Sunday Links for May 29


This week, we celebrated Geek Pride Day and the 100th Birthday of the New York Public Library.  Even if you haven't been to the NYPL, you still know those iconic lions.  (via [insertgeekhere] and Mental Floss)  

In crazy spoiler news, if you are interested in The Amazing Spider-Man, check out this clip from Stan Lee about his cameo in the newest flick.  Like I said, Villain Spoiler Alert!  (via Bleeding Cool)

My favorite thing about geeks is how enterprising we are.  If we want something that doesn't exist, we do our best to create it.  So this week brought the news of a new con hitting the circuit - Power-Con / Thundercon 2011.  This is a joint con for Masters of the Universe and Thundercats fans.  Hello my childhood!  (via Robot 6)

As San Diego Comic Con gets closer and closer, we get to see how desperate fans get for tickets.  It brings a whole new perspective to the event.  What would you do for SDCC tickets?  (via Bleeding Cool)

If you need a laugh, go and check out Geek to Me's twitter feed because he has started a new hastag about the Most Interesting Geek in the World.  It's some funny stuff.  (via Geek to Me)

Finally, we want to just say thank you to all of the service men and women that have protected our country with their lives.  Have a great Memorial Day weekend.

Happy Geek Pride Day!!!!

Editor's note: This post may be old but it is still as true as ever.  
-Wilderowens


Today is the day to let your geek flag fly high! 

Today is the day you stand up and wish random people to "Live Long and Prosper" and proclaim that Greedo Shot First. 

Today is the day you let haters and the confused know that you are proud of who you are. 

Today is the day when arguments end and no one questions your dedication to your passion. 

Today is the day when n00bs and L33t stand together and Whedonites and Twihards join hands to say together that no matter what, YOU ARE PROUD TO BE A GEEK




Today is also the day certain fan groups celebrate a specific holiday, at least according to Wikipedia.

To Hitchhiker fans, have a Happy Towel Day.
To the Jedi, Sith, Stormtroopers and Rebels, have a Merry Star Wars Day.
Finally, I wish the best to Discworld fans on the Glorious 25 May. 


Please rejoice in your fandoms and 
have an amazing Geek Pride Day !!
