Chris March 11, 2010 at 4:47 pm: you guys seem like you could be really close friends. :]
Chumm March 11, 2010 at 10:05 pm: That’s a real historic situation, right there. Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy. Good work.
Mellissa March 11, 2010 at 11:15 pm: Hey Chris, thought you were pretty cool until tonight. I’m a female in the IT industry and when you make comments about how technology “scares the vaginas” and other disparaging remarks about women as a gender dislike technology, it promotes the “idea” in men’s brains that women are NOT technically capable. I feel the same way you do, love everything nerdy and have been in the IT industry for over 20 years. My job has always been made more difficult by having to overcome people’s bias towards women in this workplace. THANKS FOR BEING MISOGYNIST without even knowing it!!!!!
Brandi @ Frugal Farmhouse March 11, 2010 at 11:32 pm: Just watched you on Jimmy Fallon and you were hilarious!! I also am apart of the apple cult.. Love my Iphone, ok.. addicted.
Chris Hardwick March 12, 2010 at 5:42 am: Hey Mellissa! Sorry you took it that way!

1) It was a comedy show and not a lecture, so I wasn’t trying to make a grand point. Just being purposely stupid.
2) that was EXACTLY my experience as a youth. D&D, chess club, Latin club…I once asked a girl out and she laughed in my FACE and actually used the word ‘nerd’

Truthfully, I don’t see how what I said insulted you, but I do understand that this is something of a sensitive topic for you and for that I apologize!

And to everyone else, thanks!
Mary March 12, 2010 at 6:08 am: Hey Chris. I loved how you felt up Michael Moore.

I’m female and in the IT industry as well, and I know a lot of other women who aren’t into all the techie stuff. They pretty much snore or pretend to look at their invisible watch while listening to me…another female. So no offense taken here. It was all in good fun.

I’m attracted to nerds like you, then again I also think Kevin James is adorable.
Rob March 12, 2010 at 7:25 am: As my wife would say, “I don’t care if your IPad flashes or not, keep your pants on nerd!” … when we are left with copping a feel off Moore-Than-A-Handful, it speaks for it self.

You’re Funny Hardwick
Deltus March 12, 2010 at 8:12 am: Hey, Mellissa, it’s not about you. Take a headcount at any uber-geeky venue. The ratio still *heavily* favors the men-folk. I’m with Chris on this one. I was a nerd WAY before there was anything even remotely resembling “nerd street cred” or even “social peer acceptance”. Mind, the number of women truly relating to nerdism has gone up from nigh zero in my day to a double-digit percentage now. Don’t pretend, though, that nerd girls like you are the rule rather than the exception.

That said, I don’t want to get into a polar position with you or anyone else on this topic. Welcome nerdy girls, and here’s to hoping the ratio continues to approach male/female equilibrium! But we’re not there yet. My fingers remain crossed, however.
Shelby March 12, 2010 at 11:13 am: You were very funny and charming on the show. I bet Jimmy was jealous you didn’t feel him up as well.
vincent March 12, 2010 at 12:13 pm: hey there – on the show, the iPhone case you had looked cool. care to share where you got it? thanks!!
Chris Hardwick March 13, 2010 at 7:24 am: vincent: It is actually a Nerdist gelaskin! I had them made recently and they will be available to good folks like yourself very soon.

Here’s a peek for now: Gelaskin!
vincent March 13, 2010 at 12:24 pm: thanks, Chris! it looks awesome – I’ll be sure to get one when it goes on sale!
