Ernie Cline: Real Man of Genius

I stumbled upon this funny and witty Flash animation narrated by a poet and spoken word artist named Ernie Cline. I looked up Ernie Cline, and heard and read some of his other works. I was greatly amused and entertained by his performances and the work itself. It's very witty, smart, and funny. Most of his works are very nerdy because Cline is a nerd himself. But there are some that are just social commentary that anybody with a brain can appreciate, like "When I Was a Kid."

My favorite piece is called "Nerd Porn Auteur." Cline rants about how there should be more porn featuring women who are nerdy and smart. Here's a short excerpt:

You can have the whole cheerleading squad,
I want the girl in the tweed skirt and the horn-rimmed glasses:
Betty Finnebowski, the valedictorian.
Oh yes.
First I want to copy her Trig homework,
and then I want to make mad, passionate love to her
for hours and hours
until she reluctantly asks if we can stop
because she doesn't want to miss Battlestar Galactica.
Summa cum laude, baby!
That is what I call erotic.

Ernie Cline, you're a genius.
