Poll: Geek strippers--turn on or turn off?

[UNCjigga]

Last night I met a young stripper who's a friend of a friend working at a club in Charlotte. My friend introduced us and we chatted for a bit after a lapdance. While at first I found it awkward to be socializing with a woman wearing nothing but a g-string, the conversation was good so eventually I could look past that. I never really considered strippers to be 'normal' women and never really thought I could become friends with one!

Anyways, it was getting close to closing time (2am...or was it 3am last night?) and she kinda just mumbled out loud to herself "can't wait to get home and fire up some SWG." I looked at her kind of puzzled and just said "huh?". Must be an acronym for some TV show I thought. She looked at me and almost blushed, and then confessed, "okay, I'm a bit of a Star Wars geek!" She went on to explain how a friend had gotten her hooked on "MMORPGs" (she knew the term!) and when she found Star Wars: Galaxies she was instantly hooked. I found it interesting, so I asked her about her character and her skill tree etc., confessing that I myself had become addicted to 'Asheron's Call' once and quit cold turkey when I found it sucking up so much time. Her character is a female Twi'lek, and from there our conversation went to Twi'lek dancers, Princess Leia when she was chained to Jabba the Hut and how this fantasy had even turned up in an episode of 'Friends' (I missed that one!)

So I guess the lesson is that when you meet someone on the Internet (either in a chat room, dating/friendster-type site or in a game) you really never know who could be at the other end...and hopefully the common perception that 'wimmin on teh intarweb' are really fat balding 40-something men will become more myth than fact!

Oh, and for any Charlotte-area guys interested in meeting her, PM me and I can tell you her stage name and the club where she works!

why would you judge a book by its cover?

I used to work at a company where the office and the factory was all combined. I met a whole group of your stereotypical factory workers who were really in MMORPGs and games of that kind. They were playing NeverWinter Nights at that time. By looking at them you wouldn't even think that they knew what computers were.
