Are you a dork?

I'm a dork.

"Hi my name is Princess and I'm a dork"

Now let's try not to trip on our way back to our seats.


DORK!

[Dora]

1. Dora is a dork.

[ElectroPrincess]

2. Hey there Princess, my nickname is Electronic Princess

I'm a super dork who loves all types of electronics.

Well duh. :P

On Edit: Best DORK Example: I have a full size discone antenna hanging from the highest point of my vaulted ceiling (about 18 feet high) in our Master Bedroom attached to my base station scanning receiver. 1000 channels, oh yeah. How dorky is that?!?

[the Princess]

26. BEHOLD the new Princess of Dorkdum!!!

My Princess - at your service (as I kneel down I lean forward too far and fall flat on my face)

shit.

[rainy]

3. I'm a dork, I like to watch C-span, and I enjoy it.

I think that makes me a dork.

[Lavender Brown]

4. I watch C-Span, but I don't tell people that

Oops.

[ElectroPrincess]

11. Oh gee, that makes me a non-dork. Although I listen to CSPAN

I find it "quite painful" to sit through a fundie like Fallwell or an AEI Clone ... etc. Nope, I don't like CSPAN but I love reading the Washington Post and the NY Times.

[Cobalt Violet]

6. If that is one measure of a dork, then I'm a dork too.

I have some dork tendencies.

[StopTheMorans]

5. HAHA! Quick, everybody, point and laugh at the dorks!

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! *shoots water gun at dorks* :evilgrin:

[the Princess]

9. I'll get my water gun............

*shoots herself in the face with her own water gun*

*sputter*

Shit.

[Cobalt Violet]

10. *gets hit by a water gun, slips in a pool of water...

and falls on the way back to her seat*

7. speaking of Dorks.. Here's a little story my 11 yr old made up

for his word processing project.n Enjoy

Planet Dorkon is a huge planet about 120,000 km in diameter. The atmosphere on Dorkon is 100% pure methane so it’s really smelly there and humans don’t like to visit. The planet is covered with bubbling brown lakes and is very nasty to fall into but causes the soil to be very rich. The weather is dark and dreary almost year round and a day last 5 weeks. Dorkon has an internal heat source -- it radiates more than twice as much energy as it receives from the Sun. Some scientific theories claim that the center of the planet is full of cows.

The planet Dorkon is populated by millions of beings called Dorks. The national pastime on
Dorkon is Chess and most Dorks are masters at the game. Dorks work mostly as farmers
or accountants and are very good at numbers. Their biggest agriculture product is a vegetable called Gallumpengluben and is very similar to what humans call potatoes here on Earth. Dorks are a very peaceful group of beings and only resort to violence if they have been sent here to Earth.

The Government on planet Dorkon is a democracy and leaders are elected every 15 years. The government consists of a president a vice president and one representative from every town on the planet. There has never been a war on planet Dorkon during its entire existence and if the people have any problems with their leaders a special meeting is called for and the problems are discussed. The meeting lasts until everyone has kissed and made up. There are no exceptions to this rule and sometimes a meeting will go on for what seems like forever.

Baby Dorks are assigned pocket protectors at birth and must be worn at all times. These pocket protectors serve as identification and is used by the government to track all citizens through their life. If a pocket protector is lost, Dorks are sentenced to 6 months of no school or books to read. After their sentence is served, a new pocket protector is assigned . If they lose it again, they are sent Earth.

Once a Dork has been exiled to Earth, they usually become leaders in our government. Often they become CEOs in the defense industry heads our most greedy corporations . They are not used to breathing the air and this causes them to imagine all kinds of threats to the national security of Earth and convince the people that there has to be a war. Many innocent people are killed during these wars and the Dorks seem to get the strangest sense of pleasure when the numbers of people that are killed in the battles are high. These wars generate more money for their kind and when new dorks come to Earth they are usually accepted with open arms.

It is impossible to send a Dork back to his planet once they are here. They live very long lives here on Earth usually into their late 70’s and 80’s. This gives them the opportunity to cause the maximum damage to humans on this planet. They do this by convincing the people that they are good and wise and that they are the only ones that can keep them safe.

13. I still remember the day (during the early 70s) that my older brother

gave me his first slide ruler for my very own. <sigh of remembrance>

[motely36]

15. Wow, what a great story

I hope I don;t get sent to this Earth he speaks of.

[Wapsie B]

8. No you are not.

Stop saying that.

[ElectroPrincess]

12. Yes, we all are, about something or other. That's what makes us beautiful!

[Wapsie B]

16. Yes the unique qualities

we all have that makes us who we are. I see your point.

[the Princess]

14. Yes I am

It's OK I accept it! :) :) :)

[Wapsie B]

20. I just didn't want to see

anyone putting themselves down. Take it from a guy who beats himself up regularly. Maybe the only reason I'm still a Lutheran.

[the Princess]

22. Isn't Lutheran

the official religion of the Dorks?? Are you still in the closet???

C'mon come play with us dorks - be one of us. We accept you - we love you. Come be with us...............

[Wapsie B]

24. Yeah you caught me.

I've been in denial all these years. I'd love to be with you all......

[the Princess]

28. Welcome brother

We've been waiting for you!!! :) :) :) At least I have. :evilgrin:

*no I'm not winking at you I have something in my eye*

shit

I will wink at you momentarily

[Wapsie B]

30. Thank you sister!

Glad to be here.

winking back atcha ;-)

:)

[Not_Giving_Up]

17. Yep, I'm a dork

I can actually get more specific on my species though...I am part of the genus klutzus-dorkus. I have two left feet, and walk into walls while completely sober. If I'm carrying it, I will drop it. If my head is anywhere near it, I will bonk said head on said object.

I almost forgot - I also trip over objects that aren't there at all (quite frequently). My cats try to help me out by giving me something to trip over. I end up looking like a mega idiot trying not to trip over them.

[motely36]

18. I'm actually a foodus-spillus

I always make a mess with my food, usually getting on my shirt in the process

[the Princess]

21. Oh heck I do that too

I explain it by saying:

"if you aren't wearing it - you didn't enoy it"

*nodding head knowingly* Good excuse huh????

[the Princess]

19. Well then

You must be our leader.

"All hail............"

*woops*

*thud*

Damnit who left this water pistol here. Now I'm wet and my ass hurts!!!

[the Princess]

23. And I married a HUGE dork

He's th eonly perosn I know who can walk across a room with nothing on the floor and trip and fall on NOTHING! that's why I love him - he's a big cuddly dork.

Hi honey!!

[LeighAnn]

25. Right here, sis

[BootinUp]

27. Are Nerds welcome?

All nerds are dorks but not all dorks are nerds.

:-)

[the Princess]

32. Yes you are

A big freakin dork!

And I love you.

Dork

[bantha]

36. LOL! Hi CO!

Now you must learn to accept that you're a dork!

[CO Liberal]

39. And...

Seek out the people that have been hurt by my dorkiness, and ask their forgiveness.

The 12 Suggested Steps of Dorks Anonymous

1. We admitted we were powerless over dorkiness--that our lives had become unmanageable.

2. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to undorkiness.

3. Made a decision to turn our will and our dorkiness over to the care of God as we understood Him.

4. Made a searching and dorkiless moral inventory of ourselves.

5. Admitted to God, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our dorkiness.

6. Were entirely ready to have God remove all these dorky defects of character.

7. Humbly asked Him to remove our dorkiness.

8. Made a list of all persons we had harmed through our dorkiness, and became willing to make amends to them all.

9. Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.

10. Continued to take personal inventory and when we were dorky promptly admitted it.

11. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God, as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out - minus the dorkiness.

12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to other dorks, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.
