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.

Ooo! Ooo! I went to Latin summer school TWICEOnce to help with GCSE, once for the fun of it when I wasn't doing any more Latin at school. We did Catullus, so it was actually quite fun.
I was shocked when so many of Caecilius's (sp?) family died. Aren't Quintus and Grumio the only survivors, or have I mixed that up?
