30 geek movie love quotes
Slogging through traditional love quotes can be taxing, especially when you just want something that tingles that geek-loving robot heart of yours. We root for the geeky underdog to get the girl and hope the battle over evil ends in a big snog.

A peek behind the scenes of an Offbeat Bride on a wedding reality show

Chloe & Rudy’s chic goth historic mansion wedding
Let’s talk about the fashion going on here: black lace, Doc Martens, brocade tail coat, leather harness, and spiked Jeffrey Campbells — it’s a gothic wonderland of noir chic. Add in the backdrop of a haunted historic mansion and all the spiders, skulls, and pumpkins you could ask for on a dark night, and you’ve got this elegant affair (with Offbeat Bride vendor The Reverend D at the ceremony helm!).

To make it simple, the first identity is a bride and the second is a host.
Why reality tv is missing the boat with non-traditional weddings
