Dork Divers Manifesto

[burnsfamily382]

"I was a dork diver before it was cool!"

i laughed out loud when i read that, but now i am confused.

does that now mean that there are 2 classes of dork divers? those who really are dorks and those that feign dorkness to appear cool?:11:

shouldn't claiming dork diver status pre-"cool" actually result in loss of membership of the dork divership fraternity based upon it's inherent one-upmanship?:shakehead

a ruling please

Well, you could say that all dork divers are equal but some are more equal than others.
Or perhaps all dork divers are dorky but some are more dorky than others!

That last is probably the most accurate!

Nah- the only true distinction is probably DD and NDD. There is, of course, room for ADD (advanced dork diver) and the like. It's just that some of us were dorks to begin with. Others may not have realised their true nature until it was shown to them- sort of like "I always knew there was something wrong- I tried to fit in when the bragging started, but I just never could. Now I realise that it was because, in my heart, I was a dork. Now I know that being a dork diver is something to be proud of and I find myself seeking out other dorks to dive with."

Along those lines. A dork would never look down on another dork just because they never used to wear a yellow snorkel! Or even if they still don't!

But some dork divers ARE more dorky than others!
(I speak from experience)

I'm going to say, for that record, that technically ALL dork divers were dorky before it was cool. I don't think it's really something that develops overnight!

I don't know why I ignored this thread for so long. Maybe it was because I assumed a Dork Diver would be the total opposite of what the manifesto actually is? I mean, usually dorkiness is next to computer nerdness. But I finally read it this morning and it was soooo not what I thought it would be. I am definitely a Dork Diver.

Dork Diver and proud of it!!

PS. I love the Just Say No to Koolaid. Bwaa haa haaa

Welcome, fairlybasset, to the wonderful world of dorkdom!

There are other DD threads that are worth the 3 hours it takes to read through them all- I haven't laughed this much since reading ClayJar's profile (j/k ClayJar).

Hehe, in the spirit of deja vu (which will be driving me nuts for weeks, I imagine)...

Hey, you know what we really ought to have? A Dork Divers forum! Maybe under Non-Geographic Clubs or something?
