Andy works for LG. Kaylee works for T-Mobile. They both love Android, and they weren’t afraid to use their wedding cake [by  Michelle Evans at Shelly's Cakes] to show it.

You know how you’d be sad for someone if they got an iPhone cake for their wedding? Well, take that sadness and multiply by one-and-a-half.*

Via Gizmodo, who doesn’t think that anyone should celebrate their love in the name of soulless, corporate giants. Unless you’re celebrating a love of capitalism. In which case… cheers!

* Because Android phones are inherently 50% less cool than iPhones. TRUE FACT. And if you find yourself trying to dispute that fact, it’s because your bitter, jealous anger doesn’t know how else to express itself. Because it is foolish. Like your taste in phones.

Much as the protagonist in Kick-Ass did, he roams the streets of his city looking for evildoers to thwart.

And much as the protagonist in Kick-Ass did, he gets his ass kicked quite a bit:

Phoenix said since he started his crime-fighting crusade nine months ago, he’s been stabbed, and had a gun pulled on him a few times, but received no serious injuries.

This can only end badly. But, hey! Look! A cosplayer roaming around outside, with nary a nerd convention in sight!

And he’s just about as unnerving as you’d expect. Like, bordering on serial killer from Silence of the Lambs who hangs out in his basement trying on other peoples’ skin unnerving.

I’ve read each of [the books] over one-hundred times… I filled three rooms of my house with Harry Potter collectibles… Even dress robes that I wore to prom… I can wear Harry Potter clothing every day for three months, without wearing the same thing twice… four tattoos on my body, with plans for more… I am Harry Potter, himself.”

Yikes.

To those of you who are going to be all, “Oh, stop picking on him, there’s nothing wrong with being an enthusiastic fan!” I have two things to say:

First, I find your naiveté adorable. Like a slow-witted panda bear behind the plexiglass at the zoo.

Second, there’s nothing wrong with enthusiasm, or fandom, or superfandom. However, there’s nothing at all healthy about over-the-top obsession. This is how crazy cat ladies with hummel collections and secret shrines to hapless Hollywood celebrities are made.

Molten potassium chlorate is a strong oxidizing agent that reacts violently with sugar. Gummy bears have lots of sugar in them.

In fact, this might be one of those rare cases where the inverse relationship between impressing other nerds* and being sexually-attractive to women doesn’t actually apply.

Ha, ha, just kidding. Of course it still applies.

I shared this with the legions of GWS Twitter followers and Facebook fans on Friday, but there’s no reason for them (and me) to suffer alone. Let our shared pain bring us closer together through commiseration and mutual support.*

It’s almost like Kristen Bell wants to find out exactly how far she can stretch the bounds of goodwill of her fans.

Via The Daily What, who thinks the bounds lie somewhere between When in Rome and cuddling with drooling mutant tumors. (KILL IT WITH FIRE!)

* Also, P.S.: I find your discomfort hilarious and it feeds me emotionally.

I don’t find much to fault in this chart by The Brunching Shuttlecocks describing the social hierarchy of different types of geeks.  My only nit is that “comic book fans who only read X-Men spinoffs” are considered on the same level as “Trekkies who get married in Klingon garb.” Uh, no. A comic book fan would have to work pretty hard to earn that much pity.

What say you? See any discrepancies? And, no, your vote doesn’t count if you’re a Furry. Or a Klingon-garbed Trekkie.
