Nerdist was started by Chris Hardwick and has grown to be a many headed beast.

Nerdist is a place where we nerds come together and share the nerdery that we find. It's also my home to various elements of the Nerdist Empire. You might recognize me from TV. You don't realize that's where you know me from, but it is. You think you went to college with me or I look like your cousin's friend, but that is not the case. At one time or another you stumbled upon me on your moving picture box in such cerebral gems as MTV's "Singled Out" and Noam Chomsky's "Shipmates." and so much more...
Weekend hostful! To make up for the one that got ruined last week! http://t.co/uGhLVEi2 #NJoy link

God. Damnit. That is genius.
I had a crush on Popeye when I was three. 28 years later, I still find this oddly hot.
Please do not judge me.
At least there’s no Ed Hardy design …
wow! this is good.
Absolutely phenomenal! That’s worthy of a ROFLCopter! (no, I won’t litter your comments with one)
That’s pretty good. Here’s what I think he’s saying: “I’m Popeye the sailor man… BOOT, BOOT! I’m Popeye the sailor man… BOOT, BOOT!”
I reckon…
So I was watching Chelsea Lately tonight and I thought to myself, ‘Chris Hardwick should be on Chelsea’s round table.’ Tonight’s show ended and I thought, ‘I’ll just watch the round table from this next one and go to bed.’ Lo and behold, there you were. Funny as always. I hope the fact that they had to beep you a few times doesn’t deter them from inviting you back. Cheers!
I like the site’s new look, btw.
they are ugz (sp?) if i’m not mistaken….genius
I think Toast understands the Ugg of it all, but I do acknowledge “boot boot” as a perfectly reasonable interpretation of said Pop(eye) Art.
HAHAHAHA!!! Funny as hell.
that’s easily the best popeye picture ever. i assure you this page is getting thrown all over my facebook friends’ walls
My utter lack of boot knowledge seriously hinders the amusement I am supposed to be feeling. Guess I had to be there.
It took me WAY too long to get that. Must need more coffee.
Yeah, it took me a minute too, due to my lack of boot knowledge. I hate shoes…
Best non-pornographic popeye picture i’ve ever seen.
It took a good 40 seconds before it hit me. Funny!
that is funny as hell
I know nothing about boots and I still don’t “get it”. Help a nerd out here. I must have missed the class when they taught me about the link between Popeye and boots. I know I am stupid and it’s okay to laugh at me. It’s not that I am stupid, I just have my brain filled with other shit.

*S* I’ll help… The boots are called Uggs (sp?), and there are 4 of them. You know Popeye’s crazy laugh “Ugg ugg ugg ugg!”
Get it? Got it. Good!
It does pay to know more about boots than I have a right to know. I would have NEVER gotten that joke because my interest in boots is just not that refined. Thanks for the clarification, I do think it’s funny now. Only a rare few people have to know what those boots are called and be able to connect that train of thought and it wasn’t me.

No problem, I’m with you! I’m not big on shoes or boots. I must be the only chick on the planet Earth that doesn’t give a rat’s ass, they just have to fit…
happens to us all.
