Default Geek cred

So you have to read Lord of the Rings and Hitchhikers Guide. And see at least the original three Star Wars movies. To not loses you geek cred. What are other things you've got to do (or not do) for full geek cred?

Geek cred is bullshit. Specifically any sort of "criteria".

Yeah, I've seen/read all of those. I think watching and enjoying TRON is a part of it too... but like that other Albertan said, it's like indie cred: All bullshit. So what if i didn't see Modest Mouse before they were signed or that The Moon and Antarctica isn't my favorite album. I love it all.

Agreed - who cares? I don't like Star Wars, Matrix, Harry Potter. So now what?
