    The closest the UK has to any TV that is nerd related is the Gadget Show. And that show is bollocks.

    You lot may scorn G4TV but be happy you have it. You could live in the UK, the land where its going to cost more to buy your pasty hot.

    Buy your pasty hot??

  • KarlKarl Registered User regular
    They're going to introduce a tax that means it costs more to buy your pasty (like a cornish pasty) or roll (like a sausage roll) hot then if its cold.

    But anyway, back to Geek and Sundry. Is it any good, rage at weirdos creeping over nerd girls aside?

    Oh, I thought you were using some weird idiom

    Australia has Good Game. It's pretty good! And the female presenter (Hex) is pretty awesome and knowledgeable!

    I like Hex, I think she's super pretty and really cool.

    That said when they first replaced Jung with her I was kind of annoyed about it because I thought Jung did the job just fine; Hex was basically them trying to get a hot chick on the show. Granted, she does her job well and she doesn't spout memes every 10 goddamn seconds like some OTHER ladies in similar roles, but I dunno the initial replacement kinda bugged me.

    There are very few celebrity geeks that I like.

    Most of the ones I do like are professionals/enthisasts in their fields, who also happen to be engaging media personalities.

    I have seen this.

    It's like a really bad episode of top gear. But with computers and minorities.

    Your better joke would have been "I fed your tamagotchi the food you made, it's dead now."

    I like the comments about geek/nerd culture, because I like watching as it becomes more "accepted". The Big Bang Theory is a mockery of what geeks actually are, but the fact that it exists means more people are thinking "ah those loveable weirdos" rather than "those disgusting weirdos!"

    So people have finally forgotten about Revenge of the Nerds?

    Neil deGrasse Tyson is the best of humanity. The only way to produce a better person would be to have Neil and Clooney merge.

    Fyndir is right.

    That would have been pretty funny.

    The black guy used to be from CBBC (they did all the kids shows from the BBC). And I'm all "NOOOO DON'T TAINT MY CHILDHOOD MEMORIES WITH YOUR TERRIBLE SHOW.
