Geek Pride Day and Towel Day!

May 25th marks a special occasion on many geeks hearts, the anniversary of the original release of Star Wars A New Hope. So in honor of that today is Geek Pride Day...

Also, in honor of the late great Douglas Adams it is Towel Day. So be sure to carry around your towel!

Happy Geek Pride Day! And have an eventful Towel Day!

I think what Cure means is this so-called "geek pride" isn't something to be celebrated. You are who you are.

Doug Adams wrote the Hitchhiker's Guide...thus the towel reference.

Some of you guys obviously don't realize how useful a towel can be.
