Seems like today is many things, including Geek Pride Day. Science fiction aficionados would instead know this day as Towel Day.

This day was created in honour of the late Douglas Adams for his masterpiece, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy which is one of the best known science fiction novel series ever created.

Happy Towel Day to all the froods out there!
