I like dorks and dorky movies!

I just watched a movie on you tube and heard a great quote about dorks.

I really enjoy movies where "dorks" are either highly esteemed or triumph in the end.

Some of my favourites are X-Men, Napoleonn Dynamite and 13 Going On 30.

This movie, Taken Away, was nothing about dorks. It was about an adoption story.

But it briefly referred to a falling in love scene between a previous rebellious teen girl and a confident dorky boy.

The girl told the boy he was a dork.
He did not try to earn her approval even though he was attracted to her. He simply turned too walk away as he did not appreciate her insult.

I loved this scene alone. He had dignity and self respect.

But the girl redeemed herself and said
"I like dorks. Dorks are different. They are free thinkers. They don't follow other's they make their own path."

Wow! Sure wish I was that proud too be a dork when I was in my late teens.

I'm sure proud of it now!
