The Edge

To the nerdy know-it-all; I dedicate this column.

For I admire ye, answerer of questions and questioner of answers.

I admire your courage to speak up and share your infinite knowledge.

I admire that you can go for days without showering in the name of science.

I admire your commitment to provide a 1,500 word essay for every one word exam question.

I admire your gall to embarrass your peers by calling them out when they answer a question incorrectly during class.

I admire your unbridled passion for late 80s fashion.

I admire your ability to stand up and admit that you are right and everyone else is wrong.

I admire that you’d have the self-confidence to argue spatial dynamics theory with Stephen Hawking.

I admire your ability to ignore the fact that everyone wants to smack you every time you open your mouth.

Yes, I admire ye nerdy know-it-all.

Your knowledge knows no bounds.

No classroom would be complete without you.

Now go forth, and continue your noble quest, nerdy know-it-all.
