paige, just go with mort. because, within 10 years, he will be working at google, making big bucks, and, he will be better looking than he was in high school. just like the song says, love was meant for beauty queens, and high school girls with clean skin smiles, married young, and then retired.
Marry the nerd. His acne will go away. You can always teach him some social skills. He will work hard. And he’ll be rich. Football players end up brain damaged.
Maybe the guys who do get acne become nerds because nobody wants them so they find another outlet for their time?
I never thought good-looking boys worth another glance because they were probably too shallow anyway – they just spend their time admiring themselves and being admired, instead of working what’s inside their heads.
Being geeky myself, I had geeky friends in high school that used to complain about how the other popular or good looking people were never interested in them. When I pointed out several eligible people that my friends could potentially date, they weren’t interested . . . they didn’t want to date other geeks and nerds. Anybody else ever notice that phenomenon?

Morton Goldthwait and Paige Fox always remind me of Lio and Eva.

Cootie catcher? Airborne toxins? Emotional abuse? All of the above!

Why do the nerds always have acne? Doesn’t seem fair. At least his glasses don’t have tape in the middle.

I wonder if the person on the far right with the orange sleeves is a guy. No wonder he’s anxious to get rid of that particular valentine.

Paige doesn’t have the best luck with the handsome guys, but she hates it when it’s the other kind of guy that likes her instead.

Be nice to nerds. You will probably end up working for one.

You can not teach a nerd social skills. I’ve been trying for 15 years!
