Brother Tells Sister to Stay Out of Room, Sister Does This Instead

We at The Mary Sue represent sisters both eldest and youngest. Which is, in part, why we love this story so much. Because this kid, Brandon, went to summer camp for four weeks. His last words to his sister were “stay out of my room.” She did not obey, nor did any other member of their family. Or Dwight Schrute. Or Darth Vader.

Follow the jump for highlights from the gallery of pictures from Brandon’s room.

“My, what a spacious room you have bran! best. blanketfort. ever.”

“…yet intimate enough to be used as a cozy nightclub.”

The grandparents took a…siesta…in there, too, while he was gone.

Dwight made an appearance.

They celebrated Christmas without him. Ouch.

Some battles for intergalactic peace were fought.

As well as some long-deserved Pac-Man revenge.

Also, some gypsies came to stay, and they brought some lederhosen.

Toy Story happened. WIN.

Frankly, we kind of wish things as exciting as this happened whenever we went away for a few weeks. To view the whole gallery, go here, or here if you don’t have Facebook.

    Man I never would have gotten my family to go along with that idea. 

    And I didn’t realize that the guys from Toy Story were such heavy drinkers.

    I know, right? Buzz got drunk off imaginary tea.

    Wow look at you guys, posting from Reddit again and again. Seriously, most of this stuff isn’t even “girl geek” oriented anymore. I really wish you would put some effort into what had started to look like  a promising blog.

    What, is “girl-geek” really so different from “geek?”  Other than perhaps that more respect and notice of women happens to take place on this geek site than other geek sites?  Okay, they’re re-posting.  The internet is a rather self-referential space, in case you hadn’t noticed.

    Ugh why can’t my family be that well adjusted… and in such a big house.

    ..Best. Family. Ever. Ugh, I hate mine. They’d NEVER do something like this. Never ever.

    So, this story has geeky news, featuring females doing something cool. How is it not perfect for a feminist geek site?

    That is really awesome.  Also, Obi Wan has surprisingly nice legs for an old dude.

    I really want my room to look just like that pillow fort.

    I agree, but then I thought the Mary Sue was a stupid idea anyway – instead of simply making  Geeokosystem proper the tiniest bit more female-friendly, they chose to shove em off to their own separate room.

    “What, is “girl-geek” really so different from “geek?”  ”  Well it must be – after all the girls got their own space, didn’t they?  To prevent Geekosystem proper from getting cooties, I suppose.

    I guess you missed the part about “respect.”

    Putting aside the fact that you’re apparently assuming that Geekosystem won’t use things from the Mary Sue, isn’t the point of the Mary Sue basically a safe place where the female geeks of the internet don’t have to worry about getting grief for having the gall to be both female and geeky? So then they’re pretty much going to cover a good deal of the same ground, except there won’t be some awful person in the comments starting a days-till-legal clock or something.
