She sends it to me every time she has that conversation. It's how I know new girls have started working with her.

Where can I get a girlfriend/wife like that?

[–] Emi@ani.social 8 points 16 hours ago

Asking the same question, I have no idea how to meet new people.

Asked a guy I was on a date with if he liked Lego, and he straight-up laughed in my face and said "No, I'm not 7."

There are no single openly nerdy dudes in my area. Makes me sad.

(well, it actually makes me happy that cool people have successfully escaped this hellhole of a town and are probably living much happier & more fulfilling life)

That sucks. Meanwhile as a guy, I haven’t found that nerdy girl yet either. But those matches do happen. My coworker is a giant nerd. LEGO, movies, gaming, the works. She just moved in with an equally nerdy guy. She gave him the LEGO LOTR Barad-dur for his birthday laat month and they built it together. He gives her LEGO botanical sets.

Gotta love LEGO couples :D

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 4 points 15 hours ago

Same problem. Living in a hick town is a special kind of hell.

I don't like Lego, but it is for a horrible reason: I don't have the money and space for it. There are many things I could like, if hobbies didn't intersect with poverty.

😩

I want tomove to the country to have a big workshop that I turn into a lego town.

[–] SabinStargem@lemmy.today 2 points 11 hours ago

There could be something like Japan's kitty cafes, but with deadlier feet traps.

[–] MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.social 17 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

You'll find someone. Might require a bit of a car trip, but you'll find someone.

The hardest trouble in nerd dating is finding the nerd

[–] UxyIVrljPeRl@lemmy.world 13 points 18 hours ago

That's because we hide in our pillowforts

So is your wife single?

I also choose this guy's wife.

[–] bleistift2@sopuli.xyz 22 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I’ll get in line behind you.

[–] TranslateErr0rs@lemmy.world 6 points 18 hours ago

There doesnt need to be a line for you to get behind me in that situation.

Can you ask her just to be sure?

[–] MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.social 38 points 1 day ago (4 children)

She says go poach your own unicorn.

[–] Dagnet@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago

Fack! Thanks for asking!

I’d send them that clip of Will Arnet being corrected on LEGO Masters about the grammatical plural of LEGO. That would be my reply. At least criticize them with proper grammar.

[–] MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.social 1 points 9 hours ago

I see according to the company the plural form should be Lego. I'll try and change that in how I speak. It's still early for me so I don't think correcting my wife's grammar is a good thing to do.

[–] zloubida@lemmy.world 49 points 1 day ago (2 children)

One can't judge a relationship on an image alone but… there's a few redflags on this one. I hope for you they're false alarms.

[–] MajesticElevator@lemmy.zip 4 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

Checking phone 🙅‍♀️ 🚨

[–] Sabata11792@ani.social 26 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Those are the red flags I need.

[–] msage@programming.dev 20 points 17 hours ago

Those are checkpoints.

In no way does anyone that must be dragged out of the house have "golden retriever energy"

But I'm still happy for them

[–] MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.social 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I may not fit all aspects of the meme, but enough of it is on point that it's accurate for her.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 8 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

It's not about you, it's about the meme itself. The meme says she needs to drag her man out for dates but that he has golden retriever energy.

What adult cares what another adults spouse does in their own free time? Why is someone’s wife having so many conversations about this? So often they have to make a cringe “meme” to respond to these supposedly frequent conversations? Why is this persons wife straight up attacking other women and saying their spouse is unfaithful as if that is somehow the obvious outcome of thinking Lego is nerdy or whatever the point was

This is made up
