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.

bonus deus!I got a "U" at "O" level, because I copied Andrew Kemp-Luck's homework for two years, as did the rest of the class, until the day he cunningly stitched all of us up by writing a fake translation for everyone to copy, leaving the genuine translation for himself...
Which frankly impressed me so much I forgot to beat him up for it.
My latin now extends about as far as the sarcastic pirate in the Asterix books...
