From Andrew: While living on the west coast, I discovered the "Geek Club", a place for all things to please the inner geek in all of us! When I moved out here, I wanted to find something like that and I started this group. Our event types are really dependent on what the members ask for. Video games, museums, boardgames, movies & book discussions, it's all fair game! The group is open to all ages, genotypes, prototypes, and even meeples! From Michael:  Lived here all my life, and wanted to help …

We are the oxymoron to the geek and nerd stereotype - the "social" nerds and the "chic" geeks. Sure, we love Battlestar Galactica, but that doesn't mean we can't hold our own at a high class social function. Yes, we can debate the finer points of whether Han shot first, but we can also jump into the fray and talk about the latest in pop culture. Although we can explain the relation between a "Hobbit" and a "Halfling" to someone, it doesn't mean that we locked ourselves away from society and stud …

Interested in meeting some cool nerds? That depends on who you define as a nerd, you may ask. You also may wonder who is welcome in the Geeks and Gaymers (spelling intentional) group. While my intention is to create a more LGBT-inclined group of friends, straight allies are very welcome as well. Nerds? Anyone who enjoys any or many of a plethora of interests, including but not limited to: Board Games, Science Fiction (Books, Films, TV, etc), Fantasy (Books/Graphic Novels, Films, TV), Speculative …

This is a group dedicated to bringing geeky, nerdy, and super awesome people together to rejoice in our passions! I don't want to scare away non Whedon fans (if there is such a thing...), but my favorite fandoms are all from him so that's where I went with the tags. But I wouldn't limit events to that one area, we can diversify! There are a ton of amazing nerdy Meetup groups, but I was hoping to make some events closer to home in Columbia, rather than Baltimore or DC. Really, all of Howard Count …

I know there are some nice, liberal brainiacs out there in Bethesda...and I think it's past time for everyone to meet up! If you are an open-minded dork, geek, science nerd, etc (you get my drift) but you also love being social and having a glass or two of wine, come on out and enjoy a happy hour with like-minded folks. This is an extension of the original young-professional-centric BNW, put in place for those nerds who have emailed BNW about the typical age range and decided to not join because …

I know there are some nice, liberal 20s-30s brainiacs out there in Bethesda...and I think it's past time for everyone to meet up! If you are an open-minded "young professional" dork, geek, science nerd, etc (you get my drift) but you also love being social and having a glass or two of wine, come on out and enjoy a happy hour with like-minded folks.

Nerdfighteria is the community that sprung up around the VlogBrothers on YouTube - brothers John and Hank Green. We believe in the nerdy-life, making the world a better place, and just having a blast while we do it. The general community tends to skew to a younger demographic, so Adult Nerdfighters began a few groups on Facebook to connect with other likeminded awesome people in their own age group. We thought that a Meetup group would be the best way to organize events and shenanigans! If you t …

People can also bring their Xboxes, Wii's, and other consoles to play as well.
