Happy Geek Pride Day!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geek_Pride_Day
10th anniversary since it started!

So, how will you folks celebrate?
Joining a light-saber brawl, dusting off some cool cosplay, communicating in Klingon, getting some gadget or figurine, hosting a Saint Seiya marathon...
Whatever fandom or pieces of the larger culture you love, I hope you are all having a lovely day! :]

[Sam the Wiser]

I'm going to become a hero today!

Aw yis

[Deleted]

... What. The. Fuck.

[Powerogue]

I'll celebrate it by doing what any antisocial geek would do:

Staying inside, playing video games, and not interacting with anyone.

[Deleted]

....no.

Please, no.

I don't want to be a part of one of those demographics that "has a day".

Ohhh you don't have a choice, join the geek pride side

That's the spirit. Show these noobs how it's really done.

That's a fine choice, I hope you enjoy the day!.
In here, the antisocial, or socially incompetent, aspect is welcomed and celebrated too. Respect!.

I thought it was "Hold on Door" Day.

[ThePhantombox]

....no.

Please, no.

I don't want to be a part of one of those demographics that "has a day".

Shhhhhhhh, just surrender to the hivemind.

I'm a #Geek™ and I'm #PROUD™

Who the what

I honestly did not even know this was a thing, nor do I really understand it.

But uh...hurray I guess. Apparently it's also towel day though or something-

I don't think that's a coincidence.

I'll drop puns that require deep etymological knowledge to parse into casual conversation while trying to show people my stamp collection.

That sounds much cooler.

[Reeve]

Didn't think I required a "pride day."

Here we have TV shows about it (TNT Spain starting in a few minutes), as well as public gatherings, award ceremonies, softcombat in the park (similar to larp), massive Grease sing-along, etc.

Towel day is acknowledged and celebrated simultaneously.

may 25th geek pride day (and towel day)
Very important, the towel! Without it, right now you'd be watching all of my the dark side of the force!
Fuck, how itchy is the laser-saber... I'm sure that Yoda asshole gave me midichlorians
