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've worked in the technology sector for 15 years.So I've had ample time to adopt a cornucopia of nerdy modus vivendi the nerdiest of which are listed below.
1. I saw a car bumper sticker recently which read "users are losers" and I had no idea it was referring to drugs.
2. The company I work for has a dress down day on Friday, the T-Shirt I wore had the slogan "You had me at EHLO" on the front.
3. I heard a joke about UNIX the other day and laughed until my bladder gave way.
4. My car has so many gadgets in it that it resembles Darth Vader's bathroom, and it takes me a full 20 minutes to remove them all whenever I leave the car unattended, which is particularly inconvenient when you're just popping into the co-op for some more OXY cream.
5. The last and only sexual congress I had with a member of the female sex was when I ejaculated across the face of Debbie from Milton Keynes in Readers Wives.
6. I think socks and sandals are airy and comfortable.
7. I wear glasses so thick it takes light a full 3 seconds to penetrate them. I am, therefore a very slow driver.
More Later.........
