Talk Nerdy to Me


Now I have to admit I'm a little bit of a geek.

Nothing too embarrassing, but I do have annoying tendencies to correct all my friend's grammar, mutter Harry Potter curses when in a bad mood, and quote Big Bang Theory from memory. Hot stuff, right?

Confession over, what I wanted to talk about today is the slowly emerging trend of nerdyness appearing on social networking sites like Facebook. I don't know if you guys have seen it, but more and more recently people are flaunting their geeky knowledge. And even cooler, using it as a pick up lines!
If you have no idea what I'm ranting about, don't worry. Here are some examples...

Harry Potter: "Are you using the Confundus Charm or are you just naturally mind-blowing?"

Star Trek: "I've been told I have the cool sexual prowess of a Romulan"

Mathematical: "You and I would add up better than a Riemann sum"

Pokemon: "Are you a pikachu? Because you are shockingly beautiful"

Super Mario: "If Princess Toad looked anything like you, I would have killed Bowser years ago"

Physics: "Like the ideal vacuum, you're the only thing in my universe"

I've seen awesome lines like these flying around online gradually more often. There's groups and pages specifically made for these clever little one liners. And quite frankly, it's a refreshingly comical and fun change to the norm. Who wants to hear the same cheesy, monotonous rubbish when you could have some charming guy display his interest in both you and intellectual puns.

What I'm really trying to say here, is keep it up! Any guy who walks up to a girl and uses one of these bad-boy lines, deserves some credit. I know it's personal choice, and some might argue that people shouldn't have to use pick-up lines to get their attention. But let's face it, if they have the confidence to approach you with a clever remark like these and you understand it, then it's bound to impress you. 

Alternatively, if you have no idea what they're saying, then you clearly don't share the same interests and it's ideal that you discovered as such so quickly.

Heck, if a guy came up and told me "If you were a Dementor, I'd become a criminal just to get your kiss..." Then he'd be sure to be in my good books.

Thanks for reading, over and out.

Too much

I would lie on burning coals, scorch my soul, if it spared  your feet from the heat. I'd devote my hectic days, and sleepless nights, to making yours just a little brighter. I would give my every cent, happily spent, to make you smile for a while. All I ask in return is to always feel beautiful, wanted, treasured, and adored. To know, without a single doubt, that I'm yours. Your  one and only, now and always. So tell me, honestly, am I asking for too much?

Sinking Ships

Can somebody please tell me how to fix this sinking ship? Because I'm exhausted. I've given my all to bailing out these frigid waters, fighting against the relentless surge. I waste every breath, every thought, every effort, to confining an endless tide. I cannot stop. But I'll drown out here, cold and alone, if I don't  pause, find the source and fix this broken vessel. So teach me how to plug the gap before it kills me.

Chasing Sunset

Tonight, for whatever reason, I found myself pondering what the hell I was doing... In life, in love, in my job, my personal aspirations, my family and my friends. I wasn't necessarily worrying, or spiralling, or caught up in a depressive mentality. Alas, I was simply contemplating where I was right now, and what was next for me. Whether I was on the right path, where it would lead, and when I would get there. I was too focused on my feet, on where my journey was taking me, that I temporarily forgot. I forgot to enjoy exactly where I was right now, no matter where I was going or where I had been. But thankfully, life sent me a little reminder. As I passed the upstairs window, consumed by my own thoughts, I was met by the most beautiful sunset I had seen in a long time. The sky was on fire, and it sparked a fire in me. Instantly, I knew that I wanted to seize this moment. Without a second thought, I grabbed my keys and jumped into the car. And so began my journey to chase the sunset...
