because I'm awake and I felt like sharing
In response to this image, I found myself posting this in response:
You know what irks me, oddly enough? IMHO, geeks don't look like that any more. I don't know anyone that wears those kind of socks, geek or non-geek. Never mind any of those other clothes. We are many generations beyond Revenge of the Nerds.
Of course, as a corollary, I would never date or even be attracted to someone as generic and falsely beautiful as the blonde, either. I like my women with a little meat on their bones, not in heels, and I want *them* to be wearing that shirt above, of their own volition. Only other geeks can speak for themselves, of course. But I get the feeling that more and more, we want to date other female geeks. ;)
Having taken a look at the site, the featured women look a little more real and healthy...but the show itself still looks lame. It feels derogatory, as only further separating 'geek' as other.
Anyway. :)
