In case you haven't noticed, I'm secretly a geek.
THINGS I'M TOTALLY A GEEK ABOUT:
(aka things that, if you mention them around me, will cause me to go into a geek rave, and begin spouting off far more information than you ever wanted to know about even anything that you care about, much less these)
Lord of the Rings
Doctor Who
Star Wars
Avatar: The Last Airbender
Hayao Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli's movies
X-Men
Okay, just Marvel in general
Dr. Horrible
Portal
Harry Potter
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Invader Zim
The IT Crowd
And, as if that weren't enough, here are
THINGS I PROBABLY ALREADY LIKE BUT TOTALLY WISH I WAS A GEEK ABOUT:
(aka the things I like but know very little about. in conversation about these topics, I tend to sit back and listen to the others talk, but also talk myself and pretend I know far more than I actually do about the subject)
Pokemon
Zelda
Mario
Anime
Fullmetal Alchemist
Other Valve games besides Portal
Star Trek
Phineas and Ferb
Sad, right? Both lists are depressingly long.
I do, however, extremely enjoy being a geek, as much as I pretend I'm embarrassed by it. I'm not actually embarrassed by it at all! I just like to pretend. It's kind of weird. It's like in Dr. Horrible......
Penny: Sometimes people are layered like that. There's something totally different underneath than what's on the surface.
Dr. Horrible: And sometimes there's a third, even deeper level, and that one is the same as the top surface one. Like with pie.
My top surface one is that I love being a geek. Totally and completely. But underneath that, I'm secretly embarrassed by it. But underneath that, actually I really love being a geek......
The other day, I started watching Star Trek. Yeah, the old one. Yeah, the 1966 TV show. What's that you say? I'm insane? I'm a complete nerd? Correct on all accounts. :D
I'm also extremely into the BBC. British Broadcasting Company. They are so great!!! They have the best writers.....And I'm sure they make terrible, horrible, awfully-written movies too, but I just completely love the stuff they put out....And why is it that America comes up with the worst, most annoying TV shows in the world, but Britain keeps churning out these brilliantly-written shows, over and over and over again? I dunno. But I love them for it.
That is all.
