Apparently it is unexpected if you are semi-attractive and "nerdy". I am not a super model but I know I am attractive to some. And I am also quirky. I wear a ton of fandom stuff. Half of it is so obscure most people wouldn't realize its a "nerd" thing unless they were in said fandom (or on Tumblr, hahaha).
I was shopping at this electronics store recently and it was funny...well at least for my husband. I had on one of my fandom shirts and some BLUE chucks. Anyways, I was talking tech with a sales person (surprise I am actually NOT an idiot when it comes to tech) when he asked what I do for a living. He was like 6'5"...I was in my flat @$$ converse...I came up to like his nipples. So for him to be reading my shirt he had to kind of come down to my level which is just awkward (can we say PERSONAL SPACE).
Him: Oh, so you work for a Doctor or insurance company?
Me: *still playing with the potential purchase* No, I work for (Insert company name).
Him: Oh...but your shirt says "The Doctor Medical Group", I just assumed...
Me *nervous laughing* Um...no...it's kind of a...nerdy thing.
Him: What is it?
Me: So have you heard of this, uh, show called Doctor Who?
Him: No
Me: Oh
Him: Oh wait is that that British Sci-Fi show, with the Blue Box?
Me: *turning red* Yep. *pointing to shirt* see the logo...its the Blue Box
Him: Oh my God you are a nerd...and adorable
Me: *Crimson* Hahahaha, thanks...I think.
Him: I like your shoes too *wink*
Me: *thinking OMG* Soooooo do you have this in stock?
All in all he was actually super nice and a GREAT sales person. Very helpful. I am just a weirdo hahaha.
