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 bought a Dungeons and Dragons starter kit in 2005.I tried to play with some of my mates, but none of us knew what we were doing, got bored, and it's never seen the light of day again.
Maybe one day I'll find someone kind enough to teach me.
misanthrope: Completely agree with you there. I can probably relate to 70% of the nerdy tales on here, although I never really got into trading cards or animé or any of that overhyped stuff.
