They make my blood boil, pt. 5
Rob's actual list of missing nerd accessories: laptop, spare glasses and case, mechanical pencil, ballpoint pen, click eraser, protractor, scissors, compass, T-square, coin organizer and change, antihistamine tablets, eye drops, multiple packs of facial tissues, and compact umbrella. At one point or another I kept each of these items in my own pack, to be prepared.
The cop's stereotypical list might demonstrate a little too much knowledge, such that he himself is suspect. If he had written "nunchakus" he would be in a headlock or wedgie right now. It's important he specified the lightsaber as fake, since that makes it really geeky; a real lightsaber would be undeniably awesome.
