What is an MVP Anyway?

I have often asked myself this question. A small attempt to define them has been made here. Even this effort has, I think, has fallen short. As I touched upon it in my Smartphone Thoughts post, I am convinced the MVP is an evil secret society trying to direct the lives of all of us geeky people. Much like Mobius, the other secret society, they use indirect methods to control and fool us. They may not have the black helicopters, but I wouldn’t take the aluminum foil off my head just yet. The robes and hoods are only the beginning. Meeting in caves and other hidden places, they plot out our destiny and fondle devices that the rest of us unwashed have to wait a few more months to see.

It is time to start a resistance movement. I propose a new secret organization to fight this! We must act fast, as there are already secret society members among us. Clinton and Brandon are both MVPs and Mobians (isn’t that sick? ). The Mobians Judie, Larry and Jenneth will surely unite with them to destroy us!

Are you with me?
