I just saw an opinion piece somewhere talking about how we need to make tech nerdery “uncool” again, and looking at this poster, I gotta say… there is really something to that. This thing is insulting and gross and a huge waste of time and effort, and the longer I look at this stupid poster the more I dislike it and the event it is advertising. Fuck This Thing.

Ok, I’ll bite. Why? What about this poster is insulting and gross? Other than the obvious punk-band-throwback style?
