Snigdha Nandipati wins US National Spelling Bee
The San Diego teenager beat eight finalists to triumph in the National Spelling Bee after studying up to six hours a day - but what was her winning word?
I was watching this while rowing at the gym yesterday and all I could think was “Why the fuck am I watching teenagers spell words and why is it on TV?”
Actually, I’m really glad that spelling bees are still popular and not overshadowed by **** like Jersey Shore, American Idiot Idol, and Modern Family.
