– …and so once you write that letter of apology to Mrs. Crabtree, your chores will be done and you will have paid off the repairs.

– Consider yourself lucky to have gotten off so easy.
– Oh, yes, absolutely!

– Dear Mrs. Crabtree, I’m sorry for spilling ink on your new desk. I sold a kidney to pay for the refinishing, because hey, I’ve got two, right?

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!
