Jeopardy Update

Last week, Jeopardy hosted its annual College Championship where the best and brightest from some of the finest institutions that this nation has to offer, for a chance to win cash and other assorted prizes. However, I never got the memo that my school, a school known for its inferior academic reputation, had a student on the program. I knew the girl my freshman year and from my few interactions with her, she did not seem like the sharpest tool in shed. Case in point: She defriended me on Facebook soon after I met the girl. Why? I have no idea. Perhaps I wasn't the person I portray myself to be on social networking sites when she first added me as a friend. Or maybe it was because she was trying to get freaky with my roommate who managed to get himself nearly kicked out of college in the matter of six weeks. There's a million different reasons for why these things happen, but she's pretty fucking dumb in my book. She obviously made that known to Mr. Trebek and the rest of the world, as she didn't advance very far in tournament.

But the point is this people: Jeopardy is now looking for entrants in next year's College Championship and are offering an online test for those interested. Of course, with my vast knowledge of things that are useless and weird, I am applying to be on the Championship. Granted, my odds are incredibly slim, since there are college students out there that are much smart than I am and I will probably miss the test like I did last time. Hopefully, that won't happen, as I will not endure any more waiting for my stardom on syndicated television shows. Suck it, Trebek. I'm coming and this time, I won't be taking any prisoners.
