Nerdy pillow talk

August 15, 2008

Adam: I made a Wiki at work today!

Me: Who’s going to read it?

Adam [deflated]: Only me and a couple other guys.

Me: Can anyone make a comment on it?

Adam [getting frustrated]: Wiki’s aren’t about the comments; they’re about the communal sharing of knowledge.

Me: Sure, within a social constructivist perspective. With Wiki’s, don’t you learn only what others have deemed it pertinent to know about a particular subject? What personal development is made? What higher cognitive state can be attained from that? How can it help your craft?

Adam [getting even more frustrated]: You’re thinking about your bloggingworkshopthingy aren’t you?

Me: Kinda. I like razzing you even more.

Adam: My Wiki really is awesome, you know.

Me: I’m sure it’s the best Wiki in the world.

Adam: Now you’re just being patronising.

I think I need to start re-reading some of my textbooks. I could never have come up with that “higher cognitive state” line in my current scrambled Mommy brain state.

Fantastic. I love razzing my hubster too. Sometimes it’s just too easy.

This may be further proof that men and women really aren’t meant to live together. The poor guy’s head could explode after an exchange like this. Mars and Venus! My God! It’s more like the difference between one being from one solar system and the other from a petri dish on Earth. Oy! I feel Adam’s pain.

“I made a Wiki at work today!” may be one of the funniest lines I’ve ever read.

Heh.

“I made a Wiki at work today!”
