It's a New day



Welcome to my new blog... In retrospect, people might come here in the original post and ask, Who am I and what started this blog.  I am a geek, or used to be... I'm a guy which spent the last decade going to conventions, collecting figures, taking pictures of cosplayers and so many stuff related to the geek lifestyle.

But unlike most geeks in the Philippine fandom community, I am also interested in sports. Basketball, Football, Running and Working out. While these activities spur my interest, I am unable to fully commit to those activities, but I make sure there's something else beside my hobby, social life and career. Don't get me wrong, I've gotten my share of geek cred and awards the past 12 years. But I know when it is time to move on.

I have seen so many people in the geek community forget to do something that has happened to me, which is grow up. The same people which were lording the geek fandoms over when I was still in high school (in the late 90s) are still in it now.

Collectors on their late 30s and early 40s still picking on younger geeks and trying to pin their dominance on their hobbies by pinning the "I'm finding joy by having something other people don't" or instead of guiding and helping other people, they lord it out like prima donna faggots on their forums and communities that other people (who moved on with their lives) help built. 

The same (or worse) can be said the cosplay community. In which, the people which led it to a boring, underground collegiate indie hobby back in the late 90s, are now bitter of it becoming the whoring portal it is. These freaks are also trying to lord over some bunch of teenagers as some sort of self proclaimed masters.Granted, the community is now infested with jejemons, goddesses of attention whoring and "herding" photograpervs.

So that's how the geeks of the 90s are. Nearing (or on their) the 40s, obese and having the only source of social life fulfilled by teenage suckups who are too scared to get kicked out of their group. Perverts who still pick on underage girls at this day and age because they find a lot of difficulty picking a normal woman of their age. Self proclaimed "Kings" and "Masters" who are still persistent on keeping their former glory in dressing up as cartoon characters despite their frustrations that the fictional characters do not age, and they do. Using the "Elitist", "Legend" and "Senior" mask for them to forget about this reality.

But enough about them, Without further ado, let's leave those muthafuckers alone, It's  a new day, welcome to my blog and enjoy.
