I Am the Queen of Science Blogs Hot Or Not

Nick called it first: Flags and Lollipops has "calculated" the hottest science bloggers on the Net using a "Hot ot Not" type algorithm. (If such a thing could be called an algorithm).

Well yours truly was voted the hottest blogger by a jury of her peers. Ego stroked? Check! No Date Tonight? Check! Still a Broke Grad Student? Check! Totally Nerdelicious? DOUBLE CHECK!

(Dear World Domination Diary: Phase 1 of Operation: Hearts, Minds, and Loins complete. Soon to move on to Phase 2, deploy talking parrot army with friggin' lasers on their heads.)

Yes, that's right, you're looking right at him (on the sidebar, at least). No? Go down a bit... ...a little bit more.... There you go. According to the blog Flags and Lollipops, yours truly is the third hottest science blogger (and the hottest male science blogger) on the internet. Yes, screw…
You may be aware of the $5000 scholarship for students who are science bloggers. Now the 10 finalists have been announced and you should go here to cast your vote. I have initially nominated (and will vote for) Jenna (Jennifer Wong) of Cyberspace Rendezvous which is, in my opinion, the best student…
Since my fellow SciBlings Shelley and Nick are both bragging, I figured I should chime in. According to Flags and Lollipops, I am officially the planet's second hottest science blogger. While I would have expected Tara to rank higher than myself, I feel quite honored. Thanks, to those of you who "…
Gleðileg Jól! Another blast from the past of Ye Olde Blogge You're in grad school. Yay. Now wtf do you do... Well, you need to jump through the hurdles first. Most places have some course and seminar requirements, you may in some cases test out of them or waive them, but think about whether you…

Dude, come on, we can be the prom queen and king of the science blogosphere. Just like the real thing, it'll be completely vapid and meaningless... but who cares!

Sounds good, but since I ranked higher than you I get to beat you with my scepter anytime I like. And PZ can be our foot-stool.

Is it a coincidence that the day that PZ goes on a "save the (insert noun)" craze is the same day that you win queen nerd hottie?

I think this is just liberal propaganda and sensationalism in order to placate us wee SB audience members.

Some of the uglier science nerds around here would appreciate it if you would quit reminding them of their plight.

Cheers.

Well,
since you have a history on this,
why not:
"Shelley does Tara",
or
"Shelley does Karmen",
or
"Shelley does...well, you know..."
btw, congrats on your hotness, but I'm actually more interested in the upcoming Pepper-interview. When is it due?

Not sure on the Pepperberg interview yet, as she's travelling currently. Whenever she has the time to talk to me....although if it is later than sept 14, it will have to wait till oct when i'm back in the country.

Well, congratulations on moving to phase two of your plan, Shelley...

And congratulations for having something more concrete for a second phase than "????".

What I would like to know is if Shelley would think about dating a Law Student?

"beat you with my scepter"? Scienceblogs isn't where I expect to find that kind of kinkiness....

Not to rain on your parade, but isn't being voted the hottest science blogger sort of like being valedictorian of summer school?

Parrots? Who TALK? with LASERS??

(Wondering whether role of henchperson is open or not... practising dragging limp and lisping just in case)

So how will your parrot flocks stand against PZ's celaphod hordes? Or are you going to team up to conquer the world, and then split the spoils?
