Always loved XKCD as do my kids (yeah, we're all geeks). Looks like he knows a bit about gyros; a very succinct description.

You do know that regular reading of XKCD is proof that you are a geek/techno-weenie? Most "normal" people have never heard of XKCD.

Best of luck,

All the cool kids keep enthusiasm rationed
Right down to the last explosive ounce
But I’d rather indulge my many passions
Even if my squaritude is overly pronounced

Perhaps I do not strike you as a geek
Without the horn-rimmed glasses or knee-high argyle socks
But nerdery is more than wardrobe-deep
And I’m a nerd down in my heart, and that’s where nerdhood rocks....
