    Default Nerds nerds nerds.

    Oh come on. I know I'm not the only geek here.

    I want to know-
    What's the nerdiest thing you've ever done?
    What's the nerdiest thing you do on a regular basis?
    What form does your geekery take?

    Note, you don't have to be a traditional geek to tell me about it - I class myself as a huuuuge makeup and body mod nerd. I have my traditional geek outlets as well, but a lady never gives away ALL her secrets.

    Come on guys, don't make me feel left out here
    Get the fuck off my harbl, yo'.

    I am a proud nerd and always have been. I'm always doing nerdy things, from playing video games, to reading (I am a regular at the library) to being called a walking encyclopedia. I couldn't being to mention the nerdiest things I've done because my life is full of nerd things.

    What's the nerdiest thing you've ever done? In high school I decided to teach myself Latin, Japanese and how to draw anime just for fun... wish I had of stuck with learning at least one of the languages.

    What's the nerdiest thing you do on a regular basis? Love my anime and sci-fi shows!! Made a reg customer of mine download and burn the entire Lexx series for me about a year ago

    What form does your geekery take? I think I'm a little bit of a geek in a lot of categories rather than a huge geek in any one Used to be a huge anime/manga geek but not so much right now

    Great thread idea btw, sxcbbw!!

    Yep, this.

    I pretty much always have a game on the go. Currently it's WoW and FFXIII. I also love reading, and other things that I get all nerdy and obsessive about like dog training and horseback riding.

    Nerdiest thing I've EVER done: probably LARPing, going to Renfair, or playing Dungeons and Dragons. Hey, hitting other people with PVC swords can be fun and who DOESN'T like funions and mountain dew?

    Nerdiest thing I do: I'm forever on a search for the perfect MMORPG. I still remember some phrases in Japanese and Gaelic. I could veg out and watch crappy horror movies all day.

    What form does my geekery take: Total gamer geek with a pinch of movie geek and music geek thrown in for good measure.

    I play world of warcraft. And I don't mean I play it every now and then, I mean Im a hardcore, snooty about gear etc WoW player. And I have no problem admitting it.

    I read fantasy books. I've read lord of the rings I don't know how many times, Im in the middle of the wheel of time series and the king arthur novels.

    Im also a member of the SCA (society for creative anachronism) in which we regularly spend large periods of time living in the middle ages. I have a closet full of handmade clothes dedicated to this. http://www.sca.org/
    Sorry I missed church. I was too busy practicing witchcraft and becoming a lesbian.

    I forgot about my fantasy book geekness!! JayATee, have you read the Magician series by Raymond E Feist? Best fantasy fiction I've ever read

    I'd also like to add I'm a vampire nerd and will read and watch just about anything vampire related (except Twilight, sorry to any fans here).

    My mother's reading a Raymond E Feist series as we speak, she loved the Magician series! Omg, has anyone read Robin Hobb's books? I am a little obsessed.

    I love vampires too, but I'd have to agree with the whole Twilight thing. Strippers sparkle, not vampires.


    I <3 Bela Lugosi.

    Oh, and also zombies. I <3 Bruce Campbell/George Romero/the list goes on.

    Oh, and I have played TEXT based RPGs. I don't think it gets much nerdier.

    Wait.

    I had a crush on Freddy Kruger. It does get nerdier.

    I have read fanfiction. I wanted to work for a cosplay alt porn site. I was almost a Droog for halloween in a town where no one knows what a Droog is.

    Oh, and I celebrate talk like a pirate day.

    Lol. One of my first ever computer games was the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy text-based RPG. Good stuff.

    Same here. I'm a raid leader and a guild leader and have been for over 3 years now. I have 4 80s, and I'm progressing in 10 man ICC.

    I spend most of my free time playing video games. Other than WoW I play CivIV, Left4Dead, Fallout 3, Oblivion...

    Guys always want to know where the hot nerdy girls are. They are at work in the strip club, DUH!!

    hehehe.

    Seriously though I wasn't aware that this many other dancers were into the same kinda stuff as I am. If I talk about gaming or obscure movies or music at work, I just get blank stares and funny looks.

    Oh good lord. Uh ... maybe winning the Hacker Jeopardy contest at Defcon one year single-handedly by answering all the questions in the "geek culture" section that all the damn boys in my group kept fucking up on.

    Ooh! Ooh! Getting fired from a day job because I lost track of time on a quest for AF Armor in FFXI - 37 hours straight. I had NO idea what was going on. I got my armor, and promptly passed the fuck out with my head on the desk. I got a call the next morning saying I was a no-call, no-show the previous day and was therefore fired. Oops. It was a shitty job anyway...

    ...I'm an IT Director for my day job. Right now, as the only IT person in-house, I wear a lot of hats. Network security, systems, server rooms, basic help desk stuff. I'm currently training for my CEH certification (Certified Ethical Hacker) which I hope to have by June. I don't think it gets a lot geekier than this and all that goes along with it.

    I'm a technology nerd/geek. Computers, video game systems, etc. are all in my realm. I'm a hacker - and yes, I'm offended by script kiddies and the way the modern media portrays hackers. Though, I suppose until I get my CEH, you could call me a cracker too. And I'm white, so that works two ways! Yay!

    Currently totally geeking out over FFXIII. Slow to start and a lil' confusing but it's FF god damn it. There is no way it can't be awesome. Well, FFIX was. IX was the biggest mess of a FF game I've ever seen. Dear GOD. And FFVII was a movie. And don't get me started about Crisis Core or Dirge of Cerberus. Ugh...

    By the way - Pirates forever. Fuck those ninja bastards. They WISH they were as cool as us Pirates. Pfft.

    I get that in every job I've ever worked at

    But I'm a total minmaxer in WoW. I play a rogue and I've had rogues in 25 man gear asking me how I get my dps so high. I'm at about 8100 on Toravon in 10s.

    Plus I'm a roleplayer. I spend a lot of time RPing with my boyfriend in games. Every game we play, hah. I also write erotic WoW fiction XD

    Ditto to the superiority of pirates over ninjas.

    Although Tenchu was a good game and ninja stuff is kinda fun, pirates are WAY cooler.

    What's the nerdiest thing you've ever done? Harry Potter midnight release parties at Barnes and Noble. Twice. Oh and there was definitely a Neopets phase in there somewhere.

    What's the nerdiest thing you do on a regular basis? I totally watch Ghost Hunters. I <3 TAPS!
