FOR all Trekkies, comic collectors and gadget gurus, here's
a day just for you. Today the world celebrates Geek Pride Day. (Who knew?)
Geeks, nerds and whoever else wears thick glasses and a pocketa day just for you. Today the world celebrates Geek Pride Day. (Who knew?)
protector can publicly boast about their geekiness without being
labelled as weird. It happens on May 25, which coincides with the
release of the first Star Wars movie in 1977.

showed their pride by creating a human "Pac-Man" game. In 2008,
it came to the US, where bloggers heralded it as a holiday.
Not sure of your geek orientation? Here are some rights and responsibilities,
as outlined in Geek Pride Day's manifesto.
If they inspire you to put on your favourite
Dungeons and Dragons cape, then, no question, you're a geek. So
take pride and celebrate.
