About Garth Sundem

Do you need a Monday morning shot of geekery?

If so, you've come to the right place. Every Monday, early, I'll drop splendid geekery from the fields of physics, math, computer science, zoology


... Full Bio


If you are a side-blotched lizard (Uta stansburiana), then you have an orange, a yellow or a blue throat (easily determined by looking in mirror). If your throat is orange, then you are a big, bad machine and will easily kick the ass of anyone with a blue throat and steal his lady lizards. Ah yeah.

If your throat is blue, you are a wuss but not a complete wuss, and can still defend your women against the über-wussy yellow-throats.

If your throat is yellow, you are weak but deft and can sneak amongst the meat-headed orange-throaters and covertly snog their women (but the blue-throated lizards are no chumps and will ferret out your clever ruse and give you a thumping rather than your intended humping—does this sound like Mr T's weak attempts at rap from an early 80's afterschool special? I pity the fool!).

Thus, orange trumps blue, blue trumps yellow, and yellow trumps orange.

When using Rock, Paper, Scissors to solve your own mating/other conundrums be sure to keep in mind the following, excerpted them from the RPS Society's official rules—seriously, there are lengthy, official rules for Rock, Paper, Scissors:

•    Safety First! Always ensure that all players have removed sharp jewelry and watches.
•    Think twice before using RPS for life-threatening decisions.
•    Prior to the delivery of the final prime, the game may be called off for the following reasons only: rule clarification, decision clarification, or injury.

Join me every Monday morning for more grandtastic goodies from The Geeks' Guide to World Domination. Or if you like your geekery delivered fresh, consider subscribing to my rss feed or joining my Facebook Fan Page.

What if you're yellow throated (spined?) and paint your throat blue? Does that help?
