Fuck shopping.

Milk is so gross I can't believe people drink that.

For me, it's not bad, depending on where I go. I don't go to conventions though. I definitely feel weird going into a game or comic shop but nothing outwardly mean. I see the attitude a lot on the Internet, namely places like Reddit or even various places under the Gawker umbrella. When I played WoW a lot, I had to…

I'm an introvert and it feels like I'm lazy because I feel like I don't have the energy to go out but it's not laziness. I do a LOT of projects and stuff at home and no one I speak to would ever think I was lazy. It's just that being social drains me, while being alone (and doing stuff by myself) energizes me. Then…

As in introvert with social anxiety, and someone bullied as a kid, I would make no such assumption! But you have a point. This thing is, while I can understand someone being mistrustful, it's still on them if they have any interest in making friends. On top of that, being bullied is not a good excuse to become a bully…

You were using hyperbole. But I digress...

Also it took him a little bit to understand this introvert/extravert thing, I explained the concept of what recharges introverts versus extraverts and he gets it now. He will also encourage me to stay home while I encourage him to go out and we can just do our things without feeling guilty or that we have to entertain…

That doesn't sound like an introvert/extravert issue, that sounds like a maturity issue!

I'm like your wife. For a half hour I am sweating profusely and hiding behind my boyfriend and really leaning on him...but he encourages me and after a while I am at ease and having a good time. I don't get recharged like he does, and will have to take a few days off from social things but I am glad that I am able to…

This article describes my boyfriend (extrovert) and I (introvert) completely. Yes, if plans get knocked around, it's disconcerting and I try to adjust but it's hard. And I really would just hole myself up on my studio for days on end (I do) if given the choice. My boyfriend and I are lucky with our situations.…

I absolutely agree with you, I am just saying that its just not that big of a deal, I don't think. It seems that there is a loud majority of boys (and girls) who make an effort to reveal to the masses the poseur among them, when they could just ignore them or even befriend them and see what they are all about, or…

I don't know, I never read those books. The thing is, even though you were generalizing, it was still a generalization and very patronizing. My reading comprehension is just fine, perhaps work on your communication skills?

Shit, my boobs are pretty awesome but they are terrible tools for geekdom. They refused to level up my blood elf no matter how much stroking I do. And forget debating who the best Star Trek captain is (Piccard), they have nothing to say, they just sort of sit there being all awesome and stuff. They are unaware of any…

Talking about Star Trek technology possibilities and application in real life is one of my pastimes! *high five!*

Why would anyone (above the age of 18) fake an interest in anything? If someone proclaims an interest in something, why not take them at their word? If they don't know as much as you, why not give them materials to check out that they would love, or join them in discussions? I looooove A Song Of Ice And Fire, and I…

Hear, hear!

Someone who is attractive and has bad vision so she must wear glasses...they can never be a geek? Really? Well then, go fuck yourself :)

Oh I like how you assume that because someone is a girl that the only games they play are Angry Birds, Candy Crush or they read baby sitters club. So...good job proving the point of the article and being part of the problem.

Thanks for posting that awesome article!
