Ed is an awesomly doofy (short) dork. Most of the stuff mentioned in this list he actually has done at some point! The main female character, Winry, is pretty much just a bad as he is in the geeky department, too and this was very much written with the EdWin vibe in mind.
I would recommend reading the manga or watching the Brotherhood anime, since that's the version of Edward I used for this list (the 2003!anime version is much more ANGST WHINE ANGST I AM A MONSTER than OH HEY I BROKE THE LAWS OF NATURE, BUT HERE'S SOMETHING BADASS I MADE WITH ALCHEMY). It's an amazing serise if you're into something that's a mix of supernatural, horror and comedy and it contains a lot of amazing female characters. In many ways I see the manga as the anti-Twilight, since it's basically about how humanity is strong when we stand together, and 'divine' beings that declare themselves god aren't even worth our time.

Ahh, sorry, I could fangirl about FMA for pages!
