3. Trying To Solve Every Problem With A Screwdriver
In theory it looks great and can quickly prove that inside every geek there is a real man, but believe me, when it comes to plugged toasters, it can be shockingly disappointing No lady can be impressed that way. Plus, there is a huge possibility of killing her favourite pet, and no woman likes that. Just don’t ask me how I know. But every cloud has a silver lining; if your date is going wrong, she would feel really guilty leaving you on the floor while you wait for ambulance to come, which gives you more time to convince her why Doctor Who is simply the best. And you know that is true.
Actually, this idea fits to ANY tool. For God’s sake, we are geeks; we were made to dress up as Star Trek characters and to spend all our money on gadgets that DON’T work in real life. I don’t know about you, but I can operate a phaser or sonic screwdriver with my eyes closed. Drill a hole in a wall to hang a painting? It just cannot by done.

Nice, I like it. I have tries number two and prison time is a guarantee! Great read.
This article makes me want to try them out. What’s the worst that can happen. Most girls I date are Whovians. Do you really think we’d date people who are not?
Here’s a good one: It’s only ok to admit you spent last Valentine’s Day drunk watching all of the Companion Departure episodes you could stay awake for if you’ve already started dating.
Funny story though, my girlfriend told people for the longest time that we met over chatting about Doctor Who when she saw my T-Shirt at Target. The funny part of that story is we met through an online dating service, where coincidentally I started things off by asking her what her favorite episode was. (Her profile already specified that she was a fan, so it was all good.)
Fantastic article :)Well played, well played Sir.
