How to Hack the Holidays


Geek is the new cool and I am here to today to show you how to put a little geek in your Christmas fun. That's not my family in the video above, but it could be. We fire up the tablets and cell phones (both iOS and Android because we're super geeks) and play our Christmas carols this way. We annoy the extended family with Facebook links to our performances of "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" and "Frosty the Snowman". Yep, we even wear hats like that. But we don't stop there...


Decoration the tree and making cookies goes to a whole ne level when you stop by Thingiverse and download the files to print amazing decorations and cookie cutters on your 3D printer. Or print your ornaments on a chocolate printer for some true girl geek fun. If Santa hasn't delivered your 3D printer, you can still show off your geek by snapping together a few Lego ornaments, or scavenge your old elcetronics for ornaments material.

And most important of all, those holiday cards should include a family photo of everyone wearing their avatar in the virtual word of your choice. :) That's Master Bond (kinky chef from The Dungeon Gourmet) in a loin cloth, hiding back there in the bushes. And Marcus (from Blind Heat) in leopard form.

Almost forgot...if you need a geeky stocking stuffer,  this should do the trick:
