a place where I can expose all my nerdiness

My genius, if I can call it that, is to combine a whole load of averageness into one compact frame. You might say there were millions like me, but there aren't, really: lots of blokes have impeccable music taste but don't read, lots of blokes read but are really fat, lots of blokes are sympathetic to feminism but have stupid beards, lots of blokes have a Woody Allen sense of humor but look like Woody Allen, lots of blokes drink too much, lots of blokes behave stupidly when they drive cars, lots of blokes get into fights, or show off money, or take drugs. I don't do any of these things, really. High Fidelity
