Its a geek thing

So recently Ive been embracing my geek heritage. You see up until recently I have kept it to myself, since lets face its the whole comics, computer games, sci fi is all kinda "fringe" stuff. So I'm always embarrassed that I'll say something geeky and people will all look at me, the room will go silent, someone will drop a glass and a couple of the men will faint to proclamations of good gods as they slump to the floor.
But as Ive become more comfortable is uni land i have discovered that just about anything goes and in a place where, stoner goggles wearing people go hand in hand with renaissance style intellectuals then being a geek is very small potatoes.  Plus i have been informed I have retro cool, now I'm not sue what that means but I'm taken it as a compliment.
I sit typing before you now with no less than four t shirts bearing superhero logo's. superman(TM), batman (TM), ironman(TM) and green lantern(TM).
Green lantern(TM) is my particular favourite, he's a sort of intergalactic police man who protects sector 2814 (earth (TM)). He does this by using the green lantern ring the so called "most powerful weapon in the galaxy" which uses sheer willpower to work.
I think I like him so much because of the shear verity of the stuff he can do, but that a simple blow to the head , if he's not paying attention, can knocking out of a fight. Plus theres that whole yellow thing. Mostly though its  watching allot of Warner brothers cartoons as a kid. See GL (TM) can create anything with his ring and sometimes he makes giant anvils and things to drop on people and that just brings me back to watching bugs, daffy and the rest doing the same.
I've also started on my history essay....
The really cool thing about GL (TM)  though is he makes mistakes. Most superheros don't do this ( eith the exception of spiderman (TM) because he does nothing but mistakes). The most famous GL (TM) of all times was Hal Jordon who failed to protect his hometown when it was destroyed with a huge bomb. Then he set his Ring to recreate the city down to every lamp post and mail flap. When the guardians (his boss) heard about this they were pissed and called him for disciplinary action, and so he went rogue and tried to take out the green lantern core (TM). He very nearly succeeded.
I admire superheros because they always try to do the right thing in a world of doubt that something to emulate.
So geekiest thing about you??, watch star trek?, like the sci fi channel?, have every season of buffy on dvd??. Let me know :)

Anyway I here the essay calling, Quick!! to the bat pendrive

P.S when I misspelt spiderman earlier one of the things it came up with was "did you mean Superman?" fuckin philistines.
