The Internet Just Saved My Marriage

Ok, not really, but Michael Lopp over at Rands in Repose wrote a very cool piece on understanding nerd behavior called The Nerd Handbook. The post is very cool even though Lopp does make the heteronormative and male centered assumption that all nerds are men and that they have girlfriends rather than boyfriends. What about us female nerds with girlfriends...would that make Lopp's nerd brain explode?

The Handbook explains my unnatural connection to my MBP, my control issues, and my love of games just to name a few. I am going to immediately email this to Lisa and then print out multiple copies and tape them to the walls of the rooms in the house where she tries to talk to me and my nerd brain doesn't allow me to listen.

*On a more serious note, I really do listen to everything that Lisa has to say...otherwise she might hurt me!
