#244: Geekdom, Part I

Wow, what have I started?

The Neco factory should send me a small contribution for the business I sent them today. d:

I miss the days (over a decade now?) when I could go to Cambridge, MA and pick up a pack of chocolate covered peanuts for cheap from them.

These are actually my favorites…

Is a… is there a sign up sheet for that or where do I go?

I am thinking perhaps the ‘WILLIE Wonka Factory’, if so it must be in a part of the factory not mentioned previously in any of the books. I would looooooove to hear the Oompa-Loompa’s song about that!:smiley:

Awe man… Now I’m picturing a horde of Snookis handing out Necco wafers to you all…

Talking about candy, I loved the care package that Sean sent, you do have some yummy chocolate over there…

The other part of being a geek is when your wife/bf is part geek as well, now my wife isn’t a girlie girl, and while she doesn’t like star trek, she has no problem going to watch sci fi movies with me in the cinema, she’s into her tech and will buy me comics,etc because she knows I’m into them. It also goes both ways in what she likes which do include gossip girl,etc, but she’s also into chuck, walking dead, firefly, dollhouse,etc…she’s awesome :slight_smile:

Snooki want Smoosh Smoosh

Wow. Way to rain on my parade…

the evil horde of Snookie has destroyed my Vulcan calm now Im just afraid :eek:

That was mine made up on the fly. I make up quotes when I’m on a roll.

I loved the Wootstock discussion. I’m hoping to go with a friend to a Minneapolis Wootstock next year. When I saw Paul and Storm and Jonathan Coulton a couple years back, Neil Gaiman and some of the MST3K guys showed up. I get the feeling that the extra guests JoCo and P&S were garnering at shows is what inspired the larger Wootstock thing. I know Adam Savage showed at Chicago shows, too.

Who the frak is Snookie?

Scratch that. I don’t want to know. I don’t even wanna Goggle. She looks like every annoying girl in High School. Let me guess. Some Realty TV cronie.

Yes. I know Stardates but I don’t know Snookie.

Game, set, match.

(I only learned of her b/c she was featured in an article on halloween costumes in the Wall Street Journal. No lie.)

You dressed as Snookie for halloween, didnt you Pike…
jk :smiley:

No. I only saw the article like a day before. Too late to order the poofy wig.

It’s not my costume, I read about it in Wall Street Journal.

Sure Linus, sure, sure.

My job here is done. Carry on.

I never said evil horde…

Yeah, uh huh… (:

So, you’re set for next year then? d:

Edit: Sean was more elegant as always. (:

Naw, this year I was ‘The Situation.’

I still say you as Snooki would be a worthy photoshop challenge though. d:
