Why Geeks Rule

March 6, 2006   

Ok, some geeks definitely don’t rule. But I’m talking about the closet hottie, the off-the-beaten-path cutie who was never insanely popular with the ladeez (or guys).

Why do they rule so much? A couple of friends and I have discussed how our respective S.O.s, despite their obvious attractiveness and overall coolness, aren’t considered the regulation studs that everyone and their grandmas pursued relentlessly, and why it’s better that way. It’s great because usually, these guys* are just as good looking as the so-called hotties (and sometimes, even better), but because of some stupid social dynamic or an intrinsic shyness, they don’t have big heads over how awesome they are. And they don’t even know why we — the ones that can see through the stupid social blindness that seems to inflict most people — think they are so blazing hot. Which in turn generally makes them nicer because they haven’t been able to coast through life on their looks alone — not to say being incredibly good-looking makes you mean or anything like that, because that’s not true either.

Anyway.

There’s really no point to this post. It was just a random thought about how great it is that we think our S.O.s are awesome + hot + humble/clueless about previously mentioned awesomeness and hotness.

Note: I say “guys” because I am a straight female and so were the friends I was talking to at the time, but this applies to the women as well.

Natalie Portman wants you to suck her [bleep]

Natalie Portman on SNL.

Yeah, yeah, I’m sure half of you have already seen it, but this is for the other half who haven’t yet. 🙂

ETA: Looks like it’s been pulled from YouTube. I’m sure you’ll find a way to watch it nonetheless.
