What makes you a nerd?????

[Arisato-kun]

I play tons of video games.
I have over $1000 worth of manga.
I've watched over 60 different anime series.
I own four anime figures that are sitting on my desk. Hatsune Miku, Mikuru from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Haruka from Beat Blades Haruka and Hime Yarisakura from Yozakura Quartet.
I build Gunpla (models of mechs from the Gundam franchise.)
I'm currently listening to Karma by Bump of Chicken, a song that encompasses the 85% of J-music that makes up my Zune.
I have an encyclopedic knowledge of quite a few anime, JRPGs, Star Wars and Pokemon.
There is an awesome Kingdom Hearts II poster on the wall of my dorm.

That's me. Damn proud of it too.

[Grand_Arcana]

I can tell you every lightsaber fight that happend inorder starting with ep. 4-3

Bah, I know every lightsaber style, in great detail, and I can give you a rough example of their real life counterparts.

I have half a dozen Zoids custom built models, I know the name of most Pokemon, (I used to be able to do that horrible PokeRap too).

 

[Alex the Pally]

- I own every 4.5" Mobile Suit in Action released in the US, and several SEED and SEED Destiny figures (non of which were released in the US, sadly), and can give the names and model numbers of each and every one of them.
- I spend time researching modern fighter aircraft.
- I've been playing video game since I was 3 (Sonic the Hedgehog 2, natch)
- I love working with computers and other marvels of technology.
- I'm on The Escapist.

Make of that what you will.

I'm a hybrid nerd, a mix of quite afew stereotypes.

My nerdy sides are I play an ungodly amount of games, I can code in at least 5 languages, I have about 10+ books on computing (might not be alot compared, but it will grow in time ), I'm single? I'm quite nocternal and I read alot of web comics.

I make websites for a living.

Edit: I've posted on a forum more than 10 times.

What makes you think I'm a nerd?

 

[Ganthrinor]

I prefer to think of myself as a Geek, thank you.

 

[badgersprite]

I'm so nerdy I've had other nerds consider me cool. In fact, I even have fans. oO

I'm the douche who points out when TV medical dramas use incorrect procedures, or when the life-support systems look wrong.

I do maths problems for fun.

I bought a replica of Tidus' necklace from FFX, and drew a model for a working gunblade to explain to my friends how it actually worked.

I can tell you off the top of my head the differences between the types of weapons used by different countries in ancient and medieval history (with a pretty decent knowledge of WWI & WWII) - like the difference between the Guan Dao and the Naginata, and the legend behind the creation of the San-Jie-Gun.

 

[Slash Dementia]

Lots of nerds here, I feel not as nerdy as friends made me out to be... I love Star Wars, but not enough to remember every detail, same of Lord of the Rings. I like Shakespeare? Does that make me a nerd? Oh, and I also play video games a whole lot. Maybe I am a nerd...

 

[Lilani]

Everyday I go to ppg.snafu-comics.com to see if a new installment of PowerPuff Girls Doujinshi is out >.>; Also, I get pretty much every joke in the We Didn't Star the Flame War song from College Humor. And I know at least 3 dozen fonts by name.

 

[Nargleblarg]

Lets see here now where to begin...

-yesterday I was able to refrence half life in a class because the teacher asked if any of us knew what a Half Life was and I responded "the interval of time required for the remaining amount of the isotope to be half of the original amount" I scared the teacher
-right now I can look around my desk and see games like oblvion, fallout, al dawn of wars, command and conquer 1,2, and 3, all guild wars, and orangebox/all half life games
-I have posters of Mario, Altair, and Master Chief
-I'm on this website listing how nerdy I am
-I watched star wars before I could walk
-In 1st grade I carried around a star wars backpack with a plastic lightsaber in it (which was awesome)
-I could do the equivilant of 4th grade math when I was in 2nd
-I always and still am considered a nerd in school
-never had a girlfriend
-I have publicly discussed who was the better star trek captain
-I have time to fill out a list this long

I could list more but now I fear carpal tunnel from all of this typing.

 

[Joethelama]

I party hard.

that does not make you a nerd

 

[LooK iTz Jinjo]

I play games and have an above average intelligence level. Yet I go clubbing and drinking on a regular basis... Am I really a nerd?

 

[Synetric]

[Video Gone]

I party hard.

I don't think you get it...
So I will now say what really makes me a nerd. I play videogames A LOT, I'm a complete gadget geek, my phone has more pointless tools than Batman's utility belt, I could be bothered to find that .gif... the list goes on, actually, I'm involved in loads of nerdy discussions, loads a stuff, ya know?
Although I am from Cork (dacent!), have a girlfriend who's hot and smart, go clubbing, and have an EXTREMELY active social life, I am still a nerd.
Ask me how.
Wait, don't.

EDIT: "Ask me about Grim Fandango."
PICK UP
"I don't want everybody asking me about Grim Fandango."

 

[blackfrancis567]

I read wikipedia, enjoy fantasy RPGs, and still play the shit out of AoE2

 

[KjellKanon]

Mostly my anime collection.
The fact that I used 4-5 years of my life on World of Warcraft also helps!

 

[ix_tab]

I volunteer to help out at conventions! Also there's the gaming, the love of Transformers, anime/manga, the speed reading, and the glee at the minute details of cooking. I am such a food nerd, you don't even know.

Plus about 8+ hours a day online.

 

[NinjaRadiation]

I REALLY enjoy Maths.

 

[NinjaRadiation]

I also know Mace Windu's lightsaber form is called Vaapad.
