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.

I don't completely understand the computer posts either.But that's why I have Google at my disposal, if I get curious enough.
b3ta is a pretty inclusive place as a rule, but sometimes you have to work at it. Took me ages to learn the slang used on here, but urbandictionary.com and other sites that Google popped up helped.
And if you don't feel like working that hard to understand the posts- well, you can't blame us, knowwhatimean?
