Haaaaaaappy Chinese New Year! This is the year of the dragon , so be sure to get out there and fly around breathing fireballs to your heart’s content. Maybe even stockpile a big ol’ mound of gold and then just sit on it in a cave. Man, I would totally do that. This is a video of the China Disabled People’s Performing Art Troupe performing the Thousand-Arm Guan Yin . It’s extra impressive because all the performers in the troupe are deaf. You? You can hear just fine but you dance like you’re drowning. Hit the jump for two worthwhile videos.

Today, May the 4th, is Star Wars Day . Why? Because of the popularity of the pun, ” may the fourth be with you.” Embarrassing as shit, I know. Kidding, I’m just jealous I didn’t come up with it. Or did I? *firing up time machine* “Go back and kill Jar Jar while you’re at it!” The one in the picture? “That’s Yoda.” You sure? I thought that was a gremlin and I was being ironic. “Ha — you wouldn’t know irony if you licked a skillet!” What you did there: I see it, and I approve . HAPPY STAR WARS DAY YOU DIRTY WAMPAS! Thanks to Julian, c-nast, gina, Captain McHargue, Toka and everyone else who sent this who I might have missed — may the cinco de Mayo . Amidoinitrite?

Readers, I though I’d take a second out of my busy schedule laying in bed to wish you all a happy and safe fourth of July. So get out there and grill something or whatever the hell people do to celebrate. And before you goobers begin the America trolling, remember: some countries don’t even have fireworks. Have a great fourth everybody and I’ll be back tomorrow. Possibly from the hospital! Be safe (you only get 10 fingers), The Geekologie Writer

I’d like to take this time to thank all the servicemen and women who have given their lives so that I can write without fear or censorship. And to those still serving: keep up the good work, and come home safe. Here’s to you, The Geekologie Writer

This is a short video from the live-feed at NASA showing the group responsible for bombing the moon celebrating after a job well done. Just watch red shirt there get snubbed by black shirt after initiating a high-five sequence. THEY EVEN MAKE DIRECT EYE CONTACT. Geez, talk about awkward . I’ve only aborted a high-five once, and that was because I knew the guy didn’t wash his hands after using the bathroom. Seriously bro, I’m not touching your junk. Youtube Thanks to Martyn, who has never been denied a high-five BECAUSE HE WILL RIP YOUR ARM OFF AND DO IT HIMSELF IF YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT IT.
