What are your 2 geekiest things?
My two geekiest things are both memories – and they both involve Star Wars.
When the revamped version came out at the cinema I was so excited I couldn’t sleep the night before, so I got to the cinema an hour and a half early. I had brought a book (one of the Start Wars novels), so I sat and read that, and when the other people started arriving I was trading Star Wars Tazos with a 7 year old boy!
The second one is going to see Episode One at a not so local multiplex ( I used to live in Deepest Darkest Somerset ). All the way down in the car my friend and I were chanting “Star Wars, Star Wars” (this was a 2 hour drive btw – the driver was not happy). When we came out we went straight to Toys-R-Us and promptly began battling in the aisles with LightSabers.
In fact, we made such a nuisance of ourselves that we got asked to leave the store, and they took our photos so that they could enforce the ‘BAN FOR LIFE’ that they gave us!!
I am not sure whether that qualifies as geeky, sad or just stupid… I guess I will let my fellow SadGeezers judge.
I put myself in your hands – please be gentle.
