"ok ready? prepare yourself to be mind blown!"

"when you say stuff like that it makes you seem like a really awkward nerd."

"what kinda stuff. also i 100% accept that im a nerd. nerds are gonna rule the world."

"do you wanna here the theory or not?"

"would ya stop laughing?"

"im so sorry but im imagining you with your hands on your hips and saying that. and like wearing a tee shirt that says nerd rule the world and then on the back there would be a picture of a mind blowing up."

"well im imagining you look...like...a turtle!"

"weird analogy but you got me. i was wiggling my eyebrows."

"anyway you have a test to study for so, i'll let you get back to it."

"oh ok. goodnight jordan."
