Top 5 Nerdy Things I'm Thankful For

Happy (day after) Thanksgiving Everyone!

In honor of Thanksgiving I thought it would be appropriate for Top 5 Friday to list what nerdy things I'm most thankful for.

5. The Internet - I know it's not strictly a nerdy thing but for me it's a great tool to catch up on my nerd knowledge and of course this blog. From ign to geekologie these sites help make me the nerd I am today and for that I'm truly thankful.

4. Batman - I could have said D.C. but in all honesty most of my respect for them boils down to Batman or the Flash, but Batman is what makes D.C. worth while. I'm thankful for Batman because he's entertained me basically since birth (damn straight I had the Batman pj's) so I couldn't help but salute the Dark Knight.

3. Video Games - Video games of all kinds have fascinated me for as long as I can remember. Every Saturday I used to play SNES all day with my father, a memory I'll never forget, and I've been a gamer ever since, so how can I not be Thankful for all those memories, to games everywhere thank you!

2. Marvel Comics - Marvel has been a bonding point for me for years. Movies, games, and the comics themselves have been the topic of many debates and conversations of mine for countless years, without them I might not have had the friends I have now or even started this blog. Marvel you've got it and for that I'm eternally thankful.

And the number one nerdy thing I'm thankful for is...

1. Star Wars - This is were it all began...this is how the nerd i am today was formed. I was raised on Star Wars and have loved it ever since. My girlfriend had to watch Star Wars after we met, all my friends have at least a mild respect for it, I own a lightsaber umbrella for crying out loud. Besides the modern era of Star Wars (I.E. The Clone Wars) there isn't any reason I shouldn't be thankful for and I always will be for probably the rest of my life.

Well there it is the nerdy things I'm thankful for. Let me know what nerdy things you are thankful for in the comments below. Have a great weekend everyone and see you Monday!
