I should point out that Geek Pride Day is also Towel Day, but you don’t have to be a Douglas Adams fan to carry a towel. Geeks are a very special group (and I’m not talking “helmet-wearing, window-licking, mouth-breathing” special… I stopped licking windows, like, three years ago).
Thus, I’m dedicating my current Facebook status message to everyone who’s celebrating today by reading comics books, watching anime, playing Dungeons & Dragons, or doing any other geeky activities: “Happy Geek Pride Day! I haven’t heard of any local parades, so I’ll have to settle for marching around the house in my underwear and a cape.”
