So, whats the secret to being a Jeopardy Genius?
Read a fucking book, you idiot. No, but the real secret is having intellectual curiosity. If you dont know something, look it up.
Yup, it seems like its that easy. Anything else to add?
Well, I lead a very intensely unhealthy lifestyle so I don't know if your readership base will appreciate getting advice from a drinker, smoker, and non-exerciser. I do ride my bike everywhere for my commute. Other than that, maybe don't take advice from me. You know what, just go ahead and ignore this entire article.

I liked his wild and curly look, I thought it made him look more distinguished and intellectual. Now he just looks normal, even though he is still an intellectual.
