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.

On a recent hikeI spotted some humongous mushrooms growing under a tree in one of the local parks. Impressed by them- the tops of these things were the size of a dinner plate- I shot some pictures, which I showed to the Lunatic Artist and my daughter.
As they looked at these pictures I began to do quick knee bends while moving my arms up and down and chanting "Badger badger badger badger..."
Guess what my daughter called me?
