Embrace Your Geekness Day
On July 13 embrace your geekness and use it as your secret power because it is Embrace Your Geekness Day.
Being a geek is something to be proud of - chances are there are few other people in the world who are as smart as you are in the field of your specific interest, may it be music, video games, comics, movies, renaissance-era jewelry making techniques, or astronomy. So accept your geekiness with open arms and show off your knowledge with pride!
How to Celebrate?
- Learn something new and geeky today.
- Flaunt your geekiness with pride. Are you a math geek? What about wearing a cool t-shirt with a math problem that only fellow math geeks would understand.
- If the field you are interested in has a secret language, what about spending the day speaking the language?
Did You Know…
…that geek was originally used as a derogatory term to describe circus workers? Today, however, the term has evolved to describe a person who is an enthusiastic expert on a particular issue or subject.

When our ship stopped in the Atlantic Ocean for a “swim call,” the chief boatswain noticed how nervous I was.
“Don’t worry,” he assured me. “You are never more than three miles from land.”
Then he added, “Straight down.”

As I stepped out of the shower, I heard someone in my kitchen downstairs. Knowing that my wife was out, I grabbed my 1903 heirloom rifle—which no longer works—and crept downstairs, forgetting the fact that I was in my birthday suit.
I came around the corner with the gun raised, only to find my wife loading the dishwasher.
“What are you doing?” she asked.
“I thought I heard an intruder. I came down to scare him.”
Scanning the contours of my doughy, naked body, she mumbled, “You didn’t need the gun.”

Our drill instructor was at the end of his rope:
An airman’s ineptitude was driving him crazy.
Getting in the airman’s face, he demanded, “Whoever told you to join the Air Force?!”
Snapping to attention, the airman proclaimed, “The Navy recruiter, Sir.”

My friend forgot his laptop on the floor of my room. My grandma thought it was a scale.
Conclusion: My grandma weighs $950.
