How to score with the opposite sex is man's greatest mystery, in Hollywoodland or otherwise, but the following list of cinematic spazoids should certainly be regarded as a source of inspiration for all of us.

449631404- Finch's fondness for golf and his knowledge of the fine arts get all the high school girls hot for his cargo shorts. Or it could be that he paid top dollar to have rumors spread about his allegedly oversize package.

449631456- John Hughes' cameras never confirmed that this king of the dweebs bagged a babe—not just any, but Caroline Mulford (Haviland Morris), the school's finest. Then again, the brace-face did wake up with her the following morning. Thus, at the very least, he made it to first base, which counts as a grand slam in any dork's book.

449645282- If you ever want to get a little nookie, just lock yourself in a bathroom with a cast member from Six Feet Under. It's a surefire ticket to poundtown, even if you're a puny redheaded dork.

449631294- If being Mr. Nice Guy or working at your old man's hardware store doesn't get the girl, metaphysically transforming into an oversize pubescent Ewok should do the trick.
