Geekiest Vacations...

Moonliner · 06-14-2007, 02:46 PM

Guess what was just voted the number one "Geekiest Vacation" by eWeek?

Traveling to visit your online friends.

I'll see you all next week.

I am geek here my roar.

I've done 8 of the things on the list and I expect I'll add item #6 very soon.

JWBear · 06-14-2007, 03:00 PM

I've done several of those...

Prudence · 06-14-2007, 03:11 PM

zomg! If I move to the east coast I could go to Pennsic! I hadn't thought of that!

Er, um, I would never do any of those things.

JWBear · 06-14-2007, 03:24 PM

That's ok. While I never had the chance to go to Pennsic, I've been to more west coast wars than you can shake a halberd at.... (I was at Great Desert War I - Caid 0, Atenveldt 0, Wind 20!)

Kevy Baby · 06-14-2007, 03:50 PM

Only done three. Including #1

I think comic con counts as either #4 or #13,
and you mean to tell me if you went to vegas and into the star trek , you wouldnt go in Quarks?
And c'mon, you've never done #12?

Capt Jack · 06-14-2007, 04:32 PM

oh....yeah, ok. if 4 or 13 count as Con, then I feel better.
As far as Quarks...I'd never heard of it until a few (threads) ago, when it was mentioned here.
and 12? not sure....do Vegas, DL, Grand Canyon or NYC count as Geek Destinations for Nerdy reasons?

(I dont get a lot of vacations.

)

Anything you go see becasue of a nerdy reason counts.

ie: imo, going to Kansas City BBQ because the bar scene in Top Gun was filmed there counts.
