– You’ve got a little, uh, a little something…

– What? Something like in my teeth?
– Yeah, it’s just a piece of… What’d you have for lunch, black corn?

– How about now?
– Little to the left. No, my left… Man, it’s really wedged in there.

– You’re ruining the moment.
– I think I see some broccoli too. What, did you pack a lunch for later?

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.
