I'm a nerd because I'm a fangirl.

I'm a nerd because the first song I learned to play on guitar was the boss battle theme from Final Fantasy VII.

I'm a nerd because I judge movies and TV shows on their historical accuracy.

I'm a nerd because I'm a geek for literature and analyse the crap out of everything to look for deeper meaning.

I'm a nerd because I'm an internet person. I haven't met a meme I don't know.

I'm a nerd because I watch documentaries instead of drama, and subsequently I know way too much useless information.

I'm a nerd because both my parents are doctors, so I know a lot of medical jargon.

I'm a nerd because I'm one of those dorky political activist types.

I'm a nerd because other nerds have seen my nerdy qualities and some of them dubbed me their Queen. I'm nerdy enough to have a fanclub of nerds.

I hum 8-bit music. ALL. THE. TIME.

Also, I like to talk about video games, to everyone. Spend most of my time on the computer, and am most definitely addicted to it and video games.

I memorise lines in TV shows and movies (mostly just because I have a really good memory anyway, but still...).

I would play DnD if I knew anyone who actually did play.

Oh I know I'm a huge nerd, mostly is because my memory absorbs anything stupid that I come across.

-I know a lot about older consoles and can fix them.

-I watch Star Trek The Next Generation and can either understand what they're saying or call them out on their lines.

-I build my own PCs/fix others.

- I'm working on a sci-fi/fantasy comic that is nerd-tastic.

- I listen to 16 bit game music and enjoy it.

-Did I mention I listen to 16-bit music? As in Sega/SNES?


-etc

-etc

I prefer Geek, seeing as the term "Nerd" tends to bring thoughts of the intellectual to mind.
If you wish a reason to call me this "Nerd" I do tend to make virtually all of my socialization here at the Escapist, socialization withthe outside world happnes once a week for 1-2 hrs, twice a week maybe.

I'm a nerd because because I have to wear glasses to watch TV
I have to wear glasses to see period, guess that could be added to the list, damaged eyes (Most likely permanently) from playing massive amounts of games since early childhood.

Can't really think of anything else.

I don't even feel like listing all the reasons I'm a nerd-- sufficed to say, I'm posting on The Escapist forums at 3 a.m.
Because like this man I also post on The Escapist forums during the late hours of the night.

I proclaim my nerd status due to the following!

- Have remained awake beyond forty eight hours solely to finish Lunar in three days time.
- Have spent an entire day watching anime (52 episodes of Inuyasha at one time, 30 of Naruto upon another and Bleach roughly similar. Additionally watched an entire season of Friends and a few more episodes in a day.)
- I am an avid online roleplayer now upon a Bleach themed website.
- Have downloaded numerous soundtracks from anime and video games.
- I collect strategy guides, currently in possession of over fifty.
- In my bedroom exists a huge leather chair, a leather computer chair, high level PC, 52" HDTD and make shift tables. Yes a bed itself has never been as significant, thus I do not have one.
- Still play pokemon.
- Act out portions of anime, video games or primarily my own creations.
- Am in possession of more anime related material than porn, which in actuality I find horrendously boring.
- I have online mates and otherwise prefer isolation.
- I have been a gamer since the age of two.

Probably others which have slipped my mind however this shall suffice for now.

I spend my time looking at the militaries of various countries around the world.
I know more about the British military than I really should if I did anything else rather than research, watch war related programmes and play war games!

So, am I a military nerd?

People call me a nerd, but in an affectionate way. Which I've always thought of as odd...

I guess it's cos I alway fix their broken electronic equipment.

Or because I always talk about the newest technology, scientific breakthroughs, theories about maths and time and space...

Or because of times like the other night, where I was explaining the latest Doctor Who episode to someone who'd never seen it before. I explained to him about the Time Lords, the Daleks, the Doctor, the Master, events fixed in time, the Doctor's role in the entire Pompeii incident, and basically the whole backstory to the Doctor Who Universe, and didn't realise I'd been talking for the best part of an hour.

Yeah, so it's probably that last one...

I might think geek is more appropriate for some stuff, but that's just me.

I have built up a small Japanese vocabulary from watching anime.
My little brother and I spend a lot of time throwing anime references at each other.
I can often understand when a show or game is making a reference to Japanese mythology (if you couldn't tell, I'm big on Japan)
I am currently obsessing over Touhou.
I spend a lot of time posting on the Escapist or editing TV Tropes.
I once compared my math teacher to Tsuruya because he laughs a lot over little things (just like her)
I wish I had a magic weapon or powers of some kind.

I do well in school.
I play a lot of games.
I (did) know a lot about the Star Wars universe.
I make many references to Monty Python.
I write sci fi stories (kinda).
I have almost memorized all the lines in the Homestar Runner website.
I have Loser by Beck as my theme song.
I visit the Escapist daily (which not a bad thing at all).
Oh, and I can play a wicked air guitar solo.

If these don't fill in the category of nerd/loser then the world will end... somehow.
