Haha I love watching that too, but I hate that like 90% of the words aren't even English.Kokonilly wrote:I just spent the last 2 and a half hours of my life watching the Scripps national spelling bee and trying to spell the words (and failing).
...This is an annual tradition.
Now that's hardly fair to have a spelling bee in English yet have most of the words as foreign words that have morphemes and pronunciations that are different than English.
There are plenty of difficult English words, why resort to asking Hawaiian and French?

Re: What is the nerdiest thing you have ever done
Why do people think that basic trig with right triangles is so hard? All it is is a little memorization of "SOHCAHTOA." from there on it's a matter of looking at the triangle.
