As a geek, you definitely know your ABCs, but do you know these? Geeks Are Sexy has you covered.
I was just going to post a few photos with a link, but then I read it aloud and found it all rhymed a neat poem! If you’re a Geek (nod) then you should read it too:
Watch this video because it is mad cool, and you wont believe that this is ONLY for a local high school soccer team!
South Korean fans using their clothes and quick movements to create an amazing visual effect during a football game.
In the video hundreds of fans, wearing colour coordinated outfits, move and change their clothes to create messages from simple phrases like ‘Victory’ to more intricate effects such as a moving boat. – Cameron McMillan
I don’t care so much as to why she’s dressing up, because she seems to be pulling off these costumes pretty well. Or maybe it’s just a ‘any babe wearing a costume is always hot’ thing?
Is Adrianne just trying to be geeky? (why would anyone try to be geeky?) Well, she is a self-confessed World of Warcraft player with a level 80 character, plus her devotion towards science fiction fantasy dress-up is pretty meticulous, so yeah, she’s a geek.
Regardless, Miss Curry likes ‘The Fifth Element’ and that’s good enough for me:
“Chicken…good!”
Just as good as its silver-screen counterpart, if not better, because this thing works:
In 2008, Anthony Le set out to do something very important: Build a suit from Iron Man.
The 25-year-old fitness consultant has been a life-long Iron Man fan, and his first attempt was more of a costume. His second? His second is a US$4,000 dollar suit held together by high-impact urethane and, according to Popular Science, over 1,500 rivets and washers. Le sculpted the helmet from clay and then created the finished product from resin.
Outfitted with LEDs, the suit boasts a spinning cylindrical gun spins and a motorized helmet faceplate that can open and close. The gun is powered by pressing a button in the suit’s glove and can be converted into a paintball gun.
Le decided to make this War Machine suit, the one that Stark’s buddy Jim Rhodes wears in Iron Man 2, because, as he tells PopSci, “it just looks more hardcore”. That it does. [Kotaku]
Very cool guys; the world needs more random cool stuff like this:
This is one of over 100 different missions Improv Everywhere has executed over the past eight years in New York City.
For our latest mission, we brought the movie Ghostbusters to life in the reading room of The New York Public Library at 42 Street. The 1984 movie begins with a scene in the very same room, so we figured it was time for the Ghostbusters to make an encore appearance.

I love this stencil; such a cool message:
Former NASA advanced space illustrator Kurt Wenner specializes in painstakingly rendered street paintings that fool the eye and hurt the brain.
Wenner has been commissioned by companies, festivals, and the Catholic Church to create his meticulous murals all over the world. Up next: installations in London and Taiwan. [io9]
Check Wenner’s website for updates.
This guy has mad skills. J. Scott Campbell (Gen13, Danger Girl) gives these Disney princesses a mature comic makeover. Not complaining or anything, but these seem a bit much for the Disney crowd. (Know what a stripper is yet kids?)
Poor Timmy. This is well made, and well deserved of its accolade. “Facebook Manners And You” is now an Official Webby Award Honoree for Best Writing and Comedy:
Do you have good Facebook manners? Timmy and Alice don’t. Watch their bad behavior to learn the dos and don’ts of Facebook breakups.
Correction; Redditor Fookhar didn’t make this, but he did bring it to my attention: This lovingly put together series of trunk shots from Quentin Tarantino movies, convincingly makes the case that this is one of the auteur director’s many, many obsessions.
Bigtime bonus points for including From Dusk till Dawn (which he didn’t direct but did write) thereby catching Tarantino in his own shot:
