How nerdy are you?This week Gary Gygax, co-creator of Dungeons and Dragons, died. A whole generation of pasty dice-obsessed nerds owes him big time. Me included.
So, in his honour, how nerdy were you? Are you still sunlight-averse? What are the sad little things you do that nobody else understands?
As an example, a B3ta regular who shall remain nameless told us, "I spent an entire school summer holiday getting my BBC Model B computer to produce filthy stories from an extensive database of names, nouns, adjectives, stock phrases and deviant sexual practices. It revolutionised the porn magazine dirty letter writing industry for ever.
Revel in your own nerdiness.

Oh godmy inner nerdiness is being revealed.
I collect pots and boxes and jars to keep things in. I have loads for different sized screws. Some only have one screw in if I only have one of that size, but I *can't* mix them up. Oh no.
Oh dear.

I use those kinds of boxesto store art supplies.
And small jars (like baby food jars) are great when you either mix the perfect paint color or have mixed too much of a color.
