http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geek_Pride_DayGeek Pride Day is an initiative to promote geek culture, celebrated on 25 May. The date was chosen as to commemorate the release of the first Star Wars film, A New Hope on 25 May 1977 (see Star Wars Day), but shares the same date as two other similar fan "holidays": Towel Day, for fans of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy trilogy by Douglas Adams, and the Glorious 25 May for fans of Terry Pratchett's Discworld.
I really need to see these films again,not seen them since the 80'sMajor Nelson's twitter pointed me to this,i wasn't aware of the day before
Unfortunately i am somewhat of an Inbetweener,i am not brainy enough to call myself a geek and not tough/butch enough to be considered a jock...but i do consider myself to lean to the Geek side the most,can that count???
