FOE & Tell: See, THIS Is Why We're Friends

Why do I love geeks, and the Epbot community in particular?

LET ME COUNT THE WAYS.


1) We knit Jayne hats for poodles

Shiny.

2) We celebrate Tiara Tuesdays:

(Sara has more incredible tiaras here on Instagram!)

3) And we also celebrate Friday Finishes:

(Follow Shara's FB page for more!)

Bonus #4) we love puns and groan-worthy jokes.

5) When we play dress up, WE PLAY DRESS-UP

Alison, I'm getting arti-choked up.

6) We're not afraid to get geeky in front of the muggles:

 

7) In fact, sometimes we roll initiative for our wedding vows:

8) We exchange cards and gifts several times a year honoring each other's passions and fandoms:

9) We're excited to embrace new fandoms and new fans!

10) We know we don't have to do anything big or impressive to connect with each other. Sometimes it's just about sharing those little life observations we all can relate to:

 These posts are all shared with permission from Fans of Epbot on Facebook, which is where the largest chunk of us interact. This community extends far beyond FOE, though; we also have a great group of about a thousand over on the Epbot Discord, and of course a legion of silent supportive types lurking in the shadows. I see you out there - yes, you - and I want y'all to know you're awesome and appreciated. Thanks for being here.

P.S. It's almost the end of the month, so remember to get your Squeegineer e-mail entries in! I've added about a dozen new pieces to the jewelry prize board this week, all looking for new homes, so please, COME TAKE MY STUFF.

This monthly give-away is my little way of saying thanks to all of you here for supporting Epbot. Anyone who donates to me and John via Paypal is automatically entered for that month, but everyone ELSE can enter by e-mail for free, details here. So, see, there's no excuse NOT to come take my stuff! Get those e-mails in, peeps! DO EEET.
