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.

Oh.Seeing as you enjoy reading so much, you really owe it to yourself to read a bit of Pratchett, I guarantee that you will not be disappointed providing that you have a few brain cells to knock together and a sense of humour.
The first "Discworld" book is "The Colour of Magic" which makes a nice entry point into the series, but I'd also recommend starting with "Reaper Man" which is equally as good.
