Want To Be On TV?
As I prepare to wing away from LA to spend a week at home for the holidays, sharp-eyed reader Teknomncr has brought this Craigslist ad to my attention. Someone is apparently casting a makeover reality show for gay geeks, 'ala Beauty and the Geek', here in sunny Los Angeles.
If you have a hard time "fitting in" not b/c you are gay but because you are a geek of sorts, then this show will teach you how to have "game" with other guys.And you'll have the chance to compete for 125,000! think Beauty and the Geek having a gay guy who has had to face the same stereotypes
There are actually several posts, (see here as well). I'm not sure if it's legit or not, but given the writer's strike is still going on, I can see something like this getting the greenlight.
Of course, I doubt most of our readers are really in need of this kind of makeover. I would suspect the problem isn't so much with a lack in social skills among gay nerds, as a lack of suitable dates. You need someone you can talk to, of course. And that's hardly going to happen in the bar scene, most of the time.
Still, we're definitely a part of their audience, whoever they are. Tell us if any of you apply!

This is for real and it is actually for "Beauty and the Geek." They want a gay contestant this time around. Weird...
