On another note, you've become something of a gay icon, or at least object of affection. Have you noticed it at all? What do you think of it?
I've started to notice it a little bit, although so far it seems like I'm more a subject of geek affection than gay affection. Weird things happen once you appear on TV a couple times; I got a (straight) marriage proposal in my inbox the other day (which for any number of reasons, I turned down). But in general, the whole thing is a terrific confidence-booster. I'm just focused now on trying to build out the 538 brand and making sure I keep getting to do this stuff for a long time.
He also dodged answering whether or not he's gay but he must be because why else would someone turn me down? Know what I mean? Anyway, the whole point is he made a vague reference to the silly shizzle I've been pulling for the past months and now I want to crawl under the desk and absolutely die. DIE.
Kill me. Seriously.
I hope he at least found them amusing.
Google nate silver marriage proposal and you're right there in the 2 spot. Yay semi famous!
ReplyDeleteWhy do you think he's gay? I mean, imagine he'd left the words in brackets (straight... for any number of reasons, I turned down), then it would have looked like he really is.
