It’s been a good year for geeks. Over the last decade or so, many beloved cult TV shows have met an early demise because they didn’t appeal to the masses. Recently, however, geek culture has become more socially acceptable, and now I can’t walk down a hallway at my college without tripping over someone watching…
Private Internet Access is a VPN connection for obscuring web footprints, and its creator—a company called London Trust Media—very generously gave Geek Insider a three-month trial run to see how we like it. Accordingly, my task was to give it a try and let you know my thoughts. I was rather looking forward to it,…
When planning out a camping trip, it’s better to be safe than sorry when it comes to your gear list. Whether you are setting up a tent in a nearby campsite or going on a weekend hiking or climbing trip, you should prepare yourself for dangerous situations, no matter how unlikely they may be. Along…
Eating spaghetti while watching Bones was a mistake, but it paled in comparison to the grave error I made in watching Fringe while eating chick pea soup which, apparently, strongly resembled the brains melting out of an unfortunate man’s orifices.

People can become bitter, rage against the universe (or network) that brought them such misfortune, and complain about their…
While my friends decided to book a party bus for a Clearwater trip and I know it’s going to be a BLAST, I couldn’t help having an internal mental debate on what would be the ultimate vacation. I’m definitely a fan of fun in the sun so it’s no wonder that at first my thoughts…
It’s that time again! The time when I realize a box full of amazing Loot Crate contents has been dropped on my desk, just waiting for me to squeal with delight while I sort through everything. Take a look at what the Loot Crate February 2014 Warriors! theme has to offer: As you can clearly see,…
Netflix has been catching a lot of flack these days for their recent lack of content, and understandably so. Even with the hundreds of titles available at any given moment, there is always something missing for someone out there. This on demand service has transformed the way we watch everything from blockbuster hits to little…
If you’ve been on the internet at all in the last week, you’ve probably heard about Twitch Plays Pokemon. Previously this month TwitchTV, an online streaming platform used primarily for Let’s Plays and live game footage, began hosting their noble experiment, Twitch Plays Pokemon Red and Blue.
