SONJA: AAAHH!! I’m missing my show!
GWENCH: OW! My arm! Hold on a sec!
SONJA: Come on come on we gotta get going
GWENCH: Hanging out with you is always so exhausting! Geez.

GWENCH: You know what your problem is? You’re afraid of missing out.
GWENCH: Everything barks for your attention, and you indulge it. You don’t have to do it all. It’s not worth it. Like when we went on our trip – remember that tour guide? “This is a rare chance, we almost never get to see the inside of the factor,” that whole spiel?

SONJA: Yeah! And we didn’t go! We totally missed out!
GWENCH: Did we, though?
GWENCH: Do you really regret not seeing the inside of the rope factory? Wasn’t it better to just relax in that park and watch the sun go down?

SONJA: It wasn’t a rope factory. It was a nunchuk factory.
GWENCH: WHAT ARE YOU SERIOUS

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.
