    If any of you like Avatar: TLA or TLOK, Adventure Time, Gravity Falls, Pokemon or Homestuck, come to me you've found your people. My weight loss motivation is actually to look better in cosplay haha.

    I'm a book nerd. Love to read. Getting married to the cutest geek ever. He's teaching me about Star Wars and stuff. Somehow I've made it to 35 yrs old without ever seeing Star Wars, Star Trek, Dr. Who, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, or any super hero movies except I saw one of the Batman movies in jr high. He loves me anyway and answers all my questions. I'm proud to say I've seen the 1st Star Wars movie now and also The Avengers.

    I've always wanted a vanity licence plate that says "NT A MGGL". I refuse to believe it. I'm in hardcore denial!

    Let's put it this way. I just explained Colinar to my roommate. I got an extended very odd look from her.

    Depends what you do with it. If you programme it, then yes. If you try to eat it with ice cream on the side, then not so much.

    On a serious note, though, I want one of those. I should learn to programme things. (And, yes, I'm using the olde english spelling of programme. It's hardwired into my brain.)

    I'm also a geek, a nerd and a dork.Literature, music, art, TV, cinema, theatre, and so one and so on. Anyone can feel free to add me if they want.

    S.

    ETA I'm currently trying to decide whether to go for a walk in the cold Glasgow rain or play some Skyrim...

    Score! I found this board before heading to bed! Dungeons and Dragons, Doctor Who, puns (if you can't slip in a pun worth a groan you can't be a relative, nuts that we are), and I'm dragon obsessed. I refuse to give them up.

    i installed rasBMC and the pleXBMC add in, as i was hoping to use it as a Plex media center (my 2011 samsung telly supported plex and worked brill, but i had to send the telly back and got a 2012 which doesnt support plex yet).

    First tests were semi successful... xbmc worked and plex communicated with my plex server, however, wasnt stable enough. Further testing required.

    A friend of mine has just moved from essex to glasgow to go to uni... she seems to be liking it and has blended with the locals by wearing shorts when its raining

    yesterday evening, spent in a pub doing freeform roleplay (in glorantha- runequest)- There were many funny looks from the regulars but the barman recognised fellow nerds and came over and had a conversation with us about the star trek convention in london this weekend :-)

    Love all things nerdy with the exception of Harry Potter!

    Just ordered one for my son, he wants it for his birthday, he'll be 13!

    I am daughter of a nerdy-geek,I run a gaming shop, (I know that makes me a nerd!) and mother of 4 not so little nerd younglings!

    That's 3 generations of nerds, there's no way we'll breed that out of the gene pool!

    Hmmmm, I don't consider myself a geek/nerd but I do love Lord of the Rings (have done since I was a kid), Harry Potter, a lot of Sci-Fi things, and I larp and play table top sometimes....so if that makes me a nerd, so be it. :smile:
