This is a question 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.

This is a question reply Why not just hang a 'kick me' sign around her neck and be done with it?

This is a question reply signs
cost money

names do not

I think its a cool name

You do not but that does not mean she will be kicked.

I have a normal name and I was kicked lots.

Every beats the crippled kid too

This is a question reply I've always planned
to give the kid a cool middle name, so they can chose whether to use it or not.

This is a question reply Thats not nerdy
Yopu're the coolest parents ever.

Now, have another and call it Tetsuo.

Then when they argue you'll have your own Manga film in your house:

"Akiraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"
"Tesuoooooooooooooooooooo!"

This is a question reply I also managed...
to convice Mrs PhillieJoe that a boy should be named Kanada but we already knew we were having a girl by then.

(yes I know Akira is a boy in the Manga but the name is unisex)
