Sexiest Geek

According to Wired’s third annual Sexiest Geeks list, I am one of 2007’s sexiest geeks.

I’m unsure what one is meant to say when they receive such a prestigious and esteemed nomination.

Every year, Wired nominates the smartest, sexiest and most Wired men and women of the year. I’m up there with the sexy greats; Danica McKellar, Kary Byron, Amber MacArthur, Kary Byron (her clone), Morgan Webb, Olivia Munn, Leah Culver, Veronica Belmont, Felicia Day, Leah Culver (another clone), Kristen Bell, Alyson Hannigan and Joss Whedon. Who sadly seems to be the last man standing in the top-rated list. Whedon must possess some awesome fanboy powers or have hundreds of monkeys to do his evil biddings.

And then there is me, somewhere in the middle of it all, with 830 positive and 476 negative votes. Accompanying my photo is a short description which claims that I possess “mad CSS skillz” and that I enjoy playing WoW. Mad CSS skillz, that is such a nice thing for you to say… I mean, my code is really depreciated. I know, I’ve been wanting to release my re-design into the wild, but I’m trying to overachieve with it, do something amazing, which is a bit like trying to bend a spoon with your mind when you have no mind to bend it wit… Wait a minute.

Since when do I play WoW?

I’m pretty sure I have never played World of Warcraft, as I prefer FPS over MMORPG’s. So unless my WoW playing friends have drugged and kidnapped me for the horde or someone is posing as me on WoW (which would be a new level of weird that has yet to be achieved by my fakers/posers), I’m pretty sure I have never played WoW.

Does this mean you were lying about the “mad CSS skillz” too?

Update…

I have been cloned. There are now two of me present on Wired’s Sexiest Geeks of 2007 list. Can you pick which one is the cyborg?

Nice lipstick color, what brand/color? Goes well with the superb chassis. Smart? Can’t tell from a photo, but “stop the little red monkey” is original. Code me, and I’ll let you know for sure with at least a vote. Does Wired expect you to be all three, genius, sexy, and wired?

I do have to question why you think you wouldn’t be on the list?
Doh?
Or is it just that girl thing where you say “i’m not beautiful, talented and geeky”!
and we all shout loudly “Yes you are”

Kitta for el presidente, that’s what i say

You’ll always be my sexist geek, always. The false assertions and contrived factoids by others are not needed. Kitta will always be #1. I must admit however I do enjoy Marina (HotForWords.)

Well I have to admit that you are very pretty. You are a natural at it, as it would appear so on your Flickr account. (Yeah I peeked send the monkey to punish me)

Good luck. Blog more you write very well. Great new years predictions better than most pundits.

Any US election predictions? Do you have a super hot accent? Yeah well too many questions huh?

I would bet my head that the WoW thing was an strategy of the poster so that every WoW player says “WOW! WoW! *click*”

Or maybe not…but that was the most evil plan that came to my head xD

WooooHoooo! Mad CSS Skillz – Hell Yeah!

Wait…this is all just a carefully-crafted trap by the Little Red Monkey isn’t it?! He’s just trying to get you voted out of the way from stopping him taking over the entire planet! He’s so tricky! Hmm….

I’ve never played WOW, but a friend of mine has created a WOW character called Haydn who is apparently a boringly goody-two-shoes 60th level Paladin dwarf. Surreal life intimidating art.

Somewhat more surreally, his account was hacked, and everything I/he ownedwas stolen and sold, leaving him/me/ Haydn naked and unarmed. I hope life doesn’t imitate art too closely.

I didn’t know that you were a former model, that is totally new to me… So maybe the later must be the evil cyberclone? :O

Hmmm.

Kitta Clones.

And where, hypothetically speaking, would one sign up to order one of those?

[...] We know Geeks can be sexy; as Wired’s Annual Sexiest Geeks Annual poll (2008 results here) but not all Geeks are gamers – and not all gamers play wow - and apparently even one of the Wow playing geeks declared to be one of the Sexiest 2007 geeks doesn’t even play wow as she explains here.
