Computer club to hold 'nerd auction' for dates
PULLMAN, Washington (AP) -- Looking to recruit more women, and perhaps date some sorority women, the largest computer club at Washington State University hopes to hold a "nerd auction."
The idea is to trade their computer skills to sorority girls in exchange for a makeover and, possibly, a date.
"You can buy a nerd and he'll fix your computer, help you with stats homework, or if you're really adventurous, take you to dinner!" Ben Ford, president of the Linux Users Group, said on its Web site.
Ford acknowledged that some of the group's 213 registered members may not be ready for the auction block.
"The problem is that we're all still nerds. Let's face it, guys. If anyone's going to bid on us, we'll need some spicing up," he wrote. "And who better to help with that than sorority girls who like nothing better than a makeover?"
This all began as an effort to recruit more women into computer science programs and a public relations class decided to help.
"Our conclusion was that they need to promote themselves better, then specific ideas were presented to them," said professor Moon Lee, who taught the public relations class. "They made suggestions to work with specific groups such as sororities. Sorority groups tend to have a very good social network."
Ford, who has an undergraduate degree in computer science and is pursuing a master's in business management, has spoken to several sororities, but so far none has committed to the project. A call to the Center for Fraternity and Sorority Life at WSU by The Associated Press was not immediately returned.
Ouch.

YOU WOULD GIVE ME KISS IF I WERE ON SOCCER TEAM! :'(

Nerds: smart enough to fix your computer, too dumb to figure out that this was never going to work.

I remember a chick tried me to get me to write her biology essay, and didn't really offer anything in return. >:(

^well don't expect people to stick things in your rectum.

is that really making sense to anybody?

Nerds can still hook up with sorority chicks. They just have to be graduate teaching assistants that can affect the grades. Some Profs probably do those exchanges too but at a far lower percentage. Many sorority chicks really are as slutty as they're stereotyped to be.

most sorority chicks are fat.

they've got fat pussies. that's for sure :drool

Sorry nerds. You'll have to catch these sorority girls later on in life when they are rebounding off their 2nd failed marriage with kids in tow.

There are easier ways to pull a sorority girl than fixing her computer. Its not like they're some sort of alien fucking species. They're people, you talk to them.
Sigh, honestly I've never had the whole fantasy of fixing a chicks computer and having her want to bone me. Its stupid and kind of degrading.

nerds need to stop putting pussy on a +10 agility pedestal

This is probably the truthiest thing ever written on this forum. Although I am not a highly-paid nerd, once I reached my thirties I was surprised at the number of phone calls out of the blue I received from girls I knew back in school who were then freshly-divorced.

all this imagery of nerds apparently tearing body parts off of girls and displaying them atop columns is starting to screw with my head. I'm not sure if it's even Euclidean for one thing.
personally I'd prefer it remain on the girl but if it has to come off, seems to me a pedestal is as good a place for it as any

Both of these posts are "real talk". :bow
I realized in high school that there was no point in competing with the cooler guys who got all the chick's attention. I got attention when someone wanted help with their homework, which was a blessing in disguise because it allowed me to really tell who wasn't worth my time. Lots of dude's are more than willing to fall for that stuff though.
