Tomorrow is geek pride day. Yeah. [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geek_Pride_Day[/url]
I didn't know it existed until someone at a different forum was talking about it o_O;
So...who's celebrating it?

Happy birthday, Queen of the Tofu! =D
May your tofu rule over all, the fried tofu, the sweet and sour tofu, the mayo tofu, the stinky tofu, etc. 🙂

What a stupid cause for celebration.
Far-off places with sweet sounding names.

Lets just create a "category day" in which every category of people can celebrate themselves. Solves calendar problems (not enuff days for every category, they'll eventually overlap XD)

I need a die with 2 sides.
That's known as a "coin".
Oh, thanks. Too much D&D.

Most of these "(insert random group) pride day" are rather pointless.

Well, it's not like it's recognized as an official holiday or anything, so I don't see the harm. If some of you react negatively about something as pointless as this, I can only imagine how you'll react over the other special days that aren't known that well...

Just because someone's head was chopped off doesn't mean they're dead. That's just silly.
