"One of the newer looks in recent history’s geek chic catalogue is as follows: we get a sensitive, vulnerable hottie (á la Joseph Gordon Levitt in 500 Days of Summer) who’s a little too earnest and we’re supposed to believe his lot in life is entirely unfixable. In JGL’s case, we’re also supposed to believe that being really into music and cutesy, couple-y activities is just such a burden and that things are looking really bleak for him in the long-term dating game. Sorry, friend, but woe is not you. You are barely a dork, despite how alienated you feel from modernity. Besides, take a look at yourself. We’re pretty sure you’ll be fine."
