so this is the girl who posted the ad on craigslist .. and I'd like to thank you for my newfound internet celebrity status. I will gladly send a picture to anyone requesting it. Also, the reason there is no pic is because this is a way of filtering out those who respond based on the picture alone vs. reading the ad.
@BeccaThePromoMami: I doubt it. It takes a special kind of person to live a 100% typo free life. When that typo happens to be the word educated it could mean they even have a sense of humor.
I'm sorry io9, as ridiculous as this Craigslist post is, why did you post it? Are we seriously so date-starved/lacking-in-girls-who-appreciate-Sci-Fi, that when one posts a personal asking about it, it makes a spot on your blog?
Good Lord, show some pride. If things are that desperate, go to the bar and pretend to be into football. You know you'll just grab the new BSG episode when it shows up on news-groups on the east coast anyhow.

@BullfightsOnAcid: Why don't they make those for grown men? All I ever see are Triple XL Stewie Family Guy boxer shorts. I wouldnt' be caught dead near that.
Hey, American Apparel... get on this. I'm sure the hipsters would eat it up!
I think we should more be focusing on how Nerdist this post is.
"no extra nerdy types
i am actually cute - so i like sci-fi ... who cares"
So from that I can understand that people who are into sci-fi are ugly, possibly too ugly if they are too into it, and that liking sci-fi is something to be ashamed of.
Hmmm - let's read b/t the lines - she's broke and will invite you over to her place all girly wiles and what not - so you're there with your stache and once the m-j-j is being huffed in full effect - you're rick-roll'd - big boyfriend (also broke) comes in from the next room - you flee (leaving remnants of your stache, dang!) - aaaaaand you're on the street with no m-j-j, wondering how fast you can get back to your pad to finish BSG.
@Grrsn Dn: Or maybe she will find true love GD? True self righteous I'm a nerd but no nerdy fellas love. If they do meet and sparks fly lets have Graeme be the flower girl.
