OMG KEN JENNINGS

[zildjian133]

I have issues on ideas and concepts because I didn't know Ken Jennings

Interjecture:

It's not faster to type incorrectly. It has been proven by scientists such as me.

I don't watch TV, so this thread poses no purpose at all to me.

And Tass, I actually considered you not that smart until TWG solely based on the way you typed. There are a lot of idiot college students, you know.

Now I consider you at least psychologically intellectual. Same goes for money-related stuff since that is your major.

woohoo! now i be in with the cool kids!

also, squeek... how can it be faster to type Hello than to type hello. having to hit the shift key is definately in extra step, making the overall process longer.

and, the use of the ... is because i feel that it fits better with the dialogue. if you think about it being said outloud, its "also, squeek [pause] how can it etc"

and yes, i know my bling bling (or, at least, y'know, how to read financial statement, figure out equity, nonsense like that)

Speaking of Jeopardy...(I say this so as to avoid accusations of topic hijacking) they're holding a sort of college championship tourney right now. One of the players in the game I watched yesterday actually was a big DDR player. Sadly, however, she got the Final Jeopardy answer wrong and came in second. Here it was:

"This state is home to the largest portrait busts in the US." The question turned out to be "What is South Dakota?" due to Mount Rushmore.

But yes, Mr. Jennings is definitely something else. I think they're airing episodes out of sequence so we can watch someone other than Ken, leaving us waiting for the day when that Goliath is finally toppled.

Too bad he only gets to keep half of it. He won 2.5, he gets 1.25, and uncle sam takes the other 1.25.

That is why when you win a million dollars, you arent really getting much.

The fact remains that he has more money than I do, not to mention more money than he had beforehand. Therefore, winning money = good.

don't forget the 10% he's tithing... <shudders> ugh... i swear, tithe is the single worst word ever used.
