Are the people there joking or are they REALLY trying to tell the kid that he's not normal because he's really good at spelling?

I'm The Very Model of a WriMo Individual

This is a song based off of "Modern Major General" from Pirates of Penzance. Errol of NaNoWriMo wrote it.

Here're the lyrics.

I am the Very Model of a Wrimo Individual
My writings they have varied from historical to fictional
To write a novel in a month some find it quite deplorable
I talk about my novel but my friends they find it borable.

When writing I prepare myself in matters that are practical
From scoping out locations, doing research on the factuals
And stocking up my room with snacks and food and sources of caffeine
My cellphone is turned off. I'm now in nanowrimo quarantine.

His cellphone is turned off. He's now in nanowrimo quarantine. (x4)

This year will be the year when my book wins me praises accolades
I'll travel all the stores my novel forefront on the book displays.
In short, my writings vary from historical to fictional
I am the Very Model of a Wrimo Individual

In short, his writings vary from historical to fictional
He is the Very Model of a Wrimo Individual

My mind a brim with metaphors my tongue can spit out similes
But when I put my pen to page my brain locks up and hand will freeze
The more I think, the more I'm stuck, the more and more I get upset
And then I go online cuz I cannot turn off the internet.

I search the forums to keep up on all the nanowrimo news
I find I'm stuck for hours. ^ Why am I so readily amused?
I go on chat in hopes that I can find someone to word war with
But they're absorbed with talking 'bout their drama and relationships.

But they're absorbed with talking 'bout their drama and relationships. (x4)

In fact, when I know what is meant by "Word War", "ML", "Plot bunnies"
And when it comes to writer's block there's none can beat my expertise
In short, my writings vary from historical to fictional
I am the Very Model of a Wrimo Individual

In short, his writings vary from historical to fictional
He is the Very Model of a Wrimo Individual

Technology's my weak point and I spend too much I must admit
I think I lost my outline, doesn't matter wasn't using it
I'll photoshop a calendar with writing goals I can achieve
And think of awesome book covers with bios for the inner sleeve.

I go to meetings, socials, writing sessions, any chance I get
We talk about our stress and all the words we haven't written yet
In short, I can imagine myself sitting, typing furiously
And one day I'll attend that fearful night of Writing Dangerously!

And one day he'll attend that fearful night of Writing Dangerously! (x4)

I'm very good with words, I know so many to regurgitate
But people think my only skill is how I can procrastinate
In short, my writings vary from historical to fictional
I am the Very Model of a Wrimo Individual

In short, his writings vary from historical to fictional
He is the Very Model of a Wrimo individual!

Books

I have way too many books...Well...There's a healthy amount in my room, but there's no more room for them. There are about forty books on the dresser. The library books live on my desk. There're three shelves. About twenty books and a million other things live there. I have a book case, which is completely filled with books and CD's. There's a shelf above my bed, which is also full of books. And, during the day time there are books on my bed. Those get transferred to the floor at night.

A reason for all the books is that if there's a series I like, I try to get the books. So all of the series ends up jostling for any available surface. Also, a lot of thick books. (Like Les Miserables or Lord of the Rings. And all of the Redwall books take up room.) (There's a box for the Harry Potter books along with the wand, and several other Harry Potter-related stuff under my bed...And probably a few books.)

Does anybody have any ideas on how to fit more books into the room?
