My Scott and Jean: The Master List<\/strong><\/p>\n

It all started with a simple phrase: “That’s my Scott and Jean.”<\/p>\n

Said phrase was uttered by friend-of-Alert-Nerd Dan Faust on that bastion of 140-character social networking, Twitter. And said phrase means, essentially, “That is my geek sacred cow, the one topic I cannot discuss rationally because it makes me too insane\/angry\/scary-eyed.”<\/p>\n

We had a thought: why not challenge a bunch of nerdbloggers to reveal their Scott and Jeans\/geek sacred cows for all the world to see? It will either be incredibly fun or result in a bunch of smashed laptops!<\/p>\n

Why Scott and Jean as the term’s namesake? Well, given the history and drama behind their coupling, they seem to provoke a good degree of, ahem, passion in a lot of people. Including Sarah.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This is a brilliant idea!\u00a0 My thanks to EDP of ‘I Don’t Read My Blog Either’<\/a> for sending this my way.<\/p>\n

I personally have two Geek Sacred Cows.\u00a0 Two topics that I cannot discuss rationally because it makes me too insane\/angry\/scary-eyed.\u00a0 Both are characters that came back to life that should have remained dead.<\/p>\n
