Slogan: Sign up and instantly search through thousands of Trekkie singles looking for someone like you.
Star Trek fans have broken into warring factions over what they should be called.
Apparently Trekkie is somewhat of a derogatory term and refers to zealous obsessives who still manage to break into a 3/4 squishy when they see the Priceline Negotiator.

Trekkers are a savvier lot, and legend has it, the term was originated in the 1970s to try draw a line between those fans jumping on the Star Trek band wagon, and the die- hards, who were there from episode 1- the Trekkers.
For those of you who haven't fallen asleep, join me on this space odyssey and see if I find a handsome young inner galactic virgin who might want to get in Uranus. I mean my anus.
Whatever.

I like a man bun. And yes, I am ashamed.
His Approach/Chat Up Line: "Go ahead. Stick your weiner in my bun."

BLOW BY BLOW DATE SUMMARY: dating reviews date trekkie
Ray and I bandied about some date ideas.
Dave and Busters, where he had a Groupon, to see The Brothers Grimsby…on his laptop, or to go to Ross, because he had some “slacks” he needed to return.
But the truth of the matter was that Ray didn’t want to go out at all.
Because he listed his ice cream maker on Craigslist and he was concerned he might miss a call.
“But you have a cell phone,” I protested.
“Yeah but I only listed my home phone in the ad.”
Adventures In Dating—Spotlight On Zombie Passions
“But can’t you just….” It was then that I realized, when you’re setting up a date with a Trekkie, and he gives you an out, take the out.
And so I did not go on a date with Ray, though later that night, at around 9:30, he did pitch me his ice cream machine at a discounted rate.
SUMMARY
And remember, kids, if you wanna go Deep Space 9, pull out, lest you spawn the next generation.
And so my quest for love continues.....
