Ask A Sexy Nerd A Question!

I have been an Engineer for 35 years.

My go to Nerd Attire includes:

- a button-down shirt with TWO pockets because the left one is full of pens and my work cell so I need a place to put my personal cell. (Flannel in the winter because I was wearing it long before hipster douchebags).

- Cargo pants, because stuff.

- Safety boots that look like safety boots, because the ones that look like runners or dress shoes don't feel safe when I'm in the plant.

-I.D. tag / secure access on a neck deely (I know its a lanyard, Homer Simpson would call it a neck deely).

Sexy, eh?

YES. :D

Practical and comfy and snuggly, and those things are sexy.

I especially like the cargo pants because pockets were made for curious hands to explore. :)
 
The only thing I like owning a lot of is music and even that is getting to be a burden.

I have a lot of categories for my clothes. Around the house, dirty jobs, running errands, work, feeling cute, feeling fancy, feeling ugly, working out, feeling sexy (aka 'boob shirts'), too hot for clothes, etc., etc.
 
I go blue button-down dress shirt, khakis or jeans depending on the day, with my big dorky glasses that I can add safety side-shields to, plus my dark blue lab coat to finish the nerdiness off with a flourish :rolleyes:

Lab coat and safety glasses! 🤓😍

Now if you could just say, 'According to my calculations... '

They are NOT cargo pants - they are PURSE PANTS. Get real :rolleyes:

FloJo’s or Birks.

Lululemon‘s in basic black

Floppy top so you’re not sure what’s actually flopping.

Smart Glasses - The kind librarians wear with solid plastic tortoiseshell frames.

You may be right, but you'll never hear me use that term. Contents of my pockets today:

Keys to my car
Keys to my wife's car
Approx $11 in change and a stray $5 bill.
Ten foot tape measure
Piece of Lego (red 2x2)
Eraser
Swiss Army Knife
Kleenex
Allergy meds
Bolt, nut and two washers (1/4")
Dog biscuit
Pocket watch

So, are smart glasses like a smart phone?
 
Skatology: How the fuck could anyone find anything even remotely pleasant about something so gross?
 
When should i use 'may' and when should i use 'might'? :confused:

This is more grammar nerd than science nerd...but I use "may" versus "might" on a sliding scale of likelihood. If I think something is likely to happen but hasn't yet...I lean toward may. If something COULD happen but I'm skeptical, I'll use might.

But for the most part they're interchangeable, and usable in whichever way sounds best in the sentence you're in the middle of.

They mean the same, however MAY is present tense, and MIGHT is past tense of MAY.

May indicates higher probability, than might. Might indicates higher hypothetical than May.

“May” indicates that you are more likely to do something. I may go to the store means I probably will go to the store. “Might” suggests that you are less likely to do something. I might go to the store means it’s unlikely that I’ll go to the store. So while I may dance the hokey pokey with my daughters tonight (something we do most nights), I might hang up my clean clothes in my closet (something my wife claims I haven’t accomplished in five years).
