Hail to the dorks!

Recently, I have been accused of being a dork more often that usual (which is saying a lot). Why am I being called a dork? Because I am a proud Belegarth participant. What is belegarth? Well, think paintball, but instead of guns and paint, we use foam swords and shields (and clubs, flails, javelins, etc.) That's right, I sword fight. And this isn't cute cuddly foam, but industrial strength stuff... the kind that leave bruises... BIG bruises. :D Now I don't care if I'm called a dork, I know who I am and have no problem with it, infact I probably embrace it a bit too much. But this got me thinking... which is it better to be a "cool" person or a "dorky" one? Who has more power really? Who could survive without the other? I know some "cool" people and obviously am aware of at least a few "cool" people on the larger society scale... and you know what I notice? They set trends. Like clothing, gadgets, etc. But did they create such clothing, gadgets, etc.? NO! THE DORKS DID! Where would "cool" people be without the dorks? They'd be nothing. Hail to the dorks! :D That is all. Haha.
