#NerdsUnite: @FlyingWillow = amazeballs!

Alrite, alrite, alrite - a whole heap load of you have been asking where I got the feathers in my hair ... and straight up, these things are the tits. Double Ds!!!

I was a bit hesitant about posting on them when I got them almost a month ago, because I just wasn't sure how easy they were going to be to take care of, and I'm a super crazy low maintenance human being ... if they were a pain, I just wasn't sure how kosher for passover I'd be in saying something about them ... either way, I KID YOU NOT these are AWESOME!!!

First off .... look ...you can see mine right here ... or in like every pic I've taken in the last month - HA!

They're held in place by this little plastic thing that doesn't damage your hair ... at all. In fact your normal hair just totally grows in under it ... look ...

Dudes, I color my hair, and even touched up my roots a week ago, and was able to not get any of it on these feathers (haha I was super careful, but STILL!!). They are CRAZY AWESOME low maintenance. They literally just feel like real hair, and I kid you not - the SECOND I got home and saw them on, I was like omg omg omg these complete me in a way that I didn't know I needed completing. They're totally gonna be a trend. Dude, even in the last month - good lord, I've seen so many people in 'em. It's that visceral reaction of omg yes! Totally had it with these. They're just so rad, and so cool, but just add so much character to your hair again without damaging it.

My fellow SpiritHood buddy Felicia does 'em - and dude, look at some of these client pics:

They can totes work on any style of hair, and you can even flat iron them or curl them - literally, it's like having really gnarly non damaging highlights put in.

The only problems I've had were, I can't really brush my hair with them. I use a wide tooth comb anyway since I have crazy think horse like hair. So for me, that was nothing, but I can imagine for some with a soft brush it would be a pain.

Also, when you're making out with a boy make sure you tell him that they're in. He might wonder if they're extensions ... but if he pulls your hair really hard, make sure you tell him that they're in there. HAHA! Totally not kidding, and totally almost happened.

But yah! Felicia is based here in LA! She's not paying me squat diddly tuna for this endorsement, just like I said really effin think these things are rad, and super happy that they're low maintenance.

Dude, SOOOO RAAADD!! BAHHHH!!

Thanks so so so much Felicia!!!

#NerdsUnite: Meet @jeffw171, your nerdy sport-y lover!

Alritteeeyyyy then. So this duderino sent me an IM on Facebook last week while I was in Vegas asking if he could write for us. I asked him where his area of nerd-spertise was, and he said sports! Rad! We don't have someone of that! Took a look at his stuff, and dudes - totally didn't suck.

Nerds ... meet Jeff! Hit it!

When I approached Jen about an opportunity to write for her, she was more than willing to oblige and give me a chance to write for Talk Nerdy To Me Lover.  So my best idea for my first post was to introduce myself.

My name is Jeff Wolfson. I graduated from college not very long ago and have held a job in sports media since. I work for Mid-Atlantic Sports Network’s website MASNsports.com while also doing some writing on the side. In my years of helping to cover the Baltimore Orioles and Washington Nationals, I’ve learned probably the most important part of my personality: I’m a nerd that has a love of sports.

The nerd part of me is mostly hidden because I was always the athletic type growing up, but I always had a thing for video games, comic books and cartoons.  To this day, I still play video games, read the occasional comic book, and watch countless animated movies.

While writing for Talk Nerdy To Me Lover I will touch on sports from my take, but I may throw some nerd references in there just to keep my nerd credentials. I will have something new every Tuesday. Anyway, to contact me you can tweet at @jeffw171. I’d love to hear from you and get some feedback. You can also visit my personal Web site at www.jeffwolfsonsports.com. Looking forward to interacting with you!

Jeff will be posting every Tuesday. So feel free to tune in and check it out. Or not, whatevs - I'll just boutique direct target market you on Facebook either way ... and like stick it in your face and make you say Uncle. Does anyone even say Uncle anymore? Like is that still a thing? If I walked up to a 12 year old, and said yo! Do you still say uncle - would they even know what I am talking about? Wait, I shouldn't be going up to 12 year olds for anything ... at all ... ever. Am I still talking? Shut up Jen.

WELCOME JEFF!!!!

PS. If anyone is ever interested in writing for us, just shoot me an email with a sample post: JenFriel@TalkNerdyToMeLover.com I'm putting my manager hat on, and going to give everyone a day to post so we're not all freakishly random like we have been for the last year. Gotta orrgganniiiizzzeeeeeee!!! But yah! Look forward to hearing from you. HIZZUAH!!



#NerdsUnite: Ask That Nerdy Chick ...

I get asked a lot of absurdly random things by you wunnerful wunnerful people everyday - so I wanted to just start posting some of them to see if anyone else can relate, or help out with info if I can't answer ... etc.

I don't really know where I'm going with this, but I have a feeling you guys will throw some cool shit my way. HAHA!!! Here's one I just got on OkCupid ...

Quick disclaimer: In case you couldn’t already tell, I’m basically an idiot, especially when it comes to women. Hence the questions…

I guess I’m curious about:
1 – How on earth am I supposed to introduce myself to a girl without it being a completely humiliating and regrettable experience, especially in a bar? What’s an opening that is likely to hold your attention – interesting without being corny?
2 – Is there any chance whatsoever that a girl could be seriously interested in, or attracted to, a guy who is openly awkward around women? Or is feigned confidence the way to go?
3 – How important is a guy’s job or work ambitions to you?
4 – How big was the biggest, um, erm, ‘guy’ you or your friends have actually seen or dealt with in person? (Long story why I’m asking...)
5 – What do you like doing with your mutual, non-romantic male friends?
6 – To what extent is mystery important in a guy? Are guys who reveal almost nothing about themselves likely to hold your interest for long?
7 – Do girls essentially prefer being the more mature and controlling person in the relationship, or do they prefer a guy who ‘knows what he wants’ and all that?

Thanks for all your help
Nick

Hey Nick! First off, thanks for reaching out, and being so brave and candid. I'm just going to address all of these in numerical order to keep it nice and pretty.

1. The best line you can have at a bar is no line at all. No like literally. If a girl is sitting alone at the bar, I GUARANTTEEEEEEE you she's just as much looking for you as you are her. We're animals remember? We still gather at watering holes. Do you come here often? And whatcha drinking are kinda lame. I would literally just sit down next to her, or as close as possible, and say hi. Follow the K.I.S.S. mentality of keeping it simple stupid. We appreciate the honesty, and it certainly keeps your stress level down as well by not having to come up with something cheesy.

2. I think an awkward guy can be absolutely adorable. I am personally very very very attracted to confidence; life is reflective. I can sniff dudes out that don't own their shit, and its a big turn off. But that's me! If you're awkward own it! Find an awkward chick and go and have awkward babies!!! Be you. Period. End. Of. Sentence.

3. For me, what someone does professionally is huge. I don't care how much money you make or anything - I will only date someone that is following their passion. Again life is reflective, I can't handle people that work 9-5s and hate what they do, it alters their energy and we won't vibrate at the same level. So for me, yes - this is HUGGEEEE!!!

4. Regarding size? This one is a biggie, hahaa no pun intended. I lost my virginity to a huge dude. Like definitely top 3 of the biggest I've seen. Never busted out a ruler, but had to be at least 8 with girth. Penis size is an interesting thing, and another thing you have to own. haha literally. but seriously, when I was younger and less experienced, I only preferred guys with smaller penises - I'll say smaller being anything in the range of 4. Those were the guys that I wanted to date because it hurt a lot less, obviously. Now though I am able to have an orgasm from penetration, and anatomically speaking - I can get off easier with guys that have a bigger penis. I say big as anything above 6. However, I have dated guys with smaller penises and been able to get off as well. It's not a deal breaker if a guy has a smaller penis, but if you have around a 4, I would definitely start honing your ability to go down on a girl. If you can master that, it makes up for everything. Literally. Everything. (click here for more information on the female orgasm)

5. Eat wings and drink beer. HAHA literally, I'm a big beer drinker - and I just like to kick it with my guy friends. Nothing special.

6. Honestly there is no mystery anymore - social media killed all of that. I can find out your likes, see your pics, family, friends, anything. So if you want to be mysterious, I wouldn't add someone right away on Facebook to sort of let it all organically fold. But I dunno, I'm kinda a freak of nature in the regard that I just don't care. It makes me no more or less interested in someone. I actually find that I am more attracted to someone once I have sufficiently Facebook stalked them. Total turn on seeing you living your life. MMM Me likey!

7. Again, life is reflective. I want a guy that knows what he wants. I run a business and a brand - I make decisions all day, everyday - when I'm on a date, I want to turn my brain off. Don't ask me where I want to go, don't ask me what I want to do. My awesome is organic and goes everywhere with me. I prefer guys to take control, but in an honest way. Be who you are, know what you want, and share that with me.

Thanks again so much for reaching out! Hope this helps!

Hi Jen, got a question for you.. if this "guy" comes to you while you are at work, in retail, and is like, do u want to leave this job, and hands you his card. He wont tell you anything about him, or his company, or the job, or where it is, or the name, or the site, or what he wants me to do.. does that smell like a scam or a fraud.

 1:56pm

no. id call him and ask what he was about

might be time to switch things up

 1:57pm

I called the BBB

his number is fake

 1:57pm

*it

 1:59pm

dont worry about it dude

just ask yourself, why am i looking this hard into another job

Seriously nerderinos ... life is waaayyyyyyyy too short to be spending even a minute of it doing ANYTHING you are not absolutely and absurdly in love with. Seriousllyyyy!!! Dude, if I can do it, I ASSURE you anyone else can. So yeah, bottom line - it sucks that this dude was apparently a whackadoodle noodle, but if you went and put that much effort into finding out more info on him, maybe it is time to look for another job. =)

Hope this helps!
