Finally Geeks Available in Action Figure Form
Treebiter1 writes "Happy Worker, a specialty toy developer, has introduced a new action figure the "GeekMan Action Figure." Billed as the "a hunk o' hunk of nerdly love." His "super powers" include ungodly coding abilities; opposite sex repulsion; analytical reasoning; ability to create technical acronyms; less than ideal personal hygiene routine. This is kind of an oddity, perhpas I should say it is an oddity, but it might make a funny gag gift."
Microsoft came out with those action figures a while back... I don't think you can get them anymore though. There were three I think.
But does it fart like RMS?
Where do I sue for unauthorized use of my likeness?
It'd be cool to be able to fight Darl McBride being Linus =)

Do not buy a Geekman!!
Since receiving mine for Xmas, I've had nothing but trouble with him!!!
In January, I got a subpoena from the RIAA, saying I was sharing music online (bunk,.. it was Geekman!)
In February, he got sued by SCO for infringing o some kind of pocket pencil holder device!!
In March, he locked himself in my office for a week and a half,... and took my Xbox in there with him!
In April, my family woke up to find all our network logon passwords changed, and we couldn't get online for days.
And, so far, in May, my coffee bill has tripled!!!
This Geekman is nothing but trouble,.. don't buy one!
I'm gonna have to go spelling nazi on you, and point out it's 'frist psot'
...a Goatse doll is just around the corner.
