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.

Pub Quiz
On a monday my local does a pub quiz, trouble is there's a shit 'quiz fortunes' round where basically you give 4 answers to each question in a family fortunes style way.
Anyway.
A few weeks back one of the questions was "Name a relation" to which my response was an off the cuff "One-to-many". I honestly didn't realise for a few seconds why everybody on my table was looking at me funny.
