Your new blu-ray player is set up; that nasty virus is off of your computer and for Christmas your geek got you all the Battlestar Galactica DVDs and insisted that you watch them immediately. We're so thoughtful. Has he fulfilled his purpose? Is it time to go back to jock cock? No. We're a different breed, and we admit it. We're sorry about the Battlestar DVDs. Geeks have their downside, that's for sure. There's a good chance that half the time you wont know what we're talking about. Earlier, I bored my girlfriend out of her skull talking about two new naturally occurring minerals discovered to be harder than a diamond. (No, really. Check it out here.) I thought it was the coolest thing ever. She thought diamonds were pretty and that I should get her one.
Communication, or lack thereof, is usually the root of all problems in any relationship. If you can't understand your geek, you have no chance of making it work. I've compiled a simple translation table to help you understand what your geek is really saying.
"You won't believe the new Ubuntu distro! It has [...] come see!" | "You're important to me and I like sharing things with you."
"I'm so pissed they canceled Stargate: Atlantis." | "When I'm upset, I like to talk to you because I trust your opinions."
"Your curves on your body are as smooth and graceful as a sin(x)/2." | "I think you're hot."
"I wish our dot product were zero so my vector could be normal to your unit circle." | "Lets fuck."
| "I love you more every day."
Obviously, I'm exaggerating. But only slightly. Sometimes the things we say can seem as though they're a different !4n9u4g3. We aren't trying to make you feel stupid. We're just different.
Luckily, you don't have to know what an integral is to know we care.
We promise to let you watch the new episode of What Not to Wear even though Dr. Who is on.
- If you'll show us your boobs.
Because we haven't seen that many.
And we're trying to come up with a function that describes that cute little thing your nipples do when you get cold.

Do you know how to play magic the gathering?
ReplyDeleteDo you know how to play Magic the Gathering?
Haha.
ReplyDeleteWhat if the girlfriend is geeky one?
ReplyDeleteLike... me?
"We have to go see Star Trek on opening night. You need to dress up with me!"
Let's go see a movie - it'll have explosions and I'll be scantily clad. Don't wear a red shirt.
Why do you assume we females aren't geeky?
ReplyDeleteNext post. I'm already writing. It'll take care of the flip side.
ReplyDeleteAh! I'm also going to the star trek opening with my boyfriend! And we already got the outfits!
ReplyDeleteI need to find someone to go see star trek with me. So my question is, why can't two geeks be together? At least then more things would make sense.
ReplyDeleteI'm really hoping this blog will take off, because I like your writing style, and maybe it'll help me pick up the lady's?
ReplyDeleteP.S. Stumbled and Bookmarked.
Thanks, Konraden. I appreciate it. I hope so too!
