The Nice Guy

September 27th 2006 10:58
This is male prototype number 5 and the last instalment in this series.

Mr Under the Radar

No, its not Gaelen from Big Brother. This is the type of guy that generally doesn’t get much space on my blog. He doesn’t need any.

He’s shy, he’s nice and he really likes computers/ warhammer/ science fiction. You’d laugh but then you’d feel like a bitch because he is basically a good person.

He can most likely be found at some dank underground computer lab, where everyone has a permanent green tinge to their complexions and everyone speaks in html code.

Often when you get to know these men, you realise all the great things they have to offer. As a result of not being good looking in high school they have compensated by developing exceptional intelligence perhaps verging on ESP or at the very least a high level of skill in painting teeny, tiny miniature battle creatures in different colours of moss.


Often these guys make the best dates, but you might need to give them a freakin huge neon flashing sign saying 'GEEK, STOP PLAYING POKEMON CARDS AND PAY ATTENTION TO ME BECAUSE I LIKE YOU' before they get the hint.

Does anyone else have any ideas on how to grab the attention of Mr Under the Radar?

A wise old someone from the computer programming section of Borders (I happened to trip over a book whilst I was on my way to the Business section, no wait, the magazine section...) gave me some handy advice on snaring that nice guy; Mr Under the Radar. Here are three bits of advice that you should never leave home without considering...

1. Invest in your own copy of An Idiot's guide to HTML or A Dummy's guide to C Programming. So when you run into him at Games World, you can WOW him with your newly learnt geek lingo. Another option is to buy a pocket guide, making sure to keep it in your handbag, so when your stuck for something to say, all you need to do is quickly take a peek into your handbag...pretend your looking for your lipgloss..and tell him that the standard ASCII table defines 128 character codes (from 0 to 127), of which, the first 32 are control codes (non-printable), and the remaining 96 character codes are representable characters!

2. Enroll in a Computer Science Degree. That always does the trick. You'll trick them into thinking that you also have the intelligence of a Pentium 4 processor. This may particularly work in your favour, if he ends up being your tutor.....HD's for the rest of the semester!!! Oh not to mention, potentially meeting a very nice companion...but think of the HD's!

And finally...

3. Hire out the past six seasons of Stargate and study each episode closely. Pay close attention to any secret hand shakes or signals and any one liners that you can throw his way to seduce and win him over.

You have just got to check out my pseudo-intellectual blog http://www.jakedanger.com because it's got a couple of posts on "Nice Guys vs. Jerks".

I hope it's not against the rules to plug my personal website here...

PS I am an ex Nice Guy; now I'm just middle-aged Has-Been (or maybe Never-Was...)
