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.

Pi in the face? ( It's not very funny. I should know. It's nerd humor.)
Friend #3 : Hey guys, I memorized Pi to the 13th decimal.
Me: Prove it.
Friend #3: 3.141592653579.
Me: Shouldn't that be 3.1415926535 EIGHT 9?
Friend #2&3: DORK!!
Me: ...assholes.=( *cries*
And if the way I even posted this message doesn't convince you of my nerdiness, I dunno what else will.
...I'll go back to my lurk mode now.

Where's friend #1?
Did s/he vanish? Or just get bored of talk of pi?

Moreover...
Why does someone else's failure to recite pi make you cry?
