Irma: cute or no?

[CJStyles]

Eh, Irma in my mind is too nerdy to be cute.

[Scandia]

Again, I do not think that nerdy is the right word to describe Irma. In no way is she an academic overachiever. And geeky would not be it either- she is not majorly into computers nor has eccentric hobbies pertaining to sci-fi and fantasy. I don't even know if dorky- after all, she is not particularly socially awkward.

[Sage Ninja]

I think Irma is just mousy and dowdy. But I do think she is cute even with the frumpy clothes and and hair stlye. And if she did change her clothes (and attitude LOL) she would be reasonably good looking. I mean not a bomb shell like April but still

I suppose shes not a nerd, the term nerdy is preffered by her big glasses and dorky voice i guess

What's a spaz

[General Traag]

Irma is one of those ladies where everyone thinks 'ugh...', but then she opens her hair-knob and takes down the glasses (of course in slow motion) and everyone is like 'YAY'.

So Irma -> *Rawr*

[Short for spastic and spasm.]

I'm surprised I found it here. The only way I knew to explain it before was to say "an eccentric individual". Good to know I've been using the term correctly all this time. ^_^

BTW, I agree with her being considered a 'spaz'.

[TheUltimateShredhead]

I actually googled spaz and find a definition in urbandictionary that a spaz is some one behaving very retarded if that's the case im definitely agree

Maybe this will change some opinions (note: probably not safe for work):

Lemme just say when I was more naive, I though Irma dressed like that because she was completely insecure with herself. now I'm absolutely convinced she dresses like a slob because she's woken up with a hangover in bed with a strange dude next to her.

No wonder why she's so obsessed with getting the story of the century.

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to The Technodrome Forums after dark.

[Coola Yagami]

Yeah, April's so obsessed with getting the story to get her mind off the fact that even Irma can get laid when she can't. April's boss takes advantage of this to make sure Channel 6 gets the story before all the other stations by sending April to foolishly risk her life every third day. That's why despite the fact that she's 'Channel 6's Top Reporter' she's always constantly in risk of getting fired.

In all fairness, we don't know a lot about Irma's past times, excluding her fascination with men For all we know, she likes sci-fi and I can totally see her getting into fantasy since she lives in a fantasy world where some dream guy will appear and take her away to live in happy wedded bliss

Plus the word nerd can refer to a foolish person who lacks social skills, but that's in the "informal" definition of the word nerd. -> yep, English was my fave class

I always thought of her as awkward and lonely...with questionable fashion sense, but I think with better glasses and a new hair do, she could be good looking, no doubt about it!

[Coola Yagami]

Not to mention better clothes that show off a bit of her feminine traits. She has a nice body on her, she gotta wear some jeans or somethin...

She isn't bad looking, despite the geeky apearance she kind of has that suductress look to her, with the half lowered eye lids. Kind of like those seemingly nerdy and mousy anime girls you see in hentia that turn out to be the biggest sexiest naughty girls that will tye you up and whip you.

[/QUOTE]

OMG is that woman in yellow supposed to be April?! She looks nothing like April in the cartoon that comes on now! Why does she look so diffrent?! I've seen pictures of the turtles in the 80's cartoon and despite looking more...diffrent, look about the same over-all as the turtles that come on now, even Splinter even thpough he is brown. How come April had a make over for the modern toon?

[gobo]

Because 2K3 April was meant to be an entirely different character, that character-design didn't suit her. Out of curiosity, what third-world country without access to classic Ninja Turtles did you come from?

[ToSte]

I could go for an Irma if she didn't wear glasses, that sweater, or talk.
