I am looking for a few good, preferably nerdy quotes to send to a gentleman I would like to woo. Something a little better than the "Roses are #FF0000, Violets are #0000FF, All my base are belong to you" line. I thought of something like "My CPU and your GPU should get together and process" but it sounds lame writing it down.

If it help, postcard in question is this mofo... http://www.zazzle.com/greetings_from_the_internet_postcard-239488352782365221

    It's dangerous to go alone. Take me.

    I could probably come up with more, but it gets pretty specific fast, like "You're better than the metal blade", even though that one is a lie, since nothing is better than the Metal Blade.

    Oh my god, this question.

    If he is at all mathematically inclined, I have a really good one.


    Please simplify this inequality: 9x - 7i > 3(3x - 7u)

    Does he have specific geek/nerd interests that would lend themselves to topical quotes? Because that would be a lot more effective than a generic nerdy quote.

    3(3x - 7u) < 9x -7i I think they meant? At least I think that gives the outcome they're looking for.

    You're supposed to keep the i on the left-hand side.

    i <3 u

    the reason this works is because you switch the direction of the inequality sign if you divide both sides by a negative number right?

    If you know how to simplify an inequality it works, but asking them to solve for i will help a little if they don't.
