How nerdy are you?This week Gary Gygax, co-creator of Dungeons and Dragons, died. A whole generation of pasty dice-obsessed nerds owes him big time. Me included.
So, in his honour, how nerdy were you? Are you still sunlight-averse? What are the sad little things you do that nobody else understands?
As an example, a B3ta regular who shall remain nameless told us, "I spent an entire school summer holiday getting my BBC Model B computer to produce filthy stories from an extensive database of names, nouns, adjectives, stock phrases and deviant sexual practices. It revolutionised the porn magazine dirty letter writing industry for ever.
Revel in your own nerdiness.

oh dear lord no!warhammer! Nooo! My rally team mate is a warhammer fan. I'm possibly not nerdy enough as I just don't get it...
(I traded my glasses for contact lenses, although from the age of 11-24 I had glasses, and from the age of 12-14 I had braces, and pretty much from birth I had asthma so I reckon I qualify as one, if not all, of the Goonies.)
Nerd girls are cool. Geek chic rocks.
