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.

Lady Geek
My scientific calculator broke, I immediately sent out a twitter to my friends explaining that it must be a sine. (note one geek humor)
I attempted to chat up the guy at the bottle shop and some how ended up telling him that
"the reason I don't use plastic bags is because I'm scared of being persecuted by an imaginary future environmental council" (note two inability to communicate with opposite sex)
Back living with folks, check! (note three inability to hold down permanent accommodation or employment)
