Well... I'm not actually "Geeky" or perhaps "Nerdy" enough (Is there really a difference? I mean really? ) to know about this, BUT I'm enough so to post about it after seeing it trending on Google Plus and seeing what it is.
Recently I listened to hitchhikers guide to the galaxy (which, by the way, is quite funny and, in my opinion, worth a read.) and so, apparently May twenty fifth (today) Is Towel Day. So created because it's the anniversary of Douglass Addam's death. (if you don't know he's the writer of aforementioned book) and in this book he talks about towels and some uses of such. For a few such uses see this picture. Anyways, yes, that's what day it is. BUT if you look at the title of this post it ALSO mentions star wars! Why is that? Because today is ALSO the anniversary of the release of Starwars: A New Hope which released may 25th 1977. So yeah, according to Wikipedia It's Geek Pride Day . I could also talk about the one other holiday listed... but it's about disk-world, a series which I have yet to read. So I won't.
Anyways, I thought that this day deserved a blog post, because it's awesome. :D
(and if it's not may 25th anymore... then pretend)
