What's MST3K?
Ever watched a movie and made your own commentary to it? That's what this show is all about. MST3K is a comedy show from the '90s in which a guy and two robots are forced to watch terrible movies because a mad scientist wants to take over the world. To keep their sanity, they talk back and riff on the movies. A more detailed explanation can be found up at the SoL.

Some nerd-kus for your enjoyment, by me, for the ThinkGeek Haiku submission contest. Wrote them over lunch:
"Red vs. Blue" (a Doctor Who-ku):
Did you notice that
The Doctor's bowtie changes
Color with the time?
"A Day in the Life of a Killbot":
Target acquired
Put me down! Please put me down!
Aah, self-test error.
"Ponyquations":
Friendship is magic
Advanced science is magic
Friendship is science?
"Your Mom versus the Super NES":
Do you remember
Neglecting your chores, she screamed,
"I'M PULLING THE PLUG!"
"Empirical Evidence Requested":
Is it possible
For you to be less awesome?
This myth is busted.
Got any nerd-ku's to share? Post them in the comments!
