This just happened.

And maybe I took the Jedi Padawan metaphor a bit far here, but Star Wars is the base of my own Geekdom and therefore the geekery I know the best. 

I hate the concept of Fake Geeks. Male or female (even though we only ever see Fake Geek Girls getting ragged on.) 

I hereby move that all Fake Geeks be given the status of Geek Padawan. It at least indicates that there is a willingness to learn to be a Geek Knight and a Geek Master and maybe sit on the Geek Council to school Knights who don’t get that a lack of knowledge from the Geek Younglings doesn’t mean a lack of desire to learn.

[also what. Why would you equate cosplay to liking Final Fantasy?? I mean yes. I enjoy 7 & 8 & 10, and have cosplayed a character from each but… damn man my current favorite games are Saints Row the Third, Warcraft, and Minecraft.]
