Poll: Favorite Television or Streaming Fictional Geek Character?
On May 25th each year, geeks worldwide let their geek flags fly free on Geek Pride Day. Geeks are a diverse group of individuals, who are enthusiastic about their interests, which often lie outside those of the mainstream public. While among geeks their interests may vary, they share a common bond with their quirkiness, passion, high knowledge level in a shared interest, or even fervent quests in one or more areas. Among geeks, these interests may include areas like science-fiction, fantasy, board games, video games, comic books, cosplay, anime, steampunk, zombies, among many more. In celebration of the reclamation of the term, geek from one that was once used pejoratively, to one that is now used as a badge of honor.
