Nerdage has arrived; we’ve been mocked by The Lost Ogle
So, someone leaked the top blogs for 2008 at NewsOK to the Lost Ogle. Since Nerdage for the year ranked 4, we were singled out for some derision.
• The Nerdage Blog is about “Comic Books, Video Games, Action Figures, and Geek Culture.” Come on, was adding “Geek Culture” really necessary? This site even has something called the “Hobbit Blog” in its blogroll. This site makes Clark Matthews look as cool as the high school quarterback.
Well, let’s attack this point by point. 1. The Hobbit movie will make a gazillion dollars 2. Being a geek is now JUST AS COOL as being the high school quarterback (if not more so).
Anyway, thanks for stopping in, Lost Ogle! Keep checking back if you want to stay up on the latest on genre entertainment. Unless you’re too cool. (What high schools did you quarterback, again?)

Ummm, really? To who (and the hot chick on Chuck doesn’t count)?

And yes, it’s from five years ago. Being a geek has been the way to be for at least that long.
I wouldn’t worry too much, nerdblog. TLO thinks they are special because they have almost as many hits as the combined newsok.com blogs. But I bet 99% of TLO’s hits are because of the local-anchorwoman-in-a-pink-bikini photo. Ye olde lowest common denominator…
I’m totally jealous.
