Feb 26
Back in the day, we used to just like stuff every week. We still like stuff, but now we mix in links, videos and other random claptrap. We call it the Bin, and it will steal your heart away.
True Geek Confessions: The Master List
Feb 17
Unpopular opinions: we can haz them. Sometimes you stand alone in loving a super niche-y run of a popular comic book series. Sometimes you’re the only person on the entire planet to ’ship a certain ’ship. Sometimes you simply Do Not Get a movie the rest of your geeky brethren is falling all over themselves about. And because a lot of fandom is about sharing loves and hates and communing with your fellow geeks, this can feel awfully lonely.
That’s why we decided to challenge a bunch of nerdbloggers to spill their darkest secrets, their True Geek Confessions, for all the internet to see. Perhaps if we all confess together…well, we’ll feel just a little bit better.
This post will serve as a master list of all the True Geek Confessions posts appearing across the web — check back, as it will be updated throughout the day. And if you have a link to share, email sarah AT alertnerd DOT com.

The Bin — 2/12/10
Feb 12
Back in the day, we used to just like stuff every week. We still like stuff, but now we mix in links, videos and other random claptrap. It’s like the Cold Stone Creamery of nerd-dom; we call it The Bin, and we’ve gotta have it.
Lost 6.3, “What Kate Does”
Feb 10I’ve seen a fair bit of “worst.episode.ever” style commentary on last night’s Lost, but most of the other far superior reviewers and commentators than I seem to fall more in the mediocre-to-good camp.
I’m somewhat between THOSE two camps, leaning toward bad-to-mediocre, with a full understanding that perhaps my problems with “What Kate Does” are more my problems than the show’s problems, and perhaps I need some TV therapy or something.
