That really needs to happen

Starfield_Scribe · 06-11-2009, 10:31 AM

I know, right?

I found it interesting to find that Joss originally planned to play Badger in Firefly (that role eventually went, oddly enough, to one of our Dollhouse people, Mark Sheppard

) Would have been interesting to see...

Oh right

Forgot that Mark was that dude

Top 10 Geek Pick-Up Lines on Twitter Explained

All day yesterday, Twitter was flooded with folks tweeting each other "geek pick-up lines." The microblogging service's 140-character limit actually makes it a good format to exchange such information, as any pick-up line over 140 characters would qualify as more of an awkward monologue.

Using a rough formula of quality and times tweeted and re-tweeted, we've compiled a list of the top 10 geek pick-up lines from the discussion. Since not everybody speaks geek, we've also deciphered some of the more technical lingo.

Check it all out after the jump, and remember, while some of these lines are quite funny, you should never ever use them in a non-cyber situation.

10. I wish I was your derivative so I could lie tangent to your curves. (In calculus, a derivative is tangent -- meaning it brushes up against -- a curve.)

9. Mind if I put a Trojan on your hard drive? (A Trojan is malware that appears to form a legitimate function on your computer, but actually facilitates unauthorized access to your system. You would mind.)

8. You had me at Halo. (Halo is popular video game with those who don't have a traditional set of social skills.)

7. Is it ok if I ascii you out? (ASCII is a coding standard which allows computers to talk to each other.)

6. By looking at you I can tell you're 36-25-36, which by the way are all perfect squares. (Fourth-grade math joke)

5. I wish I was DNA Helicase so I can unzip ur genes, (Helicase is the enzyme responsible for unzipping the double-helix structure of the DNA that makes up your genes.)

4. Baby, I love you so much that if Joss Whedon were writing our romance one of us would be dead by now. (Joss Whedon is a writer/director who has a history of killing off love interests in his sci-fi/fantasy-based TV dramas like "Buffy, the Vampire Slayer.")

3. If I FlickR your YOUTUBE, will you Twitter my Yahoo? (Geeks also like crude puns.)

2. Roses are #FF0000, Violets are #0000FF, All my base are belong to you. (#FF000 and #0000FF are the HTML codes for red and blue respectively. The rest is from an Internet meme involving Japanese Engrish.)

1. My name's Vista. Can I crash at your place tonight? (Microsoft's operating system has a reputation for being unstable.)

Starfield_Scribe · 06-12-2009, 08:33 AM

Mmm mm and with what he's said, it sounds like it should be epic

**only dreaming** · 06-12-2009, 06:04 PM

Oh it all sounds exciting, I was glad to see theres a chance of Alpha being back next season.

Starfield_Scribe · 06-12-2009, 07:00 PM

Yeah, they can't just leave it there

**only dreaming** · 06-12-2009, 07:45 PM

Nope and I was a bit worried that they may have killed him in ep13 which we havent seen yet.

Starfield_Scribe · 06-12-2009, 08:18 PM

Oh I knew from the start we weren't done with him

**only dreaming** · 06-12-2009, 08:45 PM

I didnt think were but Joss said they rapped up the Alpha storyline in ep 13 so I didnt want him done with.

Starfield_Scribe · 06-12-2009, 09:01 PM

Well

Spoiler:

Isn't 13 supposed to be in the future? So maybe that's where it ends, but we've yet to see what comes in between...
