Valentine’s day showdown: Veronica vs Engadget
Wednesday, February 14th, 2007 - 6:16PM
It’s Valentine’s day, which can mean only one thing — a prize fight between my two loves, Veronica and Engadget. Who will win this 15 round battle?
| Veronica | Engadget | |
|---|---|---|
| Lots of fun | Yep! | Yep! |
| Gets me new gadgets | Not so much. | Like, all the time. |
| Takes care of me when I’m ill | Definitely. | Nope. |
| Good dinner companion | Yep! | Not really. |
| Great conversation about BSG and Lost | For sure | Not really. |
| Hot date on a Friday night | Yep! | Unfortunately, so. |
| Knows me very well | Absolutely. | A little too well. |
| Good kisser | ZOMG yes. | Huh? |
| Sucks up all my free time | You know it. | Don’t even get me started. |
| Worthy opponent on Xbox Live | Definitely. | Upon occasion. |
| Met the parents | Uh huh. | Uh huh. |
| Pretty | What a knockout! | Ha! |
| Shiny | Err… | Damn straight. |
| Comes in RSS | Oddly, yes. | Indeed. |
| Needs constant attention | Sure, so what? | Such is life. |
Wow, Veronica FTW! Final score: Veronica - 13, Engadget - 10. I hope she doesn’t make me dump Engadget. Care to see how I fared against World of Warcraft?
[...] Ryan came out on top, 13 to 7. Check out how I stacked up against Engadget. [...]

This is pretty funny. But it looks rigged! Veronica ought to win this in a landslide. To paraphrase from a mid-90s movie, there are only four questions of value in life:
1) What is sacred?
2) Of what is the spirit made?
3) What is worth living for?
4) What is worth dying for?
The answer to each of these questions is the same: Love. Not “Engadget.” :-)
But what is “ZOMG”? Is it, “Zoiks, oh my god!”?

“First Couple of Geekdom” comment seconded. When you start writing sonnets in Excel, I shall worry.
