And you married her?


Yeah, I just don't have geek conversations with her unless I enjoy having a blank stare.
That's what the forum is for :)

But she'll still wipe the floor with me on Puyo Puyo Fever, Puzzle Bobble, Samba De Amigo, Mario, and quite a few other puzzle, rhythm or non-Sonic platforming games.

Actually, I've never been attracted to geek girls much.

Well that's because they don't exist either.

Oh well. Congrats on your successful fusion.

There are some. There were some geeky girls that were in some of my computer science classes in college. Not all of them were true geeks, but there were a couple.

Somehow, when I was talking to a girl that I would consider as date/wife material, I don't want to be talking about that stuff. I don't mind some casual stuff, like casual Star Wars talk or something like that, but I'll leave the heavy geeks stuff to friends and acquaintances.

It is kinda funny how the different interests between my wife and I rub off a bit on each other though. I've gotten her more into gaming and she like Star Wars (someday hope to get her to try Firefly) and I will watch shows on HGTV, Food Network, etc with her :) I'll even help her pick out scrapbook paper sometimes because I enjoy the colors and design elements from some of the more modern-looking stuff they have now.

I wouldn't have been able to adapt. It would be divorce time. But I generally have a very hard time tolerating females. I chalk it up to living with a mom and 2 sisters and basically taking the heat from all 3 everyday. If you want to know what my mental state was practically like for many years, go watch Punch Drunk Love. It speaks to me so clearly. I'm not quirky and nervous like that character but I understand the rage.

But who knows. Maybe the aggression will die down next year now that I've moved out, but for the moment I find it impossible to imagine having a good time with any female, ever.

I watched Punch Drunk Love shortly after it came out on DVD, but for the life of me, I can't remember much about it...

I'd probably become like this if I, for some reason, had to stay with them for another decade.

Following up, god I love this movie. Easily in my top 3 comedies of all time, but most people don't see it as a comedy.

Yeah funny movie but what was the deal with all the gay clips down in the "related" section?

Anyway on the topic of geek girls, they do exist. I used to bowl with a friend and one of the other teams was made up of 3 geek girls. Not pretty but I guess they qualify as girls.

The only way to deactivate the ray beam and fight back the vampire alien threat is with a complicated series of foot patterns on the device's control board that looks remarkably like a DDR pad. We will all praise this man for saving our lives and buy him a mountain of stuffed animals.
