Dating advice or disaster in the making?

When you think 'geek', is your first thought 'marry one'?  If so, you may enjoy this 'how to' from blogger Leslie Sobol over at AMD (yeah, the processor manufacturers).  If, on the other hand, you are yourself a geek, at least you can be happy discovering there's a cheat sheet on how to date _you_.  Mostly for your paycheck and job security, I suspect, but hey, this makes us mainstream!

And yet, and yet... I find some of the Cosmo-level advice sadly viable.  Not just for geek-bagging, but for snaring any spouse through faked interest and false intentions.

You don’t really have to understand what these questions mean, but
throw them into the conversation and then act interested when he
answers. (Actually, this works for pretty much any topic.)

In short, if you muster up sincerity, can't fake it.
