Looking for love in Alderaan places

By not4geeks - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I went out on a first date with a cute guy. Turns out we won't be going on a date again because I didn't know the difference between "Star Wars" and "Star Trek." FML

How do you not know the difference? YDI. I'm a girl, and I'd dump you for that. It's proof positive that your interests clash.

Guess the Force wasn't with you

Answer me this? Have you lived under a rock since your conception? That's not geeky. That's common knowledge. Battlestar Galactica is better than both anyway.

Not really an FML. It's not like you'd been with him ages. You went on one date, found out you weren't compatible, and so didn't date again. Happens all the time. Do you complain and whinge about every single date you go on that doesn't work out? Unless of course, the FML is that you don't know the difference between Star Wars and Star Trek. In which case, YDI.

tbh the guy sounds like a real loser be glad u got out while you did!

come on guys give her a break. why would she need to know the difference if she did not care. all she needs to know is that they are two different things, which she probably does. he was probably asking the differences, which she does not need to know if shes not interested

Most people know the difference. Doesn't make him a geek, just makes you seem ignorant.

I think everybody's being pretty harshhh! I didn't know the difference either up until pretty recently. people who say she's being ignorant, it's a part of pop culture that she isn't into! it's not like she didn't know the difference between Iraq and Afghanistan or something like that.
