Thursday Nerdsday ~ This is what happens when you get sucked into a vortex

I have this love/hate relationship with the internet.

Because cats and memes and photoshop and Reddit.

I have compiled here for you some of the most nerdtastical stuff I've seen lately. Maybe you've seen some of it. Maybe you haven't.

This is what happens when I'm online.

I'm a HUGE fan of challenging stereotypes, and have written before about how the world of the superheroes needs to be more diverse, so when a friend IRL posted this link about Captain America in a turban, I was like YES.

I'm wicked pissed at DC right now, but this is still hilarious...and includes plenty of Marvel folks too.


One of my biggest pet peeves in the world is atrociously bad grammar. I'll be the first to admit that mine isn't perfect, but at least I know when to use there/their/they're. This makes me squeal with delight, and I'm forcing my oldest to watch it so he learns in a way that he'll actually remember.


So, there is this little girl, and she's mad that the female heroes don't get made into the cool toys like boys, so she said something about it. It's pretty awesome.


Thor 2 is coming out fairly soon. The geniuses at io9.com decided to shop a movie poster. This is the best.


Who doesn't love giant hamsters? I mean, really. Whoever dreamed up these commercials was probably high, but I'm okay with that because they are awesome. The fact that this one has the music of Lady Gaga in the background just makes my kids love it more. They really are little monsters.

Darth Lundberg.

You know you want to do this.

No, really. He probably is.
