Man 1: Boxing Day in Canada is a tradition dating back for thousands of years.

Man 1: We take all the boxes left over from Christmas and pack our children in them for a day.

Man 1: We pack them in with Styrofoam and seal them up with tape for 24 hours.

Man 1: It’s sort of like the opposite of Mother’s Day.
Man 2: I will never go to Canada.

Applications open for Genius Northwest – an IRL gaming competition

May 8, 2026 by David Malki !

Last year, I participated in Genius Northwest, a gaming competition inspired by the Korean gameshow The Genius and its ilk.

It’s a reality show without the cameras — a 3-day, all-inclusive weekend retreat structured around a series of challenges and puzzles, in which personalities and dealmaking matter as much as playing games.

It’s truly a remarkable thing. I came in dead last in the competition, but I still had a great time participating.

The event is held annually in the Pacific Northwest (hence the name) and applications are now open to participate in the 2026 competition!

Learn more — and apply — at GeniusNW.com.
