Whenever I talk about nerdy stuff, I feel like I'm simultaneously giving my nerd credentials and name dropping.
There's something wonderful about people who make references to nerdy type things. Literature. Comics. Manga. Movies. Old music. Especially in casual conversation. It's so wonderful. It's like an inside joke you can have with a complete stranger. You don't know each other, you don't know a thing about them. But you feel they are all right because you over heard them talking about something like Doctor Who. Or maybe they were talking about something about their favorite Jedi and you knew who it was, even though he's a rather obscure character. (My favorite's Quinlan! You've never heard of him? I'm not surprised.... #hipster) Or it's a friend of a friend, and you're just chilling together while the mutual friend is off being social. And you start a conversation about Harry Potter.
It makes me so happy to be able to nerd out with someone else who's a huge fan of the same things. So. Very. Happy. Pretty much, if any one could reference all of the things I nerd about the most in casual conversation.... Well, let's put it this way. If they asked me to marry them, I'd say yes and be completely serious. Da da da da, you found a winner!
So. All they pictures below (besides the Pon and Zi one) reference stuff. And they make me happy :)
I must have just beaten a boss, because I just found a heart container.
You know, it's dangerous to go alone.
I love it when movies reference other movies or something that is currently going on in the world. I think that's why I find the Shrek movies so funny because it is an animated movie but it makes fun of our world. References always crack me up. And it's killing me but what is the "I could save the world but lose you" quote from?
ReplyDeleteIsn't that the best?
ReplyDeleteAnd the quote is from Doctor Who. All the way beck with the ninth Doctor.
