The funny thing to me is that I've heard all of her remarks so far from people who were actually geeks. Dustin just can't defend his fandoms in the usual blustery fashion you'd use with a fellow geek.
Heh, I'm imagining Jess being on the receiving end of a rant like Kevin Smith's piece on the Lord of the Rings.

*glances at Jess suspiciously* You all don't suppose she's a proto-geek, do you? You know, someone destined to be a geek but tragicly deprived of sufficient exposure to geekdom in general to have had the chance to discover her true geek niche? Nah! She's just trying to humor them because they're Mark's friends. Evil Girlfriend must go down!
Simple Simon met a pieman going to the fair;
Said Simple Simon to the pieman "Let me taste your ware."
Said the pieman to Simple Simon "Show me first your penny."
Said Simple Simon to the pieman "Sir, I have not any!"
Half-elves and golems and nymphs, oh my!

Awww Jess is actually quite cool about all the geekery, but like Aldagrim said probably just more oblivious than anything else. Actually she reminds me of my mum when she confuses Star Trek with Star Wars.

Well, it's not like the names are hard to mix up. 50% similarity.

Seriously though she's been living with my dad and I for over two decades now she shouldn't be making these mistakes anymore.

*Shrug* We've had a computer in our house for about that long and my Mom still doesn't know how to use them.

...Yes.
But it is a pun, so that's a good thing.
Also, accidental double-post.

I've never played Katamari, so I didn't get that part right away.
