Asked a guy I was on a date with if he liked Lego, and he straight-up laughed in my face and said "No, I'm not 7."
There are no single openly nerdy dudes in my area. Makes me sad.
(well, it actually makes me happy that cool people have successfully escaped this hellhole of a town and are probably living much happier & more fulfilling life)
Don't LEGOS themselves say the suggested age range is 9-99??
find a local hackerspace or maker faire. or sit on the side of the road with something partially disassembled.
There probably are, they're just at home playing video games and shit so you're not meeting them.
Well, now I'm doing the same thing!
Same problem. Living in a hick town is a special kind of hell.
I don't like Lego, but it is for a horrible reason: I don't have the money and space for it. There are many things I could like, if hobbies didn't intersect with poverty.
😩
I want tomove to the country to have a big workshop that I turn into a lego town.
There could be something like Japan's kitty cafes, but with deadlier feet traps.
That sucks. Meanwhile as a guy, I haven’t found that nerdy girl yet either. But those matches do happen. My coworker is a giant nerd. LEGO, movies, gaming, the works. She just moved in with an equally nerdy guy. She gave him the LEGO LOTR Barad-dur for his birthday laat month and they built it together. He gives her LEGO botanical sets.
Gotta love LEGO couples :D
You'll find someone. Might require a bit of a car trip, but you'll find someone.
The hardest trouble in nerd dating is finding the nerd
someone should build something like the last starfighter, where after 100 levels of kerbal or whatever it becomes a dating site.
That's because we hide in our pillowforts
