I was perusing the world wide web today and found a lovely article on geek chic; this was a wonderful surprise because I myself practice the art of geek chic. (My favorite purchase this month is a pair of glasses that remind me of ones some little nerd boy no doubt wore in the eighties.) To my disappointment, it's turned into a trend that any self respecting Regina George would follow, which is not 'geek' at all. The only way to be truly geeky is to know some obscure knowledge that no one else does, and I'm sorry Regina Georges out there, but make-up and partying don't qualify. You have to know things like Star Trek, Star Wars, Anime, Computers, Molecular Science, and other areas of intelligence that take time to appreciate and memorize. I spent a whole summer watching Star Trek: The Original Series and have endlessly read and obsessed over the human brain like a fracking zombie(♥'s to my Battlestar Galactica geeks). That is how to be a geek my friends, the clothes come naturally after.
