Hank, please reproduce. Do not let your genes go unreplicated, I beg of you. Please don't let Katherine's genes go unreplicated! You are both outstanding people and leaving no copies would leave the world a less wonderful place.

@thenightshroud77 How did 101 nerdy people not get annoyed by the fact that you wrote "your" instead of "You're"? I am annoyed.

Unchaste - having to do with or participated in sexual activity

It's pronounced "leh-kyoo-nah"

@Angel77777771 I am annoyed too. Yeah, OK, there was this time in my life where I too thought is was cool/funny/interesting to be full-blown nerdy, but now I have realized that it is not. Even nerds 'pretend'. It's sad but it's true. Pretentiousness is wrong, and therefore it is best to be nothing at all, just yourself.

@bbugarschi haha, salut! yeah, I was a little surprised to hear him mention Romanian, but also pleased. In any case, I had to correct the mistake :P

[bbugarschi]

a Romanian nerdfighter. salut :D

[daughterofeve7]

dear Hank, there is a word for shallow in Romanian, it's 'superficial,' which is a loan word from Latin, and you can only use it in an abstract sense, you can say a person is 'superficial' but you can't say that water is superficial, in which case you would use 'not so deep' :)

is the VI in your title's VIrgin supposed to be a pun on sex?

note; if not a pun, at least some nameless form of subtle hilarity?
