This is a question 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.

@ Enzyme ^^^
I'm afraid you might find difficulty translating that, as I've done it with *special* Yoda-grammar ;o)

I said (in Yoda's accent of course)
"May it be with you...The Force....
rhmmmmm...."

If you wanted to say it properly, i.e. "May The Force be with you", it would be
"H Dinami va einai mazi sou (s) / sas (pl)"

I also like to do the odd Greek Darth Vader impression, which involves breathing diagonally into a pint glass, preferably 1/7 full of real ale....

"Oi dynameis sou einai adinates, geronta" = "Your powers are weak, old man"

And I thought I didn't have a geeky bone in my body....
