Yeah I couldn't believe hairy got so many votes!!

I voted adorkables, obviously.

What would 'adorkables' mean exactly? Who or what would meet the necessary criteria?

Laughing out loud We were at debating yesterday, waiting for the bus to go home, and were rating couples on how nerdy we thought they were. This reminded me of that. :$

Cute boys that are geeky/dorky!

Like Seth from The OC. Or Tobey Maguire.

Or any boys who wear glasses probably, or who come across as clever.

Hmm. *strokes beard* So what about a boy who's geeky with glasses, but also hairy? Would he come under adorkables, hairy, or both?

Ooh, tricky!

I guess he would have to be filed under both. And cross referenced.

'Adorkable' is a made up buzz word for ropey nerds like me and you, Aaron.

Haha! All quite intriguing. The workings of the female mind feel almost within reach.

I love that site's colour scheme.

Ropey - a bit rough, not up to standard.

Or ropey - a bit like rope.

Ah, well, quite possibly then.

I know he's quite a twat, but this picture makes me fancy AA Gill a bit (and he doesn't even wear his glasses!):

The article belonging to that picture is hilarious.

Is he holding hands with Marco Pierre White?

Yes. They're utterly mental, but strangely cute. (Don't try to merge 'cute' and 'mental' into a new word!)

Nice sig, btw!
