Understanding Athelind's Argot: Geek Mail

[athelind]

Geek Mail: Buttons and badges with "clever" and usually deeply inbred sayings that so completely cover a t-shirt, vest, or jacket that they actually act as armor.

(Technically, this should be called "Geek Brigandine", since "mail" properly refers only to chainmail. Pointing out that detail, however, will only reveal you as a bigger geek than the person wearing it.)
