    Not that I'm anti-geek or anything, but when did being a geek become cool?

    My brother and I were discussing this yesterday, and it made me think. Is it like after high school it's cool?

    I feel like geeks are only hot if they're being authentic.
    If you have to keep telling everyone all the reasons why you're a geek, and listing all the things that make you "cool", then you're just trying too hard.

    That's a huge turn off.

    I get the feeling some of these girls are trying too desperately to be counter-culture.
    Let me figure all the things boys like and like them too so I'll be different and stand-out!

    You mean like telling people "you bought a Warriors of Virtue action figure and are now playing with it"?

    Awesome! How about adding putting down trashy magazines and reading all the Game of Throne books instead.. ;)

    Reading them now! FTW! But I don't really consider myself a geek. Although the other day when I was rocking my Wonder Woman Chucks and shirt, a guy said, "You must be a Comic Con girl." I was all, "Yeah, so what?" :laugh:

    We've discussed this ad nauseum here:

    I'd be more impressed if 'Mark Hamill' was spelled correctly.

    Or, if you want to read a magazine, you could read Heavy Metal instead.

    Women who have to advertise themselves as "geeky" are usually just hipsters in disguise.

    When did being a geek become entirely about video games and being a fan-boy/girl?

    It took my husband 39 years to find his geeky girl and he's never been happier! I have always been a geek and will die a geek. I'm playing Fallout 3 again (taking a break from Skyrim) and just got Star Wars for Kinnect :bigsmile:

    If you're going to claim the geek pedigree, at least spell Hamill correctly! It's freakin' MARK HAMILL ffs.

    Smh. Disgrace!

    The series of novels is actually called "A Song of Ice and Fire". The first book, "A Game of Thrones", is what the TV show is based off of (it's OK, but the books are way more detailed). I'm on the third book (A Storm of Swords) and my hubby just recently bought me the most recent book (#5), "A Dance With Dragons". Can't wait to finish 3 & 4 and start 5 since 6 (The Winds of Winter) and 7 (A Dream of Spring) are on their way. True fans will understand how big this is since the last book to come out before #5 was in 2005!! Did I mention these books average between 800-1,000 pages each and come with their own maps and glossary so you can follow along?!?!

    Sorry, geeking out a little!!! :tongue:

    Just so you know, if you have a whole group of geeks hanging out together it's a "Gaggle of Geeks". Term coined by one of my coworkers several years back.
