Who Let The Nerds Out?
We nerds are awesome. And we know how to throw a party. This year, my friends and I basically had Halloween in February when I invited everyone to wear any costumes they might wear to comiccon (superheroes, Star Trek, LOTR, etc.) and I prepared some nerd delicacies.
Me in my River Song costume and my partner in crime Michelle as a weeping angel. She was scary as hell.
Some nerd food we had at the party:
Fishsticks and custard
Bow tie pasta salad (bow ties are cool)
"Spaceballs" dill-covered cheese balls
"Aspic" of the demon (a SUPER esoteric Buffy reference. If you get it, you're a champ)
At Beer Trek one night, Michelle made a gingerbread Borg ship. Next Christmas our plan is to make a gingerbread TARDIS.
At about midnight we unleashed the pièce de résistance: The Death Star Piñata. This was pretty much the worst-looking Death Star ever, but it DID take me 3 days to make. In this video you can also see everyone's costumes. You've got River Song (me), Superman, female Luke Skywalker, Hipster Leia, Storm, and Harry Potter among others.
Here's a picture of Bridget as Amy Pond standing in front of the TARDIS (aka the bathroom).
As a conclusion to this silly post is my very own Doctor Who Drinking Game. It's very comprehensive and it's super long. But if you've ever played Beer Trek, you know how it is. As it is with Beer Trek, you can also make rules for individual episodes, such as, "drink every time you hear "the sound of drums" in Utopia".
DOCTOR WHO DRINKING GAME
When "it's bigger on the inside" (2 drinks when "it's smaller on the outside")
When the sonic is used (2 drinks when the sonic doesn't work)
When the psychic paper is used
When the TARDIS lands in the wrong place or time
When the whole world is in danger (2 drinks when the whole universe is in danger)
When there's a crack in the universe
When we see or hear the words "Bad Wolf"
