My friend Danica has a new book out, and CNN noticed:
Danica McKellar has a message for girls: Cute and smart is better than cute and dumb.
McKellar, who played Winnie on the 1990s television show "The Wonder Years," is coming out with a book, "Math Doesn't Suck," to encourage girls to get into math.
[...]
The book includes tips to avoid mistakes on homework, ways to overcome test-day anxiety and profiles of three beautiful mathematicians. "I want to tell girls that cute and dumb isn't as good as cute and smart," she said.
FTW, Danica! It's awesome that the Mass Media is paying attention to smart cute girls instead of spoiled stupid whores for a change.
I saw Danica at an audition recently, and she was really excited about this book coming out, because she wants girls to know that it's cool to be smart. If any girls are reading this, I'd like to let you all know that there is nothing sexier than a smart girl. The guys who go for stupid girls? They're fucking losers who will just break your heart and will never respect you. Being smart is cool. Being stupid is embarrassing, despite what you see on the MTV and the YouTube. Listen to me, I'm a wise middle-aged old man now. Also, get off my lawn with your big brains and your hot pants and your culture I don't understand (but understood as recently as the day before yesterday).
You can buy Danica's book through this kickbacktacular link to Amazon. My ever-growing science fiction library thanks you.
Inspired by Danica's observations, I feel compelled to close this post by quoting Dean Wormer: "Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life, son."
