Geeky Christmas: What to Buy The Fanatic Person In Your Life

December 5, 2017 0 Comments

Contributed Post Of all the people on earth, everyone should reserve a special place in their heart for the people who live with passion. They’re the people who don’t do things by half: they go all in, and will willingly let themselves be consumed by the things they love. While this is inspiring to see on a daily basis, there’s also another advantage: it makes buying presents for them all the more straightforward. Below, we take a look at a few types of gifts you can get for that fanatic person in your life.

I’ll be broadcasting live this Friday from Youtube, because I am a colossal idiot

December 15, 2016 8 Comments

You may know that I co-host a modest little nerd&nostalgia show on Youtube. It’s fun. And sometimes stupid. And fun. But mostly stupid. I’d not have it any other way. The really stupid thing, though, is that I let my co-host, Tig of Nerd Out With Me, convince me to do a live Christmas special this Friday night. So that’s what we’re going to do. We’re going to broadcast live for hours, doing god knows what. Maybe singing Christmas songs while drinking beer and swinging replica Lord of the Rings axes at one another and accidentally breaking family heirlooms. We’ll have some special guests, including Bad Luck Bootsy from Cinemassacre / Angry Video Game Nerd. It’s going to be awful in the most wonderful of ways and…

Christmas music is awful, awful, awful. There are exceptions, though, and I’ve identified the five best, because I am awesome. Not as awesome as these Christmas songs, but it’s pretty damn close. 6) U2 – Christmas, (Baby Please Come Home) You thought this list was going to be “edgy,” right? (Get it?) This one throws that assumption right out the window (though admittedly, it’s a red herring). Sure, it’s the most traditional one here, originally done by the amazing Darlene Love, but whatevs, yo! Bono’s grating earnestness is PERFECT here. Their…
