Diary of a Nerd King #2: The Complete 2nd Season - Episodes 1 to 8 (14 page)

Another really good one was “You can't teach an old dog new.........................math.”  You probably already know the original prover is “You can't teach an old dog new tricks” which of course is really true.  You should see how hard it is to teach my Dad how to play a new video game when I get one!

Or how about this one… “You can lead a horse to water but.......................how?”  LOL, that’s funny!  It’s supposed to be “You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink” which I’m really not entirely sure is supposed to mean, but the new version is sure funny!  “But how?”  LOL!  That’s a good one! 

And here’s a good one to tell your grandparents about when they start lecturing you about saving your money like mine always do!  “A penny saved is...................................not much.”  That’ll get ’em!  The original is obviously “A penny saved is a penny earned” which I’ve heard a thousand times from Granny and Gramps. 

Wait until I tell them this one!  I can see the look of shock on their faces now, which will be SO funny because this new ending is SO true!  I mean, really!  What in the world can you buy with a penny these days?

This next one actually sounds like it came from the Bible or something.  I’m pretty sure it didn’t, but someone should probably stick it in there the next time they update it. 

“Children should be seen and not.........spanked or grounded.”  I think we can all agree with this one!  Of course the original is supposed to be “Children should be seen and not heard” which I’m pretty sure we all don’t agree with.  This new version is SO much better! 

I’m going to show this one to Mom and Dad and see what they think.  Maybe I’ll see if Mom wants to get it printed up all fancy and frame it to hang on the wall!  LOL… now that would be funny!

Here’s one that all the good liked.  I didn’t think it was all that funny, but they sure thought it was great.  “A miss is as good as a...................................Mr.” 

Mrs. Fizzerwinch said this one’s funny because it’s got something to do with women’s liberation.  I wasn’t too sure what that was about either, and Mrs. Fizzerwinch’s explanation didn’t help a whole lot.

She said it had something to do with women’s liberation and the feminist movement.  Apparently those are about a bunch of battles between women and men over a whole bunch of different stuff like decisions about babies, paychecks, and violence. 

I was kinda stunned because I’ve never heard about any of this stuff.  Mrs. Fizzerwinch said we’ll probably learn more about it in history class, but in the meantime, I might look into some more on my own.  I think it might make a GREAT idea for a killer new video game! 

Imagine like a war and hand-to-hand fighting game between men and women.  It’d be totally awesome!  Like wrestling on TV, but the girls could be wicked awesome fighters too! 

I’m gonna have to really do some thinking on this one because it could be worth a lot of money if I sold it to PlayStation or Xbox!  I could be rich just off my game idea, and then the YouTube millions Boogie and I are going to make will just be extra spending money.

I’d have so much money I wouldn’t know how to spend it all!  I’d be walking down the street and see a car I liked, and I could just walk up and hand the owner a handful of cash and drive away with it. 

Or I could buy an island with palm trees and beautiful beaches, and a base for my submarine that I’d buy to get back and forth from it! 

Or maybe I’ll just live on my submarine and forget about the island idea.  Imagine living on a submarine!  It’d be a wicked awesome sub, really big with lots of rooms and tons of TV’s, computers, and technical stuff. 

It would have the best weapons in the world too so nobody could ever tell me what to do, and maybe I’d even go around and help people by stopping bad guys with my Super Sub!  I’d be like Batman but with a submarine instead of a car. 

Mind you, now that I think about it, Batman has a submarine too. 

Oh well!  Now he won’t be the only one with his own submarine.  And maybe I’ll buy a wicked awesome car like the Batmobile, but even better!  I could be a Super Hero just like Batman! 

That’s the awesome thing about Batman.  He’s a Super Hero without any real Super Powers. 

Sure, he’s a wicked awesome fighter and can fight the bad guys, but he’s still just a normal guy with lots of high tech gadgets and cool vehicles. 

Boogie’s learning karate.  Give him the gadgets, and he could be a kid Super Hero!  Maybe I should start learning karate!  We could be a team.  Not like Batman and Robin because Robin is kinda like underneath of Batman, but more like the X-Men where everybody is kinda like equal members.
