Boys Without Prom Dates
I'm glad the internet has created a domain for those boys who have moved beyond Pokemon cards, but still lack the social interaction skills of real life. On the internet they are kings of their realm. When they see what the class posts about them, they come and defend themselves under the pretext that we have threatened their superiority, but really they're just excited that someone agrees that their kingdom has value. Okay, politeness has led me to use the ambiguous "they," but I respect Aldon. He is a computer nerd, a proud nerd whose contributions to class allowed us to explore questions and subjects we would have otherwise missed. Jason, however, dominated all conversation. When Colin asked why he came, he claimed, "I'm more engaging in person." I won't comment...
Jason was right when he said that Wikipedia is a game and that "You play someone who is smarter than you." He then contradicts himself when he states, "I'm in the real world, not in academia." He's not in the real world. He's playing 12 different roles while hacking with an internet site that doesn't even care he exists. Instead of spending all of this time and effort messing with someone else's product, perhaps he should try creating his own Wikipedia, though with a 1.7 GPA, does he have the skills?
