a) Star Trek/Star Wars geeks arguing about tribbles vs ewoks is totally hot
b) Discussions about midiclorians is sorta hot if I'm desparate for some company and can tape his mouth shut
c) Man I could push all of these nerds into a locker by myself ick pthooey

[Hack&Lube]

Everywhere I go... there are closet trekkers. It never ceases to surprise me.

d) I bet one of these guys could fix my computer and get me some great pirated software if I fein interest in their nerdly discussion. I mean, they've probably never even talked to a girl (mom doesn't count), it should be like taking candy from a baby.

Considering I'm easily manipulated and taken advantage of by woman, you'd think I'd be more popular with my Star Wars obsession and all.

[Eastern Girl]

Where is the "All of the Above" option in that multiple choice Q?

I just like Star Wars! Not Star Trek though, I've never been able to get into that one.

you don't know what you're missing; here is our role model

Captain Kirk, Interstellar Stud

Captain Kirk’s Guide to Women is the first book to answer this question by probing deeply into Kirk’s character, charisma, and seductive techniques, making it possible for any man to model himself after the Casanova of the Cosmos. It is also the only warp-powered romance manual written with enough wit, charm, and humor to help the female of the species make first contact.

[CaptainCrunch]

Heh Heh heh he said probing deeply

[Hack&Lube]

I really should ask a girl out by telling her about how much she's going to enjoy it when I probe her with an inverse tachyon pulse from my main deflector array and then take her for a ride in on my saucer section as the subspace field from the warp nacelles slowly envelope us in our own warp bubble fantasy universe - all to ourselves. Then we turn on our metaphasic shields and bask in the glow of a sun going supernova. Energize me baby!

After reading that, you should just really ask a girl out, period.

actually, no, I don't think he should...for the sake of all the women out there

I manage a team of professionals at work and despite the plethora of "Leadership" training that gets pushed at me, you'd be surprised at how many situations get dealt with by me saying to myself:

"What would Captain Picard do?" (WWCPD)

It helps to think of your response in a Shakespearian/English accent in your head. Like a Ready Room chat with Number One.

[Thunderball]

You mean WWCKD

What Would Captain Kirk do?

Quick smart thoughts, rife with dramatic pause.

For Kirk the answer would undoubtedly be have "sex with it" no matter what the scenario.

[driveway]

For me the question comes down to would I rather be a Jedi or a Federation Officer.

hmm... let me think: ass-whupping galactic zen-mystic laser-swordsman; or tri-corder operating, red-shirt wearing, getting killed at the start of the second-act engineering nerd.

Tough call, that one.

Maybe if there's a beautiful woman... but Kirk wouldn't plow just anyone. He also had little remorse for using and abusing them. He also had no problem with beaming away after ruining a planet's way of life and wiping his ass with the Prime Directive.

Jedi cannot have sex or have women though, right?

Federation Officers have access to the holodeck. Imagine the possibilities.

Jedis can't have sex.

Easy decision... just don't wear a red shirt.

Edit: Hah! Flip said the exact same thing within seconds too!

I believe the prohibition is against Jedis falling in love and engaging in relationships, as such action can cloud judgment and results in expulsion from the Jedi order. As I understand it, there is no strict rule forbidding the Jedi from having sex, and in order to propagate the Jedi there may even be some encouragment towards inter-jedi mating.

A discussion of just this question can be found here:

I see your nerdiness and I raise you savage dorkdom.
