Discussion About Reddit and Child Pornography...
For those of you who didn’t know, the hugely popular message board Reddit explicitly banned all forms of “suggestive or sexual content featuring minors” (child pornography) on February 12th. The media blog Gawker had this post about it.
I began to see a lot of false and/or misleading claims in the comments section that what Reddit had on the site was not *technically* child...

Response: xoxs
One thing I can’t stand is my stupid cousins (ages 13-17) getting “married” to someone new on Facebook like every two weeks. Not because of any kind of sanctity of marriage argument but just because it’s fucking dumb. I’d say something to them, but then I realized I’d sound like lame old man Nick who can’t appreciate people having fun.
Damn kids and...

Christian Cognitive Dissonance
I purposefully don’t write about matters of religion on this blog because I want it to be fun and light-hearted, but this particular thing has been on my mind and I wanted to put it out there.
A female christian friend of mine posted this link on her Facebook page earlier today. For the tl;dr crew, it’s an article about how christian women should be “respectful of”...

Muse
What is it with nerds/geeks liking Muse?
For example, about a year ago I was scrolling through the music list on my friend’s laptop and it was basically nothing but anime soundtracks and video game background music…except for the entire Muse discography.
This isn’t limited just to him. I’ve seen other nerds (both in real life and on the internet) claim voracious...

Rainbow Hair
I follow a few tattoo/body-mod blogs here on Tumblr and often I see pictures like this one:
Don’t get me wrong, this is cool and certainly pretty, but have you ever seen someone do this in real life? It all goes to shit ~24 hours after you dye it. All the colors blend like when you did finger paints in kindergarten and smooshed all the colors together.
I was standing in line at the...

A Conversation with Chris about Nerds [[Reply]] →
Perhaps my views weren’t articulated as fully as they could have been. In my defense, we were having this conversation on Google Chat, which is not exactly the easiest place to flesh out an entire argument.
For the record, it is not as though I do not believe there are female nerds, or I believe female nerds are somehow less than male nerds. In fact, I referenced a real female nerd...

A Conversation with Chris about Nerds
Chris: I was a little surprised at the number of women there, to be honest.
Nick: Why’s that?
Chris: Just didn’t seem like there would be many there. I guess I underestimated the appeal of sci-fi across the genders.
Nick: I don’t think it’s just sci-fi. It seems like DragonCon is an all inclusive nerd fest. Even on their website they call it a ...

I was joking with my super-Christian friend about...
I'm flattered you think I've remained that innocent. Emphasis on past tense
Huh? So you've touched boobs in the past but no longer?
I have, in fact, reached second base. Just haven't done it in a while.
That's sad for you. Boobs are awesome.
Mmm, how poignant that is.
