[[Two people are discussing movies.]]
Movie Buff: The movie was fine, but I kept thinking “But WHAT about Godzilla’s DOG?”
Movie Buff: How’s HE doing? Is he SCARED being in the middle of all this chaos? Or is he wagging his tail and waiting for a chance to lick his master’s scaly face?

Movie Buff: So THAT’s my idea.
Friend: Every movie remade from the perspective of the main character’s DOG.
Friend: Who was always conveniently just out of frame in the original.
Movie Buff: We can use STAND-INS for the main actors! We’ll only see them from the waist down most of the time!

Movie Buff: The BEST part is that our options are endless! There are HUNDREDS of movies in the world!
Movie Buff: NOW we can see what Batman’s DOG was doing while Batman was in that hole! Did HARRY POTTER’S dog BARK at Voldemort? OUR movie shows you THAT AND MORE!
Movie Buff: Don’t TELL me you’ve never wondered what AVATAR’S dog was up to during all that blue stuff! I know a way you can FIND OUT!

Friend: What if the movie already HAS a dog?
Movie Buff: WE OBVIOUSLY ADD A SECOND DOG

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.
