    GO NERDS! Suck it Celebs!

    Beyonce & Jay Z Lose Bidding War for Epic L.A. House

    A 35-year-old Swedish video game programmer just got the prized house that Jay Z and Beyonce also wanted ... TMZ has learned.

    Our real estate sources tell us ... Markus Persson plunked down $70 million cash for a 23,000 square foot palace in Bev Hills.

    As we reported, Beyonce and Jay Z visited the house multiple times and made an offer but Markus beat them out at 70.
    Capitalization is the difference between "I had to help my Uncle Jack off a horse." and "I had to help my uncle jack off a horse."

    There is never a good time for lazy writing!

    Apparently JayZ/Beyonce also made an offer of $70 million... Persson's offer was "cash" though, so he just flat out bought it. and seriously, look at the photo gallery, this house is nuts.

    Notch's house...

    ps - the pictures also answer your unspoken question of "WTF is a candy room?"

    Wow. Reminds me of the Googlers' Twelve-Step Program: Anyone writing any sort of program should never be more than twelve steps away from food. (Which, in my opinion, is an excellent policy.)
