About
What’s it mean to be a geek? Wikipedia defines a geek as “a peculiar or otherwise odd person, especially one who is perceived to be overly intellectual” and describes “one with low social skills, regardless of intelligence.”Geekadelphia is two geeks (someday more) blogging about all-that-is-geek in the City of Brotherly Love.
We don’t claim to be peculiar, odd, overly intellectual, lacking in social skills, hermits, hackers, or neophiliacs. We don’t call everyone n00bs or “pwn” people on a daily basis. We’ve never watched Beauty & The Geek or Beat The Geeks when they were on television, though we did enjoy Freaks & Geeks. Who didn’t?
We do, however, claim to love video games, computers, pointless-inventions, high budget over-the-top action movies, useless gadgets, comic books, South Park, WoW, Family Guy, Star Wars, and consequently, episodes of South Park and Family Guy that make fun of WoW and Star Wars.
Our goal? To talk about geeky things that interest us and highlight events, stores, and people in Philadelphia who, like us, are geeky.
Welcome to Geekadelphia. Enjoy your stay… n00b.
