This week’s League topic is sure to bring about a lot of gasps and shaking of heads, but I think it’s healthy to clear the air every now and then.
This week’s league topic:
—-
What is something you absolutely hate or love or just don’t get, or maybe it’s something you have never even seen or read. What is your deepest, darkest geek confession?
—-
Once you put up a post on your site add a comment below with the URL. Next Monday, I will put up a post here on Cool & Collected with a list of all the contributing blogs. Once that list is posted, if you haven’t already done so, try to incorporate at least three of your fellow League members’ links (but more would be great!) into the article you wrote on your site.
By cross-posting like this, we will help each other out by sending new readers to each other’s sites. Have fun!
(Wondering what the heck this is all about? We’re recruiting for this loose-knit, rag tag crew! Here are the details for joining The League.)

Brian says
Great post to kick off this week’s assignment! (I liked Lost’s ending too.)
Memoriesoftoymorrow says
Thanks!… and BTW thanks for doing this, it really helps newcomers like me to get some traffic and connect with some outstanding Bloggers ! …and the topics stretch the writing skill in a different (and creative) direction 🙂
Brian says
Thanks for saying that Michael! I know the whole League concept has worked out well for me, and I’m glad to hear that others are seeing results as well.
The Pizza says
hey, I’m proud to finally be able to to contribute to “the league”

Brian says
It’s so great to have the Pizza on board! You’re the only one I know who can mingle Mario and Papa Hemingway in a single coherent piece. 😉
TL says
TURN IT UP!

Brian says
wow. Somebody please tell me I’m not the only one who has no memory of these guys.
Reis O'Brien says
I’m with you, Brian. never heard of this.
Ashley says
Nope don’t remember this one at all!
Memoriesoftoymorrow says
I never have, but then again I’m a big GWAR fan so………
christopher tupa says
Oh boy, here is mine; hopefully I’ll still have some friends after this 🙂

Brian says
hooboy! You certainly laid yourself out there Chris! 😉 Don’t worry though, I think my confession will drop just as many jaws. (You and I can still be friends. We can sit at the table off to the side in the cafeteria together– “cafeteria Siberia.”)
Ashley says
My overly apologetic geek confession!
Ashley says
And now for the link:http://www.lifewithfandom.com/2012/05/league-geek-confessions.html
Brian says
No apologies needed, Ashley. Think of this as the confessional booth in church–we’re not here to judge as you spill. (Yeah, right!)
Reis O'Brien says
I’m completely with you on this, Ashley! I don’t really get this, either.
Reis O'Brien says
Okay… I owned up…

Brian says
Best thing I’ve read in a long time (I won’t spoil the topic here): “I once stumbled onto an old episode as a kid … and I immediately felt like I had just been inappropriately touched by a clown that smelled like cigars.” LOL!
Reis, I side with you 100% on all the points you presented, and I’m beginning to think you are my long lost brother.
Reis O'Brien says
I think I saw you at the last family reunion, right? 😉
Ashley says
Torn on this one. The argument is sound though!
Stacey says
I’m with you on the last point. I never got why there was so much hatred towards them.
ClaymationWerewolf says
This is a fun topic! I might have to post another “normal” blog on this one (The League is really ruining my reputation as a weirdo blogger!) Anyway I’ll try to get started on this one tonight. I’m loving everyone’s posts on it so far by the way!
flywheels says
Another great topic. Here is my response – AFA!

Brian says
An excellent topic for discussion!
Claymation Werewolf says
Alright everybody, I present what will probably be my final blog after the geek mobs with their pitchforks and torches storm my castle. Been nice knowing you!
http://claymationwerewolf.blogspot.com/2012/05/claymation-werewolf-true-confessions.html
Brian says
I was right there with you until you posted the comment “Never seen Goodfellas, Any of the Godfathers, Scarface etc…” (shakes head and sighs loudly)
Michael May says
Mine’s up!

You and Iok have something in common (see below).
Adam Ruane says
It is what it is…nothing more, nothing less. preemptive apologies to all!

Brian says
Oh man, you touched on a little bit of everything here. 😉
fong sam says
I, hereby, surrender my (fake) geek card:
http://haxbee.com/2012/05/17/the-league-geek-confessions/
Brian says
Seeing what others have posted this week, i think you can safely slip that card back in your wallet.
FijiMermaid says
Ok, I put it all on Front Street. Be ready, be aware, be warned.

Brian says
I’m totally with you on 50% of your rant.
Brian says
I’m in and ready to feel “the Wrath”: https://www.coolandcollected.com/my-geek-confession-live-long-and-prosper-pffft/
Iok says
My – rather late – contribution:
http://that-figures.blogspot.com/2012/05/feature-loeb-geek-confessions.html
Brian says
Careful, Iok. I think flywheels may end up pounding on your door later today. 😉
Iok says
Let them come. I have buckets of water. RUST YOU METAL-FACED FREAKS!
flywheels says
Already left my rant response on his blog!
Kevin Hellions says
I’m on it, and I am opening myself up for some hazing here.

Brian says
So your biggest confession is not having enough time to read/watch everything you want? Well then I confess too. 😉
