Cupid (publicity) stunt

21 Feb 2012

The pit of rubbishy research shows no more evidence of having any bottom after Valentine’s Day last week, with the most relevant (though no means the worst) press release that day “revealing” that 67 per cent of women would now happily date a geek. Apparently slightly amusing spoof secret agent Johnny English is the nation’s favourite, which is a wonderful coincidence considering he’s the lead character in a film whose publicity machine set up the survey in the first place. 

“Far from preferring brawn over brains, women now prioritise personality when looking for a mate,” it said. Which is great news for all nerds with personality, if such people exist.
