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 a Cambridge undergrad. I do Theology. Not too nerdy sounding yet. I do Classical Hebrew (currently only 2 in the University doing this, including me). I play Unreal Tournament. I taught myself HTML and my knowledge of IT surpasses my employer's. My closest friends are physics and Computer Science undergrads (the only reason I don't do either subject is due to flea brain IQ).
All this, AND I'm female.

do you ever come to JSoc? (If you go to Chabad, they have cookies for dessert this week, I can smell them from here and they smell good)
(Oh dear, you don't have the doddery old tutor who doesn't actually know Hebrew so gives you everything in academic transliteration?)
