nerdalicious

This week's column is about NerdaCon, an event hosted by Columbus State University's Campus Nerds.

The first NerdaCon, held in March, had 1,300 attendees. NerdaCon v2 will take place this weekend. The group is hoping for 2,000 people.

You guys should all check it out. Given my obsession with stilettos and club music, it might seem slightly odd I'm recommending this event, but I've always loved nerds. I might even show up in costume.

While we're discussing matters of nerdiness...check out this article about what a guy's videogame console says about his relationship style. A sampling:

PlayStation: Your guy is sophisticated, intelligent and willing to wait for a good thing. He's also a mover and shaker who knows the right people.

Wii: Your guy is fun, physically fit and cognizant of your needs. (Of all the consoles, the Wii is often believed to have the most games that appeal to both sexes.)

Xbox: This analysis is my favorite. Why? One sentence: "These guys are passionate about gaming and that transfers into the bedroom as well."

Who's ready to score?
