Serrefine
Every year, the nerdy geeky kids get to embarrass adults like me that really can't write or spell. The kiddie blood sport that's called Scripps National Spelling Bee is carried live on ESPN and ABC, both owned by the Mickey Mouse company.
This year, the last nerd standing was 13-year old Evan O'Dorney from California, who beat the other 285 nerds to become the ubernerd that can spell words like "serrefine."
I can't spell any of the words mentioned in the last round.
