    Man in Futurama’s Bender helmet proposes in binary code

    It's a geeky proposal sure to melt Futurama fans' hearts.

    A man in a Bender helmet proposed to his girlfriend entirely in binary code. She said yes—after 30 minutes of decoding.

    The bride-to-be explains:

    "My boyfriend told me I had to close my laptop for a couple minutes, then when I logged back on this was posted to my Facebook wall. He sat across the room as I transcribed and then decoded it. After about a half hour I found out it says, 'Rachel, you are awesome. Will you marry me?' I said yes, of course."

    Warning: You probably won't understand the video below, unless you're fluent in binary.

      There are only 10 types of people in the world...those who understand binary - and those who don't. Congratulations!

        Cant be 10, has to be an odd number... BI-nary... pairs plus the one who doesn't, therefor an odd number.... you must fit into the latter category

      How about saying their wedding vows in binary? That would be really awesome as well.

      much more original than the typical boring "romantic" proposal. Give him an ++A for creativity. Man this dude is a geek, nothing wrong with that though.

      I think the great mystery is that a man who is obviously a major nerd has a girlfriend in the first place. Women tend to treat such people as if they carry the plague. I know this to be a fact as I too am a nerd.
