your nerdiest thing...

[Lukeje]

I always buy music on CDs

That's not nerdy. Buying the 3 vinyl deluxe special editions may however be nerdy.

 

[Grenbyron]

I cried when Flint died in the Heroes of the Lance Trilogy.

A close second is having sex with my girl and the Final Fantasy Soundtrack playing on the computer.

 

[Goldeneye103X2]

I enjoy alone in the dark, and i know quite a bit about games.

The first AITD created polygons on PC, starfox on console.

 

[Jammy111]

I seriously thought I was a nerd before I looked at this thread (not really, my head is far too swelled to allow any term which could be derogatory) but actually I can't really compare. My reasons:

I am OBSESSED with Zeppelins, I love the things.

I fence every week (foil)

I read books in amounts that must be measured in tonnes.

I write on forums (didn't see that one coming)

I can recite the whole of the To Be Or Not To Be Soliliquy. Or Jabberwock.

 

[eagle270878]

I have an annoying tendancy to randomly quote portal in the middle of a conversation or if the room's silent.

"Goodbye"

 

[WolfThomas]

I read that series as well and felt bad for Thick myself. But I was even more moved by certain events in the Wheel of Time series, such as Moraine's letter to Rand after her encounter with Lanfear at Cairhein and Perrin coming back to Emond's Field after the Whitecloaks had got to his family.

That last one especially got to me.

I don't know that I have a particularly nerdy trait. (I did play a lot fo tabletop RPGs when I was younger and still do once in a while.) I am proud to say I'm just a big dork in general. Although I have read The aforementioned series literaly dozens of times. I read it every time a new book is about to come out and usually a couple of times in between.

I don't remember ever crying reading the wheel of time, I think its because of the thirds perspective, I felt sad at those moments but more like a awkward witness then part of it, I almost cried a lot during the Farseers because the 1st person view was so personal.

I do remember moments that made me shiver with the sheer awesomeness and punch my fist in the air. When Nynaeve recruits the Malkeri survivors and the guy goes from cynical, to swearing to follow Lan.

I cried when Flint died in the Heroes of the Lance Trilogy.

Wait...Flints dies...Man I'm depressed now.

I only read the first two trilogies and the collection of tales.

 

[fryman]

I know a disturbing amount of information about LOTR and Star Wars.

 

[axia777]

I play table top RPG's. I guess that is the nerdiest thing I do.

I know a disturbing amount of information about LOTR and Star Wars.

Me too. So much that it disturbs the people I try to talk to about it. I have long since learned to to nerd out about Star Wars or LOTR to anyone else but fellow nerds.

 

[Snotnarok]

Probably technology in general for me, I've wound up with many consoles on my shelf because of it. Recently I bought a Sega CD because it's something that's escaped my collection for ages (price, didn't know there were any good games besides Sonic CD). But basically yeah, technology is my nerd trait/weakness.

 

[pointsofprotest]

I have tried to prove that math is delicious.

 

[Cinor]

I wear glasses
i Play WoW
Andi love to read books and correct my friends

 

[linchowlewy]

I run tabletop RPGS. GMing two of them. so that's easily my nerdiest thing.

 

[Vivvav]

I have an Ocarina of Time.

 

[Rolling 20]

I seem to be a relatively normal person....but I'm a massive Star Wars nerd and I love reading manga or watching anime. I find many of the story-lines far superior to anything the west has come up with.

 

[Mrsoupcup]

I like to be known as the spacecowboy.

 

[MercenaryCanary]

I once wore a trench coat with these dark blue glasses.
When asked why I wore such an attire I merely replied
"Remember, remember the fifth of November."

Another incident was when me and friend presented a presentation on the basic principles of zombies (tactics,biology,etc.) in front of the class. The teacher said it could be on anything as long as it included something about safety so we abused the meaning of her instructions.

 

[elbryan108]

Hmmm... Lets see, I have played D&D since the early AD&D days, DMed for many of those years, I read Terry Pratchett and get all of the jokes in the Discworld novels, I game more often than watch TV, I have a HUGE collection of Nerdcore on my Hard drive, my daily commute to school consist of a burned CD of WoW Music (Not the soundtrack, the fan made stuff, Nyhm etc..), I speak in Gamespeak with my Geeky wife, and much more important I married a Geek and have Geek kids!

 

[Drake the Dragonheart]

Let me see, well I do both D&D and White Wolf's original World of Darkness (i.e. hunter, vampire the masquerade, werewolf the apocalypse, etc.) I was/am both a player and a DM/storyteller. I for a time participated in Ampgard, I dream of fighting in the SCA. I remember numerous movie lines. I have almost all of Dragonheart memorized. Also I had a 3.67 high school GPA. I correct my friends English from time to time. I constantly tell my mom "Poet don't know it" (she can't stop rhyming for some reason)

 

[readingissexy]

I'm a serious bookworm.
I hate it when people use poor grammar or don't punctuate.
I'm considering majoring in Linguistics or the English language.
I edit all of my friend's papers for them.
I am Ezrianna Matoosi, quartermaster of the Poseidon's Wrath.

Everybody stops talking for a moment, then you'll hear "Shutting Down" in that jagged robot diction.
