Militant Geek Custom Shirts

Kevin Rose and Alex Albrecht are geek stars. Whether it was their first work on the ill fated TechTV, Kevin’s founding of the social news site Digg, or their weekly technology netcast, Diggnation they continue to cement their place in Geeks celebrity pantheon with their frequent and lucid rants discussions. If you replace the sometimes obscenity laden podcast with a family friendly alternative its almost as if they were reciting Shakespeare. For example, take this passage from Diggnation Episode 82, approximately 12:40 in:

KR: Netflix has never faulted me.
AA: (snickers)
KR: They always been good to me. They’ve always been sweet.
AA: Ya, but where is your Netflix Internet Download?
KR: (pauses) It’s not there for the Mac yet.
AA: (shocked) It’s not even there for the Mac?!
KR: No
AA: OH MY GOD!
KR: Ya, so now Netflix is starting to fault me too.
AA: Netflix just FAULTED you.
KR: I know.
AA: You’re getting it from all ends Kevin!
KR: I know.
AA: You’re getting faulted in every orifice you got!
KR: All right, lets stop using the f word - there’s little kids.
AA: Oh.
KR: So if you’re a little kid and you just heard us do all that then -
AA: Fault means Teddy Bear.
(both break into incomprehensible giggles)
AA: That’s awesome.

Tech discourse at its finest. If only Brian Williams and Tim Russert had this kind of witty banter network evening news wouldn’t be in the danger that its in.
