So, I am totally stealing this idea from my bride. Frankly, I may be opening a Pandora’s box by even posting something with a title such as this one. For crying out loud, I teach high school students who would gladly accept a writing assignment with a title “101 Reasons Why I Think Mr. Andress is a Complete Dork.” For those of my students who choose to visit this dead end street off of the information super highway, let me remind you that I have two things: 1) editorial control over your comments here, and 2) complete control over the gradebook!
- I don’t own this shirt, but I do get it… and I think it’s funny. (FYI… my brother totally owns it, and he wore it to dinner tonight.)
- I would get really excited about a gift certificate to this site as a Christmas present.
- I was not only on the math team in junior high school, I was on the computer team. I actually missed school to compete for these two teams, and in the computer competitions… I won. At the state level. I would try to make myself sound cooler by explaining that I only competed to get out of school, but that would just make me sound pitiful. Instead, I will embrace my junior high nerdiness, and be thankful that I didn’t receive more wedgies.
- I am 36 and I am still in high school. Even the special kids get kicked out at 21.
- I think the blonde Cylon is hot. (For the record, if you understand this one, you totally need to be writing your own list of reasons about why you are a dork. And, in my defense, she was a Victoria’s Secret model before she became a toaster.)
- I have startrek.com bookmarked.
- I own all of the Lord of the Rings dvds. And the extended versions.
- I laugh at my own jokes. Loudly. Sometimes, alone.
- I am a grown man with a Master’s degree, which places me in the top 8.9% of Americans (educationally speaking), and I still sometimes refer to my bride of almost eleven years as my “baby mama.”
- In seventh grade, I faked sick and ended up having my appendix removed. That is commitment to a lie, boys and girls.
For the record, the shirt shows a Mac keyboard shortcut for saving a file. Thus, Jesus Saves. Ah, esoteric humor.

Yes, but do you have Wil Wheaton in your blog aggregator? And I may know who the blonde Cylon is (and may or may not have a girl crush on her) but that does not mean I’m going to do my own dork blog post.
