A Long Winded Recap on My Geek Pride Day 2012
Thoroughly enjoyed Geek Pride Day 2012. Though I show my Geek Pride nearly everyday, I had an eclectic day of nerdery. Started this morning reading the Young Justice comic series from Comixology on my phone. After that I finally finished watching the series finale of Heroes and it got to me, that ending. Why can’t I find a comic series or a Wikipedia link telling me what happens to all the characters? Spent some time geeking out online with some friends, had a nice chat. Even brought up today being Towel Day which made me sorely wish I owned Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
I also managed to finally watch all of Doctor Who: The Caves of Androzani on Netflix. Again, going to be completely honest watching the Fifth Doctor regenerate hit me, even though I knew going in this was the regeneration story. Made me feel nostalgic for the Children In Need special Time Crash so I used that to cleanse my bittersweet palate.
Forced myself to get off my butt and go do something on such a beautiful day I walked to the theater by my apartment to watch Avengers again. The theater is rarely busy, nevertheless I still stood in line a good 15 minutes because the cash registers were down. Got in to my theater and it was nearly empty, and I had an entire section to myself. Watched it in 2D this time and I must say that it felt more intimate this way, to me. Wow, Joss Whedon. Agent Coulson’s death really hit me where I live this time around. I attribute it to being alone in the theater and not having a packed room distracting from the drama.
Sidebar: I REALLY want to try some Shawarma.
Walking away from the theater back to my apartment it hit me just how in turmoil I put my little geeky heart this Friday. Getting home to find HBO playing Harry Potter: The Deathly Hallows Part 2 I sat down at let the finale of that particular chapter of my nerd life wash over me again.
It astounds me sometimes just how good my mind is at suspending disbelief. I did not plan on being this introspective this Geek Pride Day.

I felt that Sparks McGee was lacking in the world outside the internet so I designed this T-shirt and got it custom made for me :) I don’t know the first thing about mass production and retail of clothing though so this is the only one in existence. Perhaps if it’s awesome enough Wheaton can convince his shirt making buddies to make this a thing ;)
