I don't get this stereotype. At all. I can understand nerdy, lonely, fat, etc. as characterizing a good cross-section of the Slashdot readership. But smelly? Come on! If anything, wouldn't highly technical, detail-oriented people be clean freaks? I know I shower at least once every day...

This explains why so many of the vegetarians I've met are such fucking idiots!
