Steve is adamant that there's not a single nerdy bone in his body and, honestly, Eddie hasn't seen any evidence of nerdiness so he buys it. Sure, Steve knows way more basketball and baseball stats than Eddie thinks any reasonable person should, but Eddie's not exactly the best gauge of how much is reasonable to know about games where you put balls in baskets or hit them with sticks. And loads of guys know about that stuff, right?

Anyway, it doesn't matter, Eddie is plenty nerdy for the both of them. But then they go to some convention and Eddie starts telling Steve what he wants to do for the day when Steve just...disappears. He hears Steve's voice yell out something that sounds like "The striped tomato!" and he follows it to find Steve practically drooling over the most ridiculous car Eddie's ever seen. He barely even looks up when Eddie comes over, asking Steve what he's doing, and Steve says, "It's the Gran Torino!" in the dreamiest voice Eddie's ever heard.

"The what what?"

"The Gran Torino! From Starsky and Hutch?"

"..."

"Whatever, it's one of the coolest cars ever. I had this replica of it when I was a kid that came with these little figures but I lost it when we moved and we couldn't find another one like it." And then he gets drawn into a conversation with the person who brought the replica along, rambling excitedly in a way Eddie's never really seen him do before

And that's the day Eddie learns his boyfriend is kind of a nerd, actually.

(He also then spends a while tracking down the same model toy Steve had of it and the way Steve's eyes light up when he gives it to him is the best thing ever)

#steddie #steve x eddie #steveddie #because I think Steve would geek out over cars and sportsball and things like that so he doesn’t think he’s really nerdy lol #steve harrington #also his grandma totally knit him starsky’s cardigan one year haha #clearing out my drafts today sorry!!!#this is probably one of my most niche headcanons 🤣#oh and Steve totallllly had a crush on Starsky but didn’t know it was a crush!#pizzaqueentxt #pizzaqueenfic

#i'm finnally happy with this specific era of baby nick i think he may have started t already maybe been on for a couple of months he's havin #fun with acne again he is dying inside but happy #he's like 19 here and still lives at home he's in school trying to do something #stefans dragging him to the autoshop with him to work and he's slowly coming to the conclusion he hates this #he liked it better when he was younger and was just goofing around with his dad but now he gotta work like what #plus he gotta hide that he smokes sdfghjk #he's been smoking since he was 14 he wanted a deeper voice okay!#stefan is aware and his just disappointed like child no #on the note of t! its lowkey filling stefan with so much joy cause nick looks so much like him he's proud for some weird reason like look a #mini me. all of his work freinds are geeked for em and its an adjustment because they new him so long but they poke fun at him and treat em #the rookie he is #on the record though nicks great with cars just its boring #Spotify #ts4 #simblr #sims 4 #nicolas ishida #my sims

Hi! My girlfriend @jaywijd and I started a band - it's called The Everfree Forest, we write indie rock songs with a synthy tinge. We just uploaded two songs onto our SoundCloud, one from each of us; Jay's is called Penguins on Venus and mine is called Stuck In Reno Part 2. You should check it out, it's very influenced by Car Seat Headrest and TMBG and Lemon Demon and the like.

Its so funny how desperately people want t/mkon to fit the nerd/jock trope in that order specifically when its not true for either of them. Failed on both accounts

#Tim is definitely nerdy and i love to call him a nerd in an affectionate-derogatory way #But he is not a stereotypical nerd at all #Ive ranted about kon being assigned jock before. But anyway #Imo theyre both way more geeks than anything else #They also contain multitudes—#txt #Like sorry to disappoint but canonicaly tim is way more interested in sports than like. Math or whatever #THE one big nerd thing he does is play dnd. But then also plays basketball tennis is a fucking car fanatic #Anyway. Multitudes. Definitely not just a nerd

Solved a REALLY interesting car case today (albeit with a lot of help) and I'm on cloud 9. This is why I'm doing what I'm doing.

#automotive #automotive diagnostics #this was so freaking cool #this brand new charger would not start #would “SKIM out" so everyone just kind of assumed it was an immobilizer issue (which helps defend against a car getting stolen)#But we weren't getting anywhere with that angle and it bugged me that the vehicle wouldn't go tf to sleep with the key off #finally tracked that down to what appears to be a short involving the ignition run circuit internal to the fuse box under the hood #it would keep the BUS awake and interfere with the data “handshake” that happens when you first start a car #wanna know how I know the ignition run circuit is involved?#if we broke the offending circuit by pulling a relay and started the car #then put the relay back in #then keyed the car off #the engine would keep running #it was so freaking cool...! lol #pardon me I am geeking out #shut up selk

This Month In History - March

This is quite a month for landmark pop culture anniversaries:

March 1, 1994: Mellow Gold released

In March 1994, the major label debut from Beck was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2014. Happy 30th MG!

March 2, 1984: This is Spinal Tap / Repo Man open

In March 1984, two bona fide cult films were released on the same day. It's kind of cool that both of them actually have sequels coming soon. Here is my piece I wrote about both films in 2019. Happy 40th TISP and RM!

March 6, 2009: It's Blitz! released

In March 2009 the third album by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2019. Happy 15 It's Blitz!

March 8, 1994: The Downward Spiral / Superunknown released

In March 1994, both Nine Inch Nails and Soundgarden released their best albums on the same day. Here is my piece I wrote in 2014. Happy 30th TDS and Superunknown!

March 10, 1989: New York Stories opens

In March 1989, an anthology film from three NYC-centric filmmakers was released with all three segments being about NYC. Martin Scorsese looked at an artist, Francis Ford Coppola looked at a girl at a hotel and Woody Allen looked at, well, an overbearing mother. The problem with most anthology films is they are uneven and some stronger than others. Here - all three completely ran with the challenge of making a shorter film to fit into this larger one. But Scorsese throws in more emotional longing in his segment than some filmmakers show in a lifetime. Happy 35 NYS!

March 11, 1994: The Ref opens

In March 1994, Ted Demme's second feature film was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2014. Happy 30th The Ref!

March 13, 1984: Heartbeat City released

In March 1984 the fifth album by The Cars was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2019. Happy 40th HC!

March 15, 1974: Get Your Wings released

In March 1974 Aerosmith's second album was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2019. Happy 50th GYW!

March 19, 2004: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind opens

In March 2004, Michel Gondry's best movie was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2019. Happy 20th ESOTSM!

March 30, 2004: Honkin' on the Bobo released

Speaking of Aerosmith -In March 2004, their 14th album was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2019. Happy 20th HOTB!

March 31, 1989: Heathers opens

In March 1989, one of the best teen movies of that era was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2014. Happy 35th Heathers!
