Could this be any sweeter? Yes, that’s right - Mensa Canada is hosting thier Annual Gathering (AG) in Edmonton this summer! I will be able to observe the mating rituals and social interactions of ubernerds in their natural habitat - a hotel conference room!

NERDHIVE
That is, assuming I can get my testing and membership done in time. I am looking for other ‘smart’-asses to help me crash this party, so if you think you are cool enough to help me infiltrate this den of the elite, let me know!

Here is a list of the nerdy presentations scheduled for the Mensa Canada Annual Gathering (honestly, I couldn’t make this shit up):

  • Hybrid energy systems
  • Generational IQ gains
  • Chinese accupressure and how to self administer it
  • The Alberta oilsands.
  • How to get your email under control
  • The publishing process of Velvet Avalanche: a collection of erotic poetry from start to finish
  • Literacy & essential skills training in the workplace
  • Offshore tax havens - pros, cons, and risks
  • Corporate fraud (a la Enron) and the Sarbanes Exley Act of 2002

So I was sitting here daydreaming, and I thought, “Wouldn’t it be awesome if I was thrown out of the Mensa party?”. Here is my plan:

  1. Dress in an outlandish outfit, to split myself apart from the nerdy horde.
  2. Find other crazy Mensa outcasts, pour honey in their ears, and recruit them to team RAMROD (The Revolutionary Army of Mensans for Reform via Organized Dissent)
  3. Get drunk, stoned, and dry-hump the keynote speaker’s leg; my coup de grĂ¢ce.
  4. Record the entire escapade with multiple devices for my expose

So, any takers? Who wants to go on a savage journey into the worlds most secretive group of geniuses: Fear and Loathing at the Mensa Canada Annual Gathering?

More to come,

Jordan

    As your Lawyer, I advise you to take a quart of ear medicine - for personal use in your efforts to reach new heights, and to gain friends in the inner-ear infected circle of Mensats.

    My Mom pointed out the it’s probably hard to confuse and infiltrate a group of geniuses…

    …I’ll have to count on my ungodly-irresistible charisma…
