Beyonce & Jesus

Blogged under Work is where the nerds are. on Tuesday 26 January 2010 at 9:00 am

Last week I caught one of my office nerds trying to imitate Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” dance. It was possibly the best moment of my entire life.

It sparked this conversation between two of my other nerds:

Me: “If you had to choose between being Beyonce or Jesus, who would you rather be?”

Nerd 1: “Hmm… that’s a tough question. They both have pretty good hair, but chicks are really into Jesus.”

Me: “Um, religious chicks are into Jesus. Those are the girls you’ll never score with anyway.”

Nerd 2: “I think I’d go with Beyonce, but I need to check with my wife to see if she’ll still love me. That’s the only thing stopping me right now.”

Nerd 1: “I’m still stuck on the girl part. I really don’t want to be a girl, but it would be so hard to be Jesus and probably not a lot of fun.”

Me: “Dude, I don’t think the atonement was supposed to be fun.”

The conversation went on for probably another 20 minutes. I love that they didn’t, for a second, doubt my question and just played along.

I have the best nerds ever.

Every time you share me I won't punch a kitten!

    Ooh! I want to play! I’m going to go with option C: Jeyonce. That way, everyone will worship me, but I’ll be known for my banging body and bad-ass dance moves. Plus, I’ll have more money than God….err….myself.

    Tuffy! After watching the Beyonce and Lady Gaga video I can’t, in good conscience, choose her. So that leaves me with Jesus, which is like the equivalent of a unicorn, right?

    I would pick Beyonce for sure.

    At this point, I’m 90% sure that you’re making these characters up. I mean, even for Utards. Come on.

    I’m kinda feeling Summer’s comment, although I kind of want to have “all the single ladies” played at my funeral.

    I think you DO have the best nerds ever and I’m going to cling to the fantasy that they are real nerds, and not creations of your scary, though charming, mind.

    I want some nerds of my very own. Where can I get one?
