Ugly, Mean Nerds Unite!

Ben Silverman, the head of NBC, who was just promoted to that position last fall and is oft described as a TV development wunderkind, said this the other day about the possibility of the Golden Globes being canceled due to the writers strike:

"Sadly, it feels like the nerdiest, ugliest, meanest kids in the high school are trying to cancel the prom. But NBC wants to try to keep that prom alive."

This guy must be a moron. How many people these days think back and feel that the popular jocks were the nicest, most awesome people in high school and that they're the people to sympathize with? Also, how many writers are going to want to work for a guy that called them ugly, mean nerds? Loser.
