May the 4th Be With You

 Are you a Geek? Are you a Nerd? Are you somebody who just pays attention to social media?

Then you probably know exactly what I mean when I say May the 4th be with you!

It's a Star Wars thing of course.

Many fandoms have started to come up with days that honor their fandom and the people who help to bring the fantasy to life but I don't know if any of them have gotten quite as big as May 4th has. In fact, their day isn't just the 4th, they also go into the 5th for Revenge of the 5th (although other people prefer to celebrate Cinco de Mayo), and often span the entire following week for promotional deals and gameplay!

I have never been hugely into Star Wars, but I am also not hugely into anything to be honest. I would say I am into Disney but do you realize just how much the Disney genre encompasses? It even covers the Star Wars franchise at this point! 

This isn't to say I don't enjoy the Star Wars series, I do, I even have one of the droids from the Depot at Hollywood Studios; but growing up, every kid in my family was kind of grouped into whatever fandom the picked out and were set into it, no overlapping allowed. So since one of my brothers was really into star wars and had most of the books for the series, I was not allowed to encroach on their territory.

Now that I am out on my own though I can start to get into more of those things I want such as the Star Wars franchise or finally catching up on Marvel.

That just takes a lot of time as they are constantly coming up with new content for the franchise.

So until then I enjoy the content I can and wish all the best and that the 4th may be with you!
