Welcome to Stay Cool, Geek.

How's your mid-life crisis going?

Are you running around aimlessly trying to dodge all the various daily challenges that come at you, out of nowhere, and with no end in sight? If you're like us, life can sometimes feel like a looping level of Robotron 2084.

And as we try endlessly to be the hero of our own story, helping those around us and ourselves- all we really want to do is dig through an old box of comic books, play some online games with friends, watch a mindless movie, go to a convention, or see an old band that's past their prime relive their glory for two hours underneath the falling sun with someone next to us that gets us. 

If that sounds like you, welcome.
