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.

Whenever I spill a cup of coffee, or drop toast jamside down on the floor -- I instinctively reach out to a phantom mousepad to click the 'Undo'button.

I do exactly the same.
Except with me, it's CTRL+Z. And I do it repeatedly. Every single day. For everything. Including things I've said, things I've written wrong on coursework (I reach for a DEL button) and occasionally I also reach out for the mouse while playing my Nintendo DS... :(

I've done a similar thing after
a heavy Oblivion session.
Burnt some toast I was cooking, and went to press "reload last quicksave"...
