What makes you an uber-nerd?

[The Seldom Seen Kid]

Spending every Friday night with my cousin hosting a Brawl party for two.

[sub]We always play the same characters in the same colors on the same stage in the same orders with the same rules and the same items and the same inside jokes...[/sub]

[sub]"Same" sounds funny when I read it now.[/sub]


Oh right and I play Zelda music on the piano. All the time. Like, everyday.

 

[linkmastr001]

LARP'in. That is commitment to some serious RP'ing... I mean acting

indeed I tried that a few times, it was fun but I totally lacked the commitment.

Yea, im debating on trying it myself, but I don't think I'll have the commitment for it.

 

[wammnebu]

i played Europa Universalis during the entire superbowel party

 

[Jonny The Kay]

I play and DM D&D

 

[deleted_by_strongbad]

Wow these are all damn good. I know that by societal norms I shouldn't feel like this but most of these just sound like great suggestions next time I need something to do .

On that note, where does someone find an ocarina?

 

[loc978]

...I DM a D&D campaign, own a heron-mark sword [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heron-mark_sword] (among other blades), listen to nerdcore rap and remixed video game soundtracks while playing racing games... and I recreated something close to my actual daily driver in GT5...

 

[Dfskelleton]

The fact that I subconciously reference everything that I enjoy.
That, and I somehow find a way to bring Lovecraft into things.

I got mine from songbirdocarina.com. Fair prices, complete with an accurate OoT replica with a platinum plated band around the mouth! I have the Fairy Ocarina and a tai chi pendant ocarina. Even come with songbook tabs! Feel free to message me for online ocarina forums and the like, too!

OT: I not only play D&D, but spent my entire tax return buying everything I'll need to make an awesome gaming PC, and hooking it up to my 32' TV once it all arrives.

The fact that I adore anything Joss Whedon touches, and have a nerdy website don't help anything.

 

[rubinigosa]

Because I know almost everything from my science magazines and I have around 50-55 and that I often try to correct friends and family if I hear them say anything incorrectly , resulting in that my dad calls me a (freaking) lexicon.

 

[Thaliur]

I think for me it's the unsupressable tendency to freeze and stare whenever I see cool Transformers action figures or anything TRON-related.

Luckily, my girlfriend thinks these child-like moments are actually cute and doesn't mind as long as I can resist the urge to buy all these things and fill the flat with them.
It's a thin line.

 

[gostchiken]

I carry a full set of polyhedral dice on me at all times.

 

[katsumoto03]

My wedding ring is a custom-made Green Lantern ring made out of gold. I have an awesome wife.

You are my hero.

OT: My ability to babble on about random video game bullshit and forget that nobody gives a shit.

 

[Irradiated Tiger]

I keep up on all release dates, game info, game plot,even the ones I don't care about or have no chance of getting, watching game walkthroughs on any game I find interesting. Sometimes i wonder what I'm doing with my life. Then I remember this is my life and go back to surfing the interwebs.

 

[lokun489]

The games I have on me on average are, Yugioh, pokemon, digimon, and another jrpg at the moment TWEWY.

 

[GoldenMech]

The fact that I host a Minecraft server.

Its private, so don't ask.

 

[TioShard]

I turned down sex to play Age of Conan. Strangely enough I started hating the game a short time after anyway.

 

[xdom125x]

In my downtime, I research the Marvel and DC comic book mythology. I don't read many comic books but I can tell you about a few pivotal moments in their continuity.

My wedding ring is a custom-made Green Lantern ring made out of gold. I have an awesome wife.

That is friggin awesome.

 

[ReservoirAngel]

The fact that I have seen every Doctor Who episode that hasn't been lost due to BBC stupidity, own most of them on DVD, and have a semi-encyclopedic knowledge of the "Whoniverse".

For extra impact: I'm talking from the show's VERY first episode in 1963, to the present day. And add to that the fact that I'm only 19 years old.

 

[thenumberthirteen]

If you've seen my bedroom than you can be of no doubt over that fact. Where do I start?...

1) I have every episode of Stargate on DVD
2) Basically all my books are Sci-Fi novels (primarily Warhammer 40k fiction) or science based non-fiction (plus some comics)
3) I have a signed photo of Christopher Judge (from Stargate)
4) I own all 3 Star Trek Technical manuals (if geekiness was a crime those would be a signed confession)
5) And here's a picture of me dressed as a Sith

I'm the one on the left
