Why do techies paint their nails?

[ppaik]

I always wondered why techies paint their nails like black or silver? Any logical reason behind it?

Fruity.

 

[notfred]

they don't, in my experience.

 

[Infos]

Maybe it's a Long Beach thing

What freaky techies have you been hanging out with?

 

[Geekbabe]

I keep my nails trimmed very short,forget painting them.

We want it to look like we dipped our nails into the matrix.

 

[BlueApple]

Anti-static?

 

[Paulson]

I hope you're talking about your techie women friends

I've never seen a techie paint their fingernails, but some of the weirdo guys at our school have done weird crap like that before. I don't really care though, I guess if you want to go for individuality and look stupid while doing it, go ahead.

If by techies, you mean homo, and by nails you mean nails, then yes.

ppaik, that's a so-cal thing. I have a friend out there (Denny Martin, designs web pages) who does that. I told him it looks really freaky, and he told me I've been away too long.

hah, too good.

in general.....people are gay. yes. final answer

 

[arigato]

Well, I'm a chick so no one really thinks it's weird when I paint my nails

 

[Mltsao]

Why not?

Only looks freaky and weird cause the majority of the people dont do it.

Because they aren't freaky and weird..

only techies i know that paint their nails also have piercings, listen to industrial/techno, and are into goth.

i think them being techies is purely a coincidence.

 

[Sir Fredrick]

I used to paint my nails weird combinations of colors. Now I'm too lazy.

 

[thomsbrain]

Generally techies are other things, too. Like goth, which explains your nail experiences. Or jocks, whatever you want.

[ppaik]

93% of macho men secretly paint their toenails hot pink

 

[Sir Fredrick]

p.s. Girls get a kick out of guys who paint their nails. At least the ones I know do.

Is this number in any way related to the fact that 95% of all statistics are made up on the spot?
