7/04/hipster-zombies-versus-knights-of-the-nerd-table/trackback/ 1 Yep, thats my friend, The Dude. Hes asked me to join in on nerdapalooza many times but its just not my scene.
So, being a member of a group vaguely similar to the Nerds here, I ha ve a question. Were they nice about it, or did they just beat the hell out of you with what appear to be largely unpadded weapons? Members of these kinds of groups usually try to be friendly, but with the ravenous undead pouring out of the woods, cooler heads may not prevail.
the circle will be complete when the nerds dress as travelers from th e future (twilight zone style) and warn the hipsters that their own collective fantasy is just as irrelevant to history as D&D combat club. the hipsters will react with indifference,and continue bolstering their egos, getting soon to go out of style tattoos and working on post-ironic record collections. the nerds, feeling vindicated, will return to the park to happily vent their own feelings of self loathing by beating up friends with nerf swords.
So it appears these Hipsters have made up their minds to recieve th e nerd-harrassing-mantle from the Jocks. Thus continues the time honored tradition of acting like a bunch of assholes in order to briefly distract ones self from the boring vacancy that is a lifestyle of style over substance.
Those who criticise these frivolities should give it a go for those who say dont they have anything better to do? Well, I guess youve got nothing better to do than wander the web in search of things to can complain about. Exercise and social interaction with a splash of friendly violence ahhh the human race at its very best.
