Tuesday Night Picture Fun

This is a test of your geekatude.  Look at this picture of a Halloween display and then tell me what you thought.

If you didn’t know what you were looking at, or you thought, “Hey, clever!  Pac-man!” you probably aren’t a geek.

But if you thought, “that’s wrong.  When the ghosts are multicolored, Pac-man can’t eat them!” then you are a geek.

And if you thought, “those ghosts are the wrong color!” you are an ubergeek.

Happy (impending) Halloween.

  1. I see a Tea-Party-Republican eating a Dem, a Green and an old guard Republican. The black thingie is the Combine’s script.

  2. The blue one can be eaten. The light blue one is about to return to its normal color, so there’s a chance you can still eat it. The red one will kill you.

  3. The red one will kill you.

    Heh

    Ain’t that the truth.

  5. What if after pointing out what John just did about the colors, you also note that pac-man is supposed to be yellow? 🙂

  8. So I’m not a geek?

    This methodology is SERIOUSLY flawed.

    Great post, tho.

  9. Well, you did say probably not a geek, so I guess there’s not as big a problem as I thought.

    Ne’ermind.

  10. Mega-geek?
    Ultra-geek?

    Super geek, super geek,
    He’s super geeky!

  11. I created my name in 1985 to play D&D; so probably above Ubergeek 🙂

  12. Went from a 15-y.o. delinquent yoot to a 25-y.o. delinquent adult in the decade of the 1980’s,
    and I’m pretty sure I never put a single quarter into a PacMan machine.

    Also never saw an episode of Seinfeld.

  13. Seinfeld premiered in 1989, so it shows you how much I know.

  14. I thought PacMan so I’m not a geek. Guess I was too busy raising geeks to pay attention. My kids did have a PacMan game and I occasionally played with it. Perhaps I am a semi-geek.

  15. MetroGeek.
