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.

In all seriousness, I get a semi just thinking about my Ubuntu desktop.
Oh, and my CDs are alphabetised by artist, at my girlfriends insistence, after she claimed she could never find anything. What's wrong with sorting them by decade, genre* and then artist I want to know.
*In case you were wondering, genres were placed in the decade that saw their major flowering. Obviously
