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.

I'm alwyas being told I'm a nerd.The most recent reasons given for my nerd status (both by my dad) were that I wear glasses on my head even though I don't need them but because I think they make me look smart (geek chic, if you will) and because I admitted I go on the Oxford Dictionary website to read about obscure words for fun.
It is fun, dammit.
