A MATH BOY AND A PSYCHOLOGY GIRL WALK INTO A BAR.........

It is hard to play it off as one of the cool kids when you are out at a bar and you get in, what appears to be, a heated debate about articles in JAMA, empirical science of the field of Psychology, and mathematical formulas that generalize (or don't, in MY view) to the entire public. It is even harder to play it off as one of the cool kids, when the conversation gets so loud that the guy playing acoustic guitar stops mid-song to listen. This might not have been the coolest thing to do, but it is one of the best conversations I have had in the longest time.
I understand these conversations are not cool when you are drinking with other people that have no clue what you are talking about, and for that I shall be branded with the word GEEK. So if you see me walking down the street with a big red "G" on my sweater, don't think it is a gang sign and send Mad and his d.b.g. after me.
