I was going to comment on the 1010101010101010 floor lights, but then I saw the male geek nudity. Ha Ha!

"I am geeky in an analog, old-school way." Delightful. It was a great time. No one got hurt (I think).

Jason, you'll notice I cutout the quote of you saying you'd "Go for my pants." :-)

I think every comment I leave on this site is in some way a complete disbelief or shocking realization of how rich and utterly bizarre your or anyone's Minnesota story is. Who would've thunk it?

That looked like a lot of fun. Too bad I possess no geekish qualities that I wish to exploit.
I checked out Girl Friday's, and Chuck, you did look creepy: kind of a cross between Star Trek and A Clockwork Orange.

Or possibly even a glittery up Eyes Wide Shut man?

What was up with that mask!?!?
Oh ya...nightmares tonight are what's on the menu.

Never thought I'd say this again, but I'm sorry I had to miss this. The talent show was a nice twist.

Denis and I totally wanted to come, but between the Art Crawl and buying white Rustoleum spray paint at the Home Depot, we just couldn't make it. Looks like we missed a great night.

NYC? Who needs it, I say! Minnesota? You got Zombie get-togethers and Geek Proms! What have we got? Nothin' that compares to that!
Geek out!!

I love that there are people posting on Slashdot about how much they hate public proclamations of geekiness. So meta it hurts.

What is the preferred video technology used on these?
