Let's get off the subject of whether we should be able to post pictures of ourselves being hot AND nerdy and actually have a discussion
( Read more... )
I immediately thought, "Wow, I'm a nerd!" when my roommate described to his date just how we watch anime and whatnot in our living room...
"You see, Dan has a modded XBOX, so he can watch media on it and stuff. But the hard drive's too small, so what we do is download the anime on our computers, then we set up SMB shares and stream it through the network...and there you have it..."
Last week a friend of mine (not a Hot Nerd, but should be) posted a quote in her LJ from an old Jack in the Box commercial. The ad depicts an 18th-century-style foppish nobleman, supposed to be the Earl of Sandwich, introducing various sandwiches to the assembled fawning courtiers. "Peanut Butter...and Banaaaaaaaaahna!" he exclaims shrilly.
This is the line my friend quoted, occasioning my reply that while I always pictured the Earl as more of a thick-necked John Bull type, I couldn't help thinking the ad writers must have known a little Restoration theatre (Wycherly's The Country Wife springs to mind) to create such a character.
My friend and I used to watch The Cable Guy and have recently adapted a line to which we say to everything. "Cat's pajamas". So now rather than say, "Wow, that's great...that's awesome, you're great, etc." we say, "That's the cat's pajamas."
i was on one of my gauntlet legends kicks and as i was out to dinner with my boyfriend one night, i exclaimed "i like food!" a la the valkyrie character.
I have several. Lessee...when we were oohing and aahing over the Fisher Catalog in undergrad..when me and my friends were making dirty science related jokes...when I had this conversation on a MUSH (RPG) online:(Kesara is me)

She, of course, was artificially impressed...
