The Geek Card

I need some verbage for the bottom of the geek card. The fine print. Something like...

This card entitles carrier to blah blah blah.

Help, please

 

Entitles the holder to: Answer questions with the number 42, swear in fictional languages (frell, frak etc...), wear in public, clothing that has gone out of style over 100 years ago and/or clothing that will not be in style for a 100 years, line up for a movie at least 24 hours before its premiere, know by name convention 'regulars' and to also be considered a 'regular', gratuitous use of Acronyms such as BtVS, AotC, LotR:RotK, XML, MYSQL etc... collect children's toys and maintain them in their original packaging, own dice that have more than 6 sides...

I'll come up with more, but I've got to get ready for work.

 

Acronyms such as BtVS, AotC, LotR:RotK, XML, MYSQL


Crap I dont know what any of those are..........

 

You really should know what these are: AotC, LotR:RotK

 

Yeah her geek card definitely needs removal for not knowing those.

 

I know those. Does that make me a geek?
Is it worse that I was watching one of them yesterday?

 

I agree, take Courtneys card...thats just sad.

 

wow. lost before its even printed.

Don't forget that I picked up 2 packs of card laminating sheets just for this project. They are on my dresser waiting to be used!

 

Ok, so maybe I did know some of those, but didnt know I knew them.
I'm bad at acronyms, my brain just cant grasp it.

Everyone was quick to take away my geek card.........I will remember to be as giving.......

Binary solo!

Another acronym for you: FoTC.

 

I would love if these had our screen names and pictures on them...anyone remember the badges Ben (I think it was Ben) did for C3? I still have mine, but if we could have this done in time for August...that would be awesome!


oh, and btw...lost my geek card this morning, or would have had I had one. I am so ashamed.

 

oh i still have mine too!!!

 

I thought they were going to be more credit card size? Hmmm, but badges would be nice for C5

 

Yep, the geek cards are driver's license size. I'll try to post a few options here before the meeting.

Although a badge would be fun, too. Can someone bring the badge to the meeting so I can see?

 

I would be happy to bring my badge to the meeting, Linda.

 

I think I've got mine, too.

 

I have MANY I can bring q

Okay, here it is! Click the link above to see the first draft. It is a business card size and I cut some rounded edges on it.

Please, please feel free to post in this thread suggestions for text, colors, sizing, anything. I'm looking to make this a group project. And I'd love to see what creative nonsense we can put together. If I make any changes today based on your posts, I'll bring the updated version to the meeting. I'll bring a big copy so we can see detail. And I'll bring an actual size copy so we can see if it's hard to read or what.

Thanks!

 

A bar-code is needed... any self respecting geek requires a bar-code

 

That is so awesome!!!
