Random Geekboy: you'd be so proud of me...moving out on my own, moving up in the [workplace] ranks (slowly but surely), and SLOWLY working up the nerve to actually ask a human female out! *gasp*
Random Geekboy: so I've got [person] at work trying to help me work up the nerve
azurelunatic: Is there any way to level up before asking?
Random Geekboy: she's been all "Geekboy, go ask her out. Go ask her out now."
Random Geekboy: level up?
azurelunatic: ...I hang out with too many gamers.
azurelunatic: [specific good advice]
Random Geekboy: hmmm...
azurelunatic: [more specific good advice]
Random Geekboy: very true. But I hate the concept of scaring her away nonetheless. Dammit, why do I always go to you for relationship advice! damn you Geekboy brain!
azurelunatic: Because I am female and have had relationships and I like geekboys?
azurelunatic: And I know your penis size.
Random Geekboy: very true.

Ha!

I may be a random geekboy, but I no longer need advice on how to ask someone out!

(Because I'm not going to be asking people out anymore, of course.)

[azurelunatic]

Heh. Yep. And congratulations are due.

I LOVE this -- probably all those years lusting after geek boys!

I can't remember when I last liked a guy who was not a geekboy.

Perhaps Ben A., who I despised because of all his fag-hags (though I didn't know that's what they were then; I just thought he was being an insensitive prick not noticing that all these girls were gaga for him).

Hey.. LJ user "random_geekboy" isn't taken. Should I use one of my invite codes for it?

(I already know that just by posting this means it'll be gone before I do.. c'est la vie, I doubt I'd do it justice)

Re: not taken

[azurelunatic]

Well, it's not gone yet...
