I think part of my geeky “Rizz” (as the kids today would say) is that I have none. This was, of course, a huge problem back when I was a teenager, just trying to get girls' attention, But I feel like times have changed a lot. Back in the 80s and 90s there was nothing less appealing than a nerd. You were a “Steve Urkel” or a “Screech” - meaning the least desirable person in the entire school, destined to be forever ridiculed and taunted. You were social poison!. However, times have changed , esp…

Save this list for later use: We all know Star trek fans are known as “Trekkies” and Dr. Who fans are known as “Whovians”, And you might know Firefly fans call themselves “Browncoats”. So here are several more fandoms and the nickname they refer to themselves: Harry Potter fans: “Potterheads” Sherlock Holmes fans (BBC version): “Sherlockians” Marvel Universe fans: "True Believers" The X-Files fans: “X-Philes” Buffy the Vampire Slayer fans: “Scoobies” The Walking Dead fans: “Deadheads” Battlesta…

What happened to horror films ? I remember going to the movies with my friends back in the 80s and 90s and watching some truly disturbing horror movies filled with blood and guts and all kinds of monsters and serial killers. But for the last 20 years I feel like all horror movies are exactly the same - A family moves to an old house, weird stuff happened, people are killed, turns out it was haunted. That's pretty much it. They have become so formulaic and lean so heavily into jump scares, I jus…

Being witty is better than being correct.

Sometimes I feel like we were transported to a different universe right after Avengers: Endgame . It's like Tony Stark died, Then we had a global pandemic, then civil unrest, several wars, Betty White Died and mumble rap lives on, but it also seems like we accidentally stepped into a universe where Marvel forgot how to run a cinematic universe. Remember the time when Marvel could do no wrong? When every single movie they produced broke box office records and got both the fans and the critics ex…

As I upload this listicle I am thinking about the artist that are behind all these classical paintings and my heart goes out to them. I mean, it's one thing to upload a photo or a video to the internet and have it turned into a meme by a bunch of strangers, But it's an entirely different thing altogether when it comes to these paintings. These weren't some sketches people whipped up in an hour; These are paintings that took weeks, sometimes months or even years to complete. Someone poured their…

We all know the drill by now: The Coyote is trying to trick the Roadrunner by painting a tunnel on the side of a cliff and somehow the Roadrunner manages to run through it, But when the Coyote tries to run after him, he immediately smashes into the wall. That's the whole point of cartoons, that they are not bound by any laws of nature and absolutely ANYTHING can happen - Animals can talk, Grandparents can travel between dimensions, and a sponge can live in a pineapple under the sea - anything g…

We didn't know how good we had it back in the 80s and 90s . Looking back, it seems like every year back then was a banger. Timeless classics would hit cinema one after the other and we would go and see them all! and once home video came around there was no stopping us! huge piles of VHS tapes stacked on top of each other, each containing some of the best, most imaginative movies that cinema goers had ever seen. It truly was a golden age of cinema and we were there at the right time and at the r…

This listicle is like hitting "Shuffle" on your browser history (Do people still use "Shuffle" anymore? It used to be such a big deal that apple came out with the iPod Shuffle that will only play random playlists, Remember that?) It has a little bit of everything - Some Star Wars mixed with Alien, some Ghostbusters mixed with Lord of the Rings, Back to the future with Die Hard - anything goes! This is the secret to a good Geeky T-shirt, too, By the way - If you want people stopping you on the s…

Meme-vengers... Assemble!

Look, Listen, I like Stranger Things just as much as the next GenX nerd; It gave me hours of joy, nostalgic feeling to my childhood, some wonderfully written characters and a ton of fun and clever homages and winks to my favorite decade of all time - the 1980s. That being said - They sure did take their sweet time with this series, which is a huge problem when all your main characters are supposed to be kids riding around their neighborhood on their bicycles. No offence but eleven looks thirty…

I'm not saying I have a strange sense of humor, but everyone around me definitely says that—a lot! Some things just make me laugh, and I can't really explain why. It's not that I don't know what's funny about them; it's just too hard to explain to a normal person. I would have to explain two, or maybe three different fandoms , and then draw the connection between each of them to explain why an image is funny. By that point, it's not funny anymore. I've always been like that. My friends would te…

Anyone else feel like we were transported to a different universe right after Avengers: Endgame ? Not only does the world seem to be a far worse one, with global pandemics, civil unrest, wars, and mumble rap, but it also seems like we accidentally stepped into a universe where Marvel isn't doing too hot. Remember the time when Marvel could do no wrong? When every single movie they produced broke box office records and got both the fans and the critics excited? Because I remember that! But now w…

You know what's better than being correct? Winning the lottery! But also being technically correct . In this age of social media, where we engage with complete strangers daily, there's no better feeling than shutting down a conversation or an argument with one perfect comeback. Look, anyone can be correct on the internet (and most people THINK they are, all the time), but being technically correct —that's the ace up your sleeve. It allows you to walk away victorious from any argument, even if y…
