From time to time our Destructophone tip line is used by marketing folk as a way to get the word out for their latest product. Most of the time we're willing to oblige to a certain extent as their latest product is generally a new game you guys probably want to know about, but have you ever wondered about the other sorts of e-mails we get?
No, I don't care if you haven't. Hit the jump for a bedtime story anyway.
Since we've apparently garnered a reputation as the purveyors of
all things bespectacled and nude, we recently received the following e-mail:
A new website that you guys might find hot.
Here's the myspace: http://www.myspace.com/nerdgirlx
I don't think they've launched the website yet but I thought you guys might enjoy it. It seems very "nerdcore".
What tips us off that this is the work of someone trying to drum up exposure for a site exploiting a trend? First, the e-mail address it was sent from was so adorably alternative it would make the corpse of Elliott Smith stab itself in the gaping chest wound. Obviously I'm not the sort of guy who hands out girl's e-mail addresses over the Internet, but seriously, if it was any more alt it would have an eyebrow ring and would be posing nude using only R.O.B. the Robot as a cover for its bajingo.
Secondly, there's absolutely no character in that e-mail. If anyone other than someone attached to the site had sent it, they would have told us we were awesome or that the paternity test results were in, but when a person just sticks to the bare details about something as racy as this, you just know they're sending out tons of these things.
So why am I posting this, when I just outed the whole thing as cheap trickery? Well I know how you guys feel about naked, myopic women who share similar interests to yours. Honestly I can't blame you, but seriously nerdcore is the worst fad since hippiecore (now with MORE hair!) or that whole pet-rock-bestiality debacle back in the 70s.
Anyway, you guys now have the URL, so do with it as you will. Oh, and Nerd Girl X people? Yeah, I'm fully expecting a pony or a machine gun out of this deal. You know my deets.
Nex out.

Just my 2 gil.

"Rubella <3's Playing PS2"
If she thinks that's how you use a PS2, she might want to have herself checked for mental retardation.
I thought suicide girls *was* for nerds?
come on
they're not even trying.
I'm going to have nightmares now. thanks a lot.
sorry if she was the one you set aside for yourself nex.
You mean you don't wanna tap that mana?
Why are there rivets in her forehead?
But that site gave me the creeps O_o
On the other hand, some of them may have some fascinating STDs like "Vecna's dire pubic crabs" or "Otherwordly syphilis" or "Jenova Herpies" or something.
The actual .com website has a pong game you can play. There's also a form where you can apply to be a nerd girl.

We should harass that...
Although, I have my girlfriend for nerdcore. :]
I think the Mario Star hanging from my rear view mirror says it all.
Moving on. The Pong game is HORRENDOUSLY coded for that matter. You can scroll right out of the playing field.
Girls who knit are hot...go knit me a condom, bitch!
I do....but only because I hate pants.
That'd be competition! :)
