Hot, Savage, Interracial Pok?mon Lovin’

?No, FFF hasn’t come early this week (it never comes early. I try to put it off as long as possible each week to let my psyche heal from the previous week). But the famous Pok?mon-loving nerd girl PikaBelleChu — who happens to be in the Guinness Book of World Records for her massive collection of Pok?mon merchandise, who owns a Pikachu-designed VW Bug, and has a significant if not wholly supportive fame on the internet — is now engaged to a man dressed as Raichu, which is probably all she’s ever wanted. The proposal happened at this past Anime Weekend Atlanta, known worldwide as the anime convention of love. And it looks like the engagement ring was in a pok?ball, which is seriously awesome.

There was a video of the proposal on YouTube, which has since been taken down; I’m guessing that most folks were not congratulating her or her groom-to-be, unfortunately. I want to offer my congratulations to the happy, nerdy couple, on finding each other in this crazy world. I’m offer not going to preach about not making fun of nerds — since it’s pretty much what I get paid for — but I don’t want to ever savage someone for what should be a purely happy act, like getting engaged or married or having a baby or such. So please, only happy thoughts in the comments for PikaBelleChu and her PikaBeau. (Via Geekologie)
