the littlest nerds
Of course nerds reproduce. This is what happens: kids with better outfits than anyone.
Star Wars is an epic adventure story for kids anyway. I have no doubt these two were having the time of their lives at the San Diego Comic-Con 2008 Nerd Prom.
Putting a little girl in a Darth Vader mask is just asking for trouble. Particularly a hot pink one with a tiara and veil. I think of my own toddler daughter’s determination and wilfulness and occasional tendency to cling lovingly to Dad’s neck around my throat. Miss Vader’s brother appears to be a teenage mutant ninja turtle with a lightsabre. I’ve probably guessed wrong.

Oh my, that is hideous.
That’s beautiful.
They’re just kids dressing up!
And nerd parents gives a vastly increased range of possible outfits for kids’ dressup.
