just in the nick of time: 10 ways to a geeky girl's heart
I like tech and I can hold my own when discussing the latest intel chip, and don't get me started about macs and their... okay I have to stop here before this post becomes an anti-mac rant - the point: this is one of the best valentine's day posts I've seen in a while: Wired.com's Geekdad tells us the 10 ways to a geeky girl's heart.
Best suggestion of the 10? #5. Be able to have interesting conversations on any topic. This doesn’t mean that you have to be an expert in everything, but be willing to discuss unusual topics. Know nothing about fossils? Be willing to have her teach you what she knows, and ask relevant questions. If you try to learn something new each day, you’ll always have something new to talk about.
Some days I wish conversations would go beyond the usual 1. soccer 2. computer/iphone/mobile phone 3. job/government bitching, 4. guy's obsession (could be cars, or a particular genre of music only), or 5. the latest movie (which I have not watched.)
Not that they aren't fun, but most new-guy-friend conversations tend to run those treads. :\ Mental gymnastics are fun, and stretching oneself is good too.Libellés : technology
