Are we seriously going to riff on fashion? Have we seen what the average nerd wears? Those shirts with "clever" sayings like "Can't sleep, clowns will eat me" or "The voices in my head don't like you?" Dakka, I'm dissapoint

I just wear chequered longsleeve shirts or t-shirts with clever sleep related puns on them...

I thought the usual nerd just wore tee-shirts and jeans, or in winter, long sleeved shirts and sweats.

But then, I'm not exactly in the loop either, what with having no body to wear clothes to begin with.

Jeans, various sweaters/hoodies, t-shirts, and formal wear for formal occasions. No witty sayings for me.

Who knows, they probably do enjoy a bit of summer sausage in their throats.

Maybe you hang out with immature women. Maybe you're attracted to immature women because you think they'll let you shpadoink them.

What I don't get is that they always go with the jerks. You try and be all civil and nice and they just look at you like you've crawled out of the mud, but some donkey-cave comes along and treats her with disinterest and it's

I don't get that either. I warned my sister that her first
(at the time, future) husband was a neglectful, abusive prick, and then a year or two later she divorced him because he's a neglectful, abusive prick.

Not that I remember. I just remember saying that people who call them "deldar" give me a face-punching related desire and the object of said desire is the poster using that facepalm inducing term.

Sorry...but both men and women tend to be attracted to confident individuals,and in many cases these "arrogant,self centered jerks" exude confidence.

It's a simple fact that regardless of what a "nice guy" you are,that if you can't make simple eye contact...or are stammering away like an idiot unable to carry on even a rudimentary conversation,no woman on earth...unless she is equally sad,is going to have anything much to do with you.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

I've no doubt that they do.

I readily admit that I,for the most part,was (and to some degree still am) one of those "jerks",I basically ignored woman or teased them and rarely went out of my way to pretend I was particularly interested in what they had to say.
I went through High school playing in bands,played football and seldom had a lonely Saturday night,same was true of my early twenties and so on.

I'm not saying I'm "proud" of being a "jerk',but it definitely placed me in a better posistion than simply kicking rocks and wondering why I couldn't get a date.

He did pretty good.




...Incidentally, I'm not advocating being "cruel" to women...I'm just saying catering to there every whim and running around at their feet like a puppy whining " But...But..I'm a really NICE guy." usually scores you zip.

To actually apply advice from The Love Guru, you really do have to love yourself before anyone can love you, especially if you want it to work. As far as body type goes, as a (modestly experienced, to be fair) participant in the fetish community, there literally is someone out there who will idolize you. For the most part if people would trust try a little harder (go the extra step in your hygiene, get a cool haircut instead of just having hair, wear decent clothes that make you look flattering) they'd be more than accepted.

Worship me.
