Beauty & the Geek, 6/8
Good challenges, although I would suspect nerds in general don't know much about cars either. Loved the girls' outfits in that challenge.
Supergeek is beyond description.

Okay - the "blonde" lingerie model is not the least bit attractive. And don't even get me started on her mouth and those horse teeth.

This episode was good for a few laughs, but I'm rapidly losing interest. Besides, we know how the story ends. Average Joe taught us that while you can convince a woman she's a shallow bitch for a few minutes on a reality show, you can't actually get her to change.

to be fair, i think we would all turn our heads if they walked by.. If some of the girls are 9s and 10s, the worst is what? an 8.5?

I don't know if it was intentional or not, but I'm glad that the winners ensured that the "couple" would get split up. That's what I would have done...nip that shit in the bud. I'm real sick of the reality-show "trend" of hooking up with somebody just to get yourself more screentime.
I thought it was funny how both groups were bagging on the interests of the opposite side. But it rubbed me the wrong way when the girls were appalled that the guys didn't "go out." Apparently, they don't realize that when you're a fella (geek or otherwise) "going out" doesn't mean somebody else foots the bill all the time and you're treated like royalty.

The brunette that was in the elimination challenge looks like a man from the side.
The exchange at the end between Richard and the other guy was really awkward. I did like the looks of the guys when the women took off their robes.

Of course, I have to admit that my opinions are unavoidably influenced by some of their personalities. I loved the dialogue about how "not going out" at least twice a week made someone a loser.

I'm with das. The whole overly "primped" look doesn't do it for me. This is probably because when you see a girl like that, you've got a pretty good idea about her personality and priorities.
Also, you know that after 30 and a couple of kids, it's going to be blimp country.

I was thinking the same thing. More logical would be to have the girls work on a computer... give them a monitor, keyboard, mouse, printer, etc. and have them hook it all up and get it running.

And by the way, does viscos = viscosity?

Nobody says you have to marry the primpy girls you know.
A few of the girls have the butterface thing going. Like the Sixers Dancer - fantastic body.

One of the girls/guys needs to repeatedly punch Richard in the face.

Argh, why wasn't Richard kicked off? At least the Erika and Brad thing is over with, but I thought she was one of the better looking girls there.
As for the girls being overly primped, being on tv probably has something to do with it. Whether they're your type or not, you have to admit they are way out of these guys' league, which is the point of the show.

GREAT line by a Geek after some Bimbo was describing her first sunburn at age 8...
