Geek Stereotypes

procman

hey all, a friend and i were talking the other day when a geeksquad ad came on, she mad reference to the fact that that was great yet untruthful advertising. she believes that the likelyhood of finding a semi attractive geek is like none. so in order to save our dignity i would like everyone who reads this to post a link proving otherwise. if you cant prove her wrong then send some good goffy pix of geekdom.

Yeah, I guess most of us are pretty nonstereotypical. Which begs the question - just where did this stereotype come from? Revenge of the Nerds??

Well, I haven't posted a pic of myself (for good reason), so the answer to that may not be as mysterious as you think.

There was actually an interesting discussion in one of the off-topic fitness threads where someone made the observation that the majority of us actually had relatively good diet and fitness habits as well. He or she made the point that our desire to better ourselves apparently extended beyond certifications into other areas of our lives as well. I think we're a pretty unique subset of the population. The longer you stay here, the more obvious that truth becomes.
