Nerds make better lovers.

Of course geeks make better lovers. Just ask my finace!!!

So, all this thread to learn what we already knew: poor geeks don't have a fiance. On the other hand, I am curious to know what's a finace.

I really need to do a spellcheck before I hit Submit... That should say fiance. As in the gal I'm engaged to.

For the record. I don't make a lot. I'm a government employee, but I make up to the small cashflow in caring, attentiveness, and understanding. It can be rough finding someone that will look past the geekiness, but it is possible and great when you finally find that person.

Actually, if you're engaged to a gal, then it should say fiancee. You are her fiance; she is your fiancee.

Or - given the the income discussion - she may be your financee.

and they just figured this out?

We read the manuals then demand field research to varify the authors findings. Some of us (I mean nerds) will dedicate our lives to prove/disprove a book.

I wondered if I was spelling that right. Thanks!

I wish she was my financee, but she's a middle school teacher. Neither of us is really raking in the dough!

For Scott Dennis, a 34-year-old teacher from Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, "geek" and "good guy" are synonymous - and he is both. Although some aspects of his personality make him what he called a "quintessential babe magnet" (former jock, drummer in a rock band), the real qualities that helped him land his girlfriend are the geeky ones.

"Do I know the difference between a knight and a pawn? Certainly," he says. "Am I familiar with the Four Move Checkmate? Well, maybe I am. ... But the truth is I'm a decent guy with diverse interests who actually offers authenticity in his relationships."

I dunno, this guy sounds like a poser to me. Maybe he has some geekly interests, but being intelligent doesn't qualify you as a geek. I'd say being a jock and a drummer disqualifies you. I'd say his woman likes him despite his geekiness, not because of it. Or maybe I'm just jealous because I'm not very athletic and can't play drums.


And Tiger Woods seems a bit geeky, but the man is the BEST GOLFER IN THE WORLD. And he is RICH. I think their definition of "geek" is a bit off. To quote Inigo Montoya (which is the sign of a True Geek), "That word you keep saying. I do not think it means what you think it means."
