Geekadelphia Events: October 2nd - Iron Man Release Party & Build Your Own Arc Reactor!

You read the title of the post correctly. On Thursday, October 2nd, The Hacktory and Geekadelphia are teaming up again to throw another lil’ shindig with the folks at Indy Hall.
We spend all summer swooning over the Iron Man movie, and decided that upon its release date on DVD, we’d host a party here in [...]


The things we do to pass the time…

Happy Labor Day to our American readers!  Aside from traveling across the world or spending time with our significant others, one thing we love doing on holidays is sitting at home and playing video games.  Actually, I think one of the things that is a solid qualification for the title of “geek” is countless logged [...]


Olympics Go Gaming

Today over at the Capcom US Blog, Seth Killian posted some pictures one of their users had found while surfing the waves of internet, desperately seeking Capcom-related, Olympics-themed, jokes. She even created one of her own (pictured above) and now we’re spending our afternoon scouring the Google Image search for awkward-yet-perfect Olympians ripe for the [...]


Star Wars Lego Olympics 2008

I’m the kind of guy that has a weakness for clicking on titles like the one you see above this post. I fracking love Star Wars, and Lego, so why wouldn’t it be fun to see how they coincide with some current culture and events in the world…like…the 2008 Beijing Olympics?

We Like the Cars, the Cars That Go BOOM

As debonaire geeks, we here at Geekadelphia clearly roll in the lap of luxury. We fly in diamond-coated jets (maximum air speed), eat diamond-crusted steaks (deeelicious!) and ride in the most pimped of luxury sedans. Well today, lucky readers, you have the chance to experience some of our lavish lifestyle for yourself. Behold the most [...]


Small Talk With a Web Designer

This flow chart titled ‘Small Talk With a Web Designer’ comes straight from The Man in Blue in response to Jason Santa Maria’s ‘Explain Yourself‘ article on the notion of the title “Graphic Designer” as it applies to web design.
Having been a fan of Jason’s websites before, and seeing his work at Happy Cog (based [...]


Nintendo Bikini: Sexy, Purchased For Girlfriend

Few things are hotter than a sexy geek. The success of Shai LaBeouf in Hollywood is proof of that. French clothing designer John Nouanesing knows this and keeping the geeky ladies in mind, he’s designed the Geekini, a two-piece bikini with appropriately placed buttons, resembling an old school Nintendo controller. You can find the start [...]


Geekadelphia Comic #1: The Night is Darkest Before the Dawn

The madness that is The Dark Knight has dominated the box-office since its release, and to many geeks worldwide, the movie experience was almost like Christmas morning. We just thought that there was no other topic worthy of our first installment of the bi-weekly Geekadelphia Comic.
I don’t really have a secret Titanic-themed lair [...]


Geek Shirts by Snorg Tees

In all honesty it’s almost impossible to be a geek without having a plethora of ridiculous tshirts. I happen to own a few..hundred.. myself but I still can’t resist a good pun, or some twisted representation of a videogame/pop culture reference.
These are a few of Snorg Tees’ lineup of t-shirts, sure to satisfy geeks [...]


Comic Hack; Calvin and Jobs

 
It’s cheeky, it’s sharp, it’s intelligent, it’s hilarious, it’s…Calvin…and Jobs?  Yes, Steve Jobs of Apple in a comic strip we’ve always loved.   Unfortunately I don’t really know how to explain this other than to link you to some High Res versions in the Flickr album that they were originally found in.
Speaking of comics…stay tuned for [...]
