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.

Not a nerd......although I nearly managed to rip my own arm off, trying to make a powered exoskeleton.
Also, in an attempt to make one of those muscle-stimulating machines (Why pay good money for something you can make yourself?) I hurt myself quite badly. Turns out you need a lot less power than my calculations suggested. Unfortunately, turning the power off again was hindered by having decided to connect BOTH arms up to the prototype. So; Not a nerd, just thick.
