Nerds Do It Better
Nerd Love Part IIII
(several drunken
and unclear memories later Brent wakes up on a couch)
Brent: (slowly wakes
up to see Greg’s face mere inches away) Gah!Greg: morning sleepy
Brent: back up ya weirdo (Greg does and he is naked below the waist) AH Jesus man! What’s wrong with you?
Greg: What? These are my pajamas.
Brent: You’re nude from the waist down and wearing a stained white t-shirt.
Greg: Yeah, how do you sleep?
Brent: could you put some pants on please
Greg: my house my rules, now scoot over (He sits down next to Brent and grabs a laptop)
Brent: You’re crotch looks like a rabid raccoon eating a raw hotdog, how do you get your wife to have sex with you?
Greg: Have you met my wife?
Brent: …fair enough.
Greg: ok check this out (he shows Brent the laptop)
Brent: nerdmeet.com?
Greg: yeah it’s a dating website specifically for the nerdy inclined
Brent: well I applaud the innovation but obviously that is not necessary for those of the smooth talking persuasion.
Greg: You asked a bored and drunk nerd girl for her number, let’s not get cocky. Besides it never hurts to put some hooks out to sea.
Brent: No thanks
Greg: I made your profile a month ago
Brent: wow you’re just like a HUGE ass…So how many views have I gotten.
Greg: uh…zero
Brent: What? Give me that (takes the laptop)
Greg: Yeah, you mess with that. I’m going to scramble up some eggs.
Brent: No pubes in mine please
Greg: if you insist
Brent: quick question. Why does my profile say that I am a Native American scientologist who works as a Wal-Mart greeter?
Greg: …You’re not?
Brent: dick.
(at table eating breakfast with Gwen)
Brent: Wow Gwen no offense, but you look rough, how much did you drink last night?
Gwen: I dunno I kept drinking after you passed out in the bathtub.
Brent: I passed out in a bathtub?
Greg: haha yeah. It was right after you went on a rant about firefly.
Brent: well its cancellation was a travesty
Gwen: So was your argument with a cardboard cutout of Spock
Brent: Oh dear god
Greg: Yeah that was the more embarrassing of your drunken moments last night
Brent: Casey didn’t see me like that did she?
Greg: Nah, not too many people noticed I wouldn’t worry about it. Also, who’s Casey?
Brent: The girl I’m supposed to go out with, she was the only person not wearing a costume.
Gwen: Oh the girl in the pink t-shirt?
Brent: Yes!
Gwen: Yeah she totally saw you
Brent: Noooo! What do I do?
Greg: You don’t do anything, you were a party animal last night. A side of you we see too little of, I’m sure she thought you were awesome.
Brent: I’m not so sure.
Gwen: What would you have done had she not seen you like that?
Brent: called her in a couple of days to set up our date.
Gwen: well stick to that plan, pretend you didn’t get these second hand memories from us.
Brent: So just pretend I didn’t do anything and everything is fine?
Gwen: yep
Brent: Hm, yeah I’m cool with that.
Greg: Welp (standing up)
Brent: Gah! (shields his view with his hand)
Greg: I have to go to the store to organize some back issues, you guys wanna help?
Gwen: (smiling) nope
Brent: Not even kind of
Greg: well fine. (he leaves)
Gwen: Got any plans for the rest of this gorgeous Sunday afternoon?
Brent: Nope. Wanna kill zombies?
Gwen: read my mind
(Gwen and Brent playing video games)
Gwen: So what are you going to do for your first date with this Casey
Brent: I don’t know it’s only been all of 12 hours since I got her number.
Gwen: Well you should start thinking, first dates define a relationship for a long time.
Brent: Greg took you to Medieval times, drank too much and, after trying to fight the blue knight, he vomited in your lap.
Gwen: (sigh) yeah
Brent: (laughs) Well maybe your right but if so I should probably get someone else’s advice.
Gwen: …Who else do you even know?
Brent: Well I could ask…there’s always…ok fair point. She says she’s not easily impressed.
Gwen: Then you have two options, go all out and try to impress the unimpressable OR do something very simple that makes you appear magnificently average.
Brent: What would constitute “all out”?
Gwen: Paying more than 40 dollars.
Brent: Average it is.
(Back at Brent’s apartment. He is dialing the phone)
Casey: (over phone) Hello
Brent: Hey Casey its Brent
Casey: Ah yes the guy who got in a fight with Spock and then passed out in the bathtub
Brent: Worst nick name ever. I, uh, don’t usually get that carried away.
Casey: I couldn’t tell
Brent: Well if you could overlook the bathtub nap I think we could have a lot of fun this Friday night.
Casey: You don’t need me to over look the fight with a two dimensional Vulcan?
Brent: No I stand by it, Firefly is awesome and Spock had it coming
Casey: (laughs) ok I’m in
Brent: Great! When should I pick you up?
Casey: How bout seven?
Brent: Seven it is.
Casey: Ok see you then
Brent: Looking forward to it. (hangs up. Immediately calls new number) Hey Greg, She said yes.
Greg: Really?
Brent: Yeah, I wasn’t expecting it either.
Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
ReplyDeleteFirefly is THE best television show I have ever had the privileged to watch! Serenity is good... but its still too bad they didn't finish the series! Plus, the Shepard didn't have a decent part in the movie!
