Best Geeky Finds – Yoga Hosers (2016, PG-13)

“I’m not even supposed to be here today!”

The number of times I’ve thought this is greater than I even want to consider. Kevin Smith’s original series of movies, starting with Clerks, while sometimes cruder than I wished a movie to be depending on the age I was the first time I watched, continue to get better long after their release dates.

Some of us are going to be spending time with groups of people who are outside of our norm. They just don’t get us. Why are we so weird? What is that book? What is an RPG? As geeks, we can isolate ourselves from the “norms” and get lost in our world because we surround ourselves with others like us. But once the holidays come around, we get that stark reminder – but that is OK! I am here to give you the survival guide to get you through!  Continue reading Irregular’s Intel – The Geek Holiday Survival Guide →

Miss Dawn’s Musings – Last Minute Rush

So you promised yourself this year you’d get everything done early so the holidays wouldn’t be such a stressful rush, as they always seem to be. You got the decorations up in good time, mailed out cards, made lists of what presents to get… but you never quite got around to going to the mall… or other stores… or Amazon. And now there’s less than a week until Christmas and you haven’t finished your shopping! Well if you’ve got geeks on your list, I’m here to help.  Continue reading Miss Dawn’s Musings – Last Minute Rush →
