Geeky Bad Habits

I know a lot of people that like to ask me about being a geek. Almost to the point of me being a little paranoid. I just can't hide my geekiness and I am proud of that. It has hurt me though. Professionally, it is bad when you start talking about how you need to leave work early to get to the comic book store in time. This got me thinking about how my geeky nature has brought on a few bad habits.


My Bad Habit
: I hum the Super Mario Theme song when I'm walking and dodging people on NYC streets.

In My Defense
: NYC streets can be so crowded, it is almost like surviving a video game. Plus, I only do it when I'm alone....


My Bad Habit
: I eventually find a way to start talking about my zombie escape plan with almost every person I meet.

In My Defense
: If you follow our tweets, you know that zombies freak me out! You have to be prepared!


My Bad Habit
: I turn into an adrenaline-high-ninja-psycho fan at cons.

In My Defense
: Everyone else either already is psychotic or they need to get out of my way.



I know, I know I'm a little crazy, and I have too much time for self reflection. In the end, I can't blame the geek community just because I'm so quirky. Still, I would like to know that I'm not the only crazy one out there! Please let me know if you have any geeky bad habits too!
