    I said somewhat the same thing and got ripped in the general forum.

    Wasn't it you ripping me? You didn't want to join this group because I originally called the group 'the geek squad' so you blasted me for it?
    I didn't blast you or maybe I did in tongue and cheek. Also...the Geek Squad here in the retail stores are terrible. The "Geek Squid" is a much better name.

    Normally I am a jerk to everyone. It's a gift. It is also a wonder I actually have kids.

    Yeah, the geek squid is a much better name, and I love our mascot 'Squiffy'. It's good to have you on board.

    P.S I still haven't seen an episode of The Big Bang Theory yet

    Penny is amusing because they avoided the female/blonde stereotype of making her unintelligent and she gets highly annoyed when she doesn't understand something (which I can sympathize to when it comes to science). Compared to reality tv...it's good. Compared to Jersey Shore...it's PBS brilliant.

    I have a simple test for any girl who shows up wearing a pair of Tina Fey glasses and claiming to be a geek. I throw the word "gorram" into a sentence and watch for recognition...

    See I thought I was a little bit of a nerd, but I have never seen an episode of Firefly.

    Do you think this is the same backlash as people who dislike "gamergrrls"?

    Don't think so, "gamergrrls" don't typically last long in a group of all gamers...they just can't sustain the gaming enjoyment of true girls who game (like myself). Unless they are calling themselves that, but only play f/b games... o_O

    I own an Xbox ;) Was a PC gamer for the longest time, just got way too expensive to keep up with the technology...but I still play BG, NWN and HOMM3 every now and then.

    Real gamers...that's a relative term isn't it?

    Yep...there are good players and then everyone else.

    I just got a Asus g73jh...so I have been wondering what I should load on it.
