Being a geek, I have some nerdy crushes. Admittedly, they are mostly just harmless little things that give me that slight hint of fangirlness that I greatly fear and generally hide from, but... eh, I figured I'll write them out so one day one of them might google themselves and find they have a fan.

(If this blog does not seem interesting to you, please just close the tab now, I realize this isn't the best topic I have ever blogged on, but it's my blog. Anyway, inb4 trolls.)

CleverAdivsor Not only does he play a mean Malphite, but he has an awesome voice and a very distinctive laugh. Some might wonder why I like Clever, but, despite my Nidalee love, HotShotGG isn't on this list. Truthfully, it's all about attitude. Clever is not only funny and great to listen to, but he is really a nice guy! He never talks shit about the enemy or blames anyone on the team. He celebrates when he wins and just gets a little silent when he loses, but never gives up! Now, if he only played Nidalee...

Day[9] What Starcraft loving female doesn't love Day[9]. While Clever is a really nice guy, I think Day[9] puts a new meaning to being kind. He is the sweetest guy out there, which I bet is hard considering his sense of humor! He is all about being good to everyone and always doing the right thing. Plus, he is absolutely hilarious! He can brighten my mood anytime and always brings a smile to my face. And let's not forget that he's also tall (yay!) and quite well built! Though QXC probably has the best ass of any Starcraft player out there (I am being 100% serious, that guy has buns of steel). Admittedly, my nerd crush on Day[9] goes back to about three years ago. I watched SC games before I even really knew much about it because of him and he's one of the main reasons I put so much time into SC2 beta. Sadly, I gave up on becoming good enough to be recognized by my skills, so maybe my cute baneling cosplay will work? Or terran mech outfit? We'll see!


Actually, I guess those are really my two biggest nerd crushes right now. For some reason, I find almost nothing sexier than someone who understands how impressive getting my first Blood Queen 25 kill blackout drunk (and pulling top dps) was, can understand my enthusiasm about Nidalee, applauds my Minecraft castle, and cries with me over the one hour guild tournament game I lost due to being just one baneling short. I must admit, one of the reasons I've been spending so much time at the AFK Tavern recently is that I love fellow geeks. It's probably close to what a guy feels like at the Playboy Mansion... minus the boner.




Edit:

I logged onto League of Legends today and found this awaiting me:

There is a disturbing lack of

Stork, Nada, and Bisu.

5/5 anyway, but I'm still a little sad inside since you seem to be missing out.

Ya, most guys aren't gonna relate to this blog much.
Aside from the whole Bisu thing. But his looks are simply unfair.

Yeah, I don't know of too many females involved in the SC scene...

Not that it would matter much, they'd have a hard time comparing to Korean Pro-Gamers.

and don't come back until you have a nerd crush for him as well.

This is just a surreptitious attempt at getting Day[9] to comment here isn't it? He probably won't though, as he is taken :/
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Bisu and Boxer are deff my crushes, they're so awesome even though they aren't zerg.
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

CleverAdvisor is a fun streamer. I enjoy his Cait and Garen play. Also plays platformers while waiting in between queues. I definitely approve of his Desktop Background.

Sorry, I'm pretty sure I'm taller than Bisu by a few inches, that's an automatic -10 points.

No, not really, but a good one is better than a bad one!

I don't need Day[9] to comment here, you're absolutely silly.

Also, since when is he taken? Rofl.

Depends obviously. Just like there are ass men and titties men.

Riku have you met QXC in person? And where is my nerd crush, you know you love me.
A man is what he thinks about all day long.
