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.

Nerd jokesI am nerdy enough that I laughed out loud when a colleague told me the following (apologies if this joke is widely known already):
Q: What goes "Pieces of seven, pieces of seven."?
A: A parroty error.
The real shame of this is that I desperately want someone else to find it funny but none of my mates would get it.
p.s I also have a dymo labeller and have labelled every cable and relevant socket in the house. Kill me, kill me now!

A byte walks into a pub"You don't look very well" Said the barman
"Yeah", said the byte, "I'm suffering from a parity error"
"Ah", said the barman, "I thought you looked a bit off"

I prefer yours to be fair, as it ties in nicely with pirates, which are awesome
