A place for all things geek...

Here are a couple “Yo Momma So Fat” jokes (geeky style) that came out of a conversation with my 11 year old. If you are easily offended by “Yo Momma” jokes, then don’t read this post. Megatron’s Momma so fat that when she transforms, she turns into a DUMP TRUCK! Darth Vader’s Momma so fat, […]
