Beauty and the Geek So Round 2...

Beauty and the GeekSo Round 2 of Ashton Kutcher's "social experiment" has finally begun, and let me tell you, what an experiment! Teaming up a beauty with a geek to compete in social and intellectual situations can only mean one thing: a solid hour of pure entertainment. So here we have a new set of eight stunning yet not so bright (as evidenced by Brittany's "I like books that have pictures") ladies matched with their total opposites, eight brainy and, shall we say, not so aesthetically pleasing, gentlemen. I'm not sure for whom I feel more sorry: Chris, whose claim to geekdom was "has kissed only one girl," or Danielle, who thought the Red Sox were a California team. Did

Beauty and the GeekSo Round 2 of Ashton Kutcher's "social experiment" has finally begun, and let me tell you, what an experiment! Teaming up a beauty with a geek to compete in social and intellectual situations can only mean one thing: a solid hour of pure entertainment. So here we have a new set of eight stunning yet not so bright (as evidenced by Brittany's "I like books that have pictures") ladies matched with their total opposites, eight brainy and, shall we say, not so aesthetically pleasing, gentlemen. I'm not sure for whom I feel more sorry: Chris, whose claim to geekdom was "has kissed only one girl," or Danielle, who thought the Red Sox were a California team. Did I mention Chris also sported a "I put the stud in study" T-shirt? Let's get to know some of the other key players who had me laughing: Danielle, who has a "shoegasm" when she sees a really great pair of shoes, picked Karl, resident Dungeons & Dragons master, because he reminded her of Napoleon Dynamite. Brittany ended up with Joe because she beat Sarah in a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors. Oh yeah, and Sarah thought she won because she thought rock beat paper. Hmm. The ultimate character has got to be the big, curly haired Josh. I mean, the guy is willing to give up some of his intellect to get over his anxiety, so hopefully, with the help of his meds and teammate Cher, he'll work on his confidence skills. The guy slept in the closet because he was too anxious to sleep in the same room with a girl. Josh, your fellow museum-critic friends are going to be very disappointed when they see you act like a fool on national television. Well folks, it's going to be a wild ride, so I'll be sure to keep you up-to-date on all the shoegasms and nervous breakdowns coming our way!
