So, to avoid coming off as a guy who just knows everything (really I don't... just more than the majority of my peers) and can never be shown anything new, every so often I will pretend to be unfamiliar with something I am quite aware of.
People enjoy being the first to expose others to their interests - it's a bonding thing. That's why everyone here gets along so well *cough* *cough* *snicker* *snicker* And if I were to rob my potential IRL pals of these opportunities, I'd be even more of a recluse than I am now.
So yeah... can anyone else relate to what I'm trying to get at here? I know we're all beyond nerdy, so I can't be the only person who has been put in this situation before.
