John Hodgman On the Coming Geek Culture
An anonymous reader writes "Famous writer and minor television personality John Hodgman posits the end of the culture of Jockdom in favor of a cultural reverence for engineers, scientists and Slashdot readers: 'Jockdom is very noble. It's not deliberative. It's certainly the best way to win wars. It's the best way to motivate teams of people to fulfill a goal — not just war, but getting things done. The most important way to motivate a factory floor. But as you know, we're not as much of a manufacturing society as we were before. China and other big industrial nations are rewarding their nerds and technicians rather than creating a culture that makes fun of them — it would be wise for us to embrace the book-smart as much as our culture has traditionally embraced the street-smart, the jock-smart. I'm not saying nerds must have their revenge; I'm just saying the time for wedgies is at an end.'"

This man's use of language reminds me of Terry Pratchett somehow. The American version.

Hey troll... NY has more gays than SF by FAR...and you MUST be a closet GAY to be so defensive. Does your boyfriend know you dog him when you are not doggy styling him ??
My guess is he's a ageing loser who's tried hard to hide his gayness and lust for black men. After mid-night he can be found sucking dirty black homeless dick in some seedy public toilet.
The mention of Harlem and San Francisco is subconscious way for his body to admit he's sucked big black dick from coast to coast.
