Geeks of little imagination may decide to dress as their favorite old-school video game character, such as Mario, Link, or Pac-Man. The more discerning may opt for a beast or creature from Dungeons and Dragons or Magic: The Gathering. While these options are not bad, gamer-geek costumes are heavily frowned-upon by geek purists.
Geek purists may instead choose to depict a mathematical theme with friends, such as wearing t-shirts with numbers printed on them. When they line up in the correct order, they could be prime numbers, pi, or Einstein's famous mass-energy equivalence formula.
Overly-inventive geeks may decide to go all out and create intricate costumes of various the gadgets, from iPods to Blackberries. Give a creative geek a refrigerator box, a roll of duct tape, and some markers, and they will be entering the room sideways as the latest hand-held device. Old-school geeks might also employ this tactic, arriving as a Tandy2000 or antique Compaq.
No matter what a geek decides to wear for Halloween, you can be sure he or she will not be vying for the vampire fangs or Elvira wigs.
