on my freaking favorite quote in the history of Nerdfighteria

February 10, 2010

Before I post this, I’m probably going to have to explain that I am, in fact, a nerdfighter.  To explain nerdfighting would take much time and brain cells that I am not in possession of (well, maybe I am, but I don’t have the patience either).

Here’s the idea:  go to http://www.youtube.com/vlogbrothers

Everything will become clear soon.  :)

The quote:

“There are at least two distinct meanings of ‘hot’:  there is the, like, normal human definition which is that ‘this individual seems suitable for mating’. And then there’s the weird, culturally constructed definition of ‘hot’ which means, ‘that individual is malnourished and has probably had plastic bags inserted into her breasts’. Like, I think if you went back to the 18th century and asked a 15-year-old boy, ‘Would you like to marry a woman who has had plastic bags needlessly inserted into her breasts?’ that 15-year-old boy would probably be like… ‘What’s plastic?’ ” (John Green, February 24th, 2009)

This is pretty much one of my favorite quotes ever.  This isn’t exactly the most subtle way of introducing my friends and relatives to Nerdfighting, but it’s one of the funniest ways, and I’ll probably post more quotes as life goes on.

Okay, bye.
