Somewhere in Mighty Mississippi The southern United States isn’t necessarily the first place that comes to mind whenever someone mentions geek culture, but geek culture is definitely thriving in key parts of the South.

Saa-Winggg, Battahh, Battahh!
Pee-Pee Pants City Unless you’ve been under a massive rock for the last six months, you’ve probably heard a thing or two about a dude named Negan and his girlfriend, Lucille (she’s not really his girlfriend, for you non-TWD fans). You might not even be a fan of The Walking Dead, but I’m sure thatContinue reading “Saa-Winggg, Battahh, Battahh!”
