If you give me half hour to prepare, I could easily absorb your entire life with questions...xdom125x said:
If I was ever going to marry a woman, she'd be like that...that way she wouldn't mind all my nerdy wedding ideas.Crimson_Dragoon said:

OT: Probably the fact that I don't care what people think, I'll still break out singing the original Pokemon theme song on the bus randomly.
I write fanfiction, play D&D, have a large collection of RPGs for the NES, Super NES, N64, Gamecube, Wii, Game Boy, GBA, DS, and Sega Genesis, have replicas of the Master Sword, Hylian Shield, and the Ocarina of Time, and have watched more anime than would probably be considered healthy.
Though...I DO have a friend with more geek cred than I do. His dad was friends with and played D&D with Dave Arneson. Yes...THAT Arneson.

my encyclopedic knowledge of fable 1 2 and 3, boarderlands, oblivion, diablo II (and some one), dragon age and finally dead rising 2
Besides having the badge to prove it? Well I guess the low-level tournament Magic: the Gathering, the love of RPGs tabletop and otherwise, the fact that I game all night and sleep all day and have no social life of any note would do it.
Oh, and considering where I've grown up, it's a miracle and a sign of true nerd-dom that I know any grammar at all. It's not perfect, but damn it I know how to form a sentence!

several reasons:
1. I am to videogames as an addict is to heroin but worse.
2. I have drawn up several D&D characters, but have never actually played the game (apparently, D&D groups near me don't trust evil characters, neutral, lawful or chaotic)
3. I live by the Sith doctrine, and try to apply its core ideas (might makes right, the strongest rule, you rise according to merit, etc.) to my every day life.
4. I read books like I breathe oxygen, often and repeatedly.
5. my favorite sandwich is PB & J
6. I'm taking Visual Basic as a sophmore in high school. currently one of the top students
7. I despise showers. See #1 for why
8. I posess the vocabulary of an old British scholar
9. According to my sister I talk like someone from the 1800's
10. my worst enemy? jocks and cheerleaders. why cheerleaders? they're so cheery... p.s. my sister's a cheerleader. (we're mutual sources of shame)
11. Diehard Pepsi fan, down with Coke.
12. My dream job, since about 7 years old, has always been between presidency and a computer programmer

That is either the most awesome thing I have ever heard, of the single DORKIEST thing I have ever heard. Most likely both.Crimson_Dragoon said:
As for me, I don't really have a SINGLE thing that summs up my nerdiness, I'm more of a "buffet"-type nerd, indulging in basically everything nerdy (short of Harry Potter and DnD, oddly enough).
I've played a bunch of JRPGs, I've got a decent-sized collection of dvd boxsets, I've got manga and anime, my desk is currently occupied by a bunch of Beast Wars Transformers (specifically Tarantulas, Rattrap, Dinobot, and Rhinox, if you must know), I've got a desk drawer full of Power Ranger morphers, posters on my wall for Kingdom Hearts, South Park, and Nightmare Before Christmas, a Batarang with a full set of Lanturn Corp rings, a Death Note, a rather large collection of Batman movies (missing only a few of the animated ones and Batman Begins), and a huge stack of Magic: the Gathering and Yugioh cards.
The Fact that I have an extensive knowledge of Kingdom hearts, am a Squenix *****, and I'll be 20 years old still playing Pokemon.

I have considered getting a lifetime membership to Dragon*Con
I collect Nightmare Before Christmas Home Decor
I can quote Monty Python or Dr. Horrible
And I could go on for a good while. It's safe to say I am a card carrying uber nerd
