Life Expectancy

Squeezing Balls

When I think of nerds, I mostly think of glassy-eyed computer geeks with a severe lack of Vitamin D in their system. I met a different nerd the other day, one that squeezes stress balls extensively, squeezing them and counting while doing so and keeping record of the whole affair. All said and done, your average stress ball can be squeezed roughly 3000 times before failure.

I have never before, as I can recall, been more impressed, surprised, delighted, all at the same time by something someone has done, said, or thought. The whole affair gains even more inherent contrast, comedic potential due to the fact that the nerd in question usually does not share many of his observations, thoughts, dwellings. He is one of the rather silent, introvert kind.
