Are you a working professional or college student who prefers the company of other geeks? Do you find yourself frequently wishing there was some sort of watering hole for people like you who watch Adult Swim, revel in the joys of DDR/video games, read esoteric books, and indulge shamelessly in intelligent debate? Do you hate hipsters with an undying passion? Do you need people to drink shamelessly with in order to summon the courage to get on stage to croon in front of a large crowd of karaoke g …

Intelligence is undeniably attractive.  Although sometimes we tend to adore the more obvious choice in movies and magazines, we’ve secretly loved the smarty-pants for years. This is for nerds who understand that it's not the "bad" in bad boys that women crave, but rather the sense of "aliveness" that comes from thinking. This group is for nerderttes that understand and accept these men as they are. As bright, sophisticated women, mental stimulation is just as important as physical in our relatio …

The main goal of NYC Anonymous is to make fun of people. We have been doing it for a long time on an almost professional level, and we like to choose victims which really deserve to have their feelings hurt. Every once in a long while, there comes an entity deserving of ire. Whether they be guilty of human rights abuses, being royal pains in the ass, hateful exploiters, or just plain stupid, we take it upon ourselves to make their days worse. There's almost always a good reason, and the result …

You know who you are. White Wolf gamers that are long in the tooth. Cyberpunk players that remember 2013(!) ADnD folk that still have 1st ed sheets somewhere. We all played paper and LARP RPGs back in the day. We may dust off polyhedral plastic once in a while, when our too-cool friends and colleagues aren't looking. Our old game pals eBayed their books or went to crazytown and really believe they are sparkily vampires. Bottom line is almost no one we (want to) know still games and we cer …

Most people believe that black technologists are rare. I chose to believe otherwise. Why we exist: This meetup exists because I was damn tired of being the only black person at other tech meetups.

Here's what you need to know: We aim to be a network of developers in NYC interested in becoming better, learning from each other and networking. We mix hardcore computer science with s …
