My only superpower is conjugating verbs . . .

So my friend always tells me that I am the ultimate nerd. He says sometimes I say things and nobody in the room has a clue what I am talking about (it's not really my fault that his friends aren't intellectual types). He says that sometimes when I am talking, he sees their eyes gloss over and they pretend to understand and nod, but they've actually "checked out."

One time we were passing a Best Buy and he saw the Geek Squad Volkswagen and he told me that maybe I needed to join that club.

I said, "No, maybe I would belong more in the 'Nerd Herd' because I doubt that the Geek Squad has any use for any one whose only superpower is conjugating verbs."

He contorted his face into a twisted combination of confusion and disgust and said, "HUH?"

I replied, "Never mind."

Then, a week later...

He comes in telling me that he and two of the friends (who supposedly never understand me) stopped by the Kum & Go and picked up a soft drink and a hot dog for $1.69. He said they were excited about it because they are building another one close to the street they live on. He jokingly told them, "Oh, no, that one's not going to be a Kum & Go! It's going to be a 'Kame & Went'!"

He laughed at his own joke, and I giggled softly to myself. Ironically, I was more amused by the fact that he didn't realize that what he just stated was the "nerd" humor that he's always making fun of me over than by the joke itself.

So I aptly name this blog, "Kame & Went" because I can only keep it up while it is an assignment for Grammatical Analysis. There will Kum a day that I will have to Go, so the blog will become a place that I Kame & Went.
