Ode to the Uber Nerd

Now, I love video games, but this is ridiculous. The uber lord of dweebs, also known by his moniker, Prepared, owns 36 World of Warcraft accounts, which he plays simultaneously on 11 computers. With his personal army he is able to single-handedly carry out raids that would normally require the cooperation of several lesser nerds. The subscription alone costs over $5000 a year. A loser in some circles, a legend in others, this man deserves an ode. And so I give you:

Ode to the Uber Nerd

Famed was this Prepared.
Far flew the boast of him.
Many a treasure fetched from far was freighted with him.
No room have I known so nobly dight,
With computers of war and monitors of battle.
With keyboards and mouses.
On his bosom lay a heaped horde of potato chips and twinkies,
His sustenance aptly to supply.
Since erst he lay friendless, a foundling,
Fate repaid him.
For he waxed under welkin,
His pimples glistening 'neath the screen's glow,
'Til his paladins, warriors, and hunters,
He did lead to might victory.

how did you even find out about this guy?

I think that Miles is the uber-nerd Prepared, which means he just wrote an ode to himself...

That is really something. It's people like him that give the rest of us who play a bad name.

Oh, man, that's messed up! I don't see how it's physically possible to do that on eleven computers at once! I can barely do it on one!

I love the Ode!!! Fantastic! (It's funnier when you look up the word "dight" in the dictionary....)
