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.

well..
..i'm getting a QR Code tattoo done that says "1337" when I scan it on my phone
I'm hacking my N95 to update a facebook app with my GPS coords
I have a USB toy attached to my server that flaps its wings when people visit my site - I coded it and still giggle when it goes off
I own 3 lasers and am trying to use them to write rude words on clouds
I can send email just using telnet (and have done)
*deep breath*
I figured out the solution to a particularly annoying Perl problem whilst having sex *and* stopped to write it down
yeah i'm done
