Just read through all of these posts...YOU GUYS COMPLETE ME and I love you all!!
I cosplayed for Comic-Con, I love Harry Potter, I play video games, love Marvel, recently have fallen in love with Steampunk, etc, etc....0 -
Maybe more of an obsessive fangirl and freak than a geek. Definitely a nerd, although my proclivities lean toward civil engineering and roads these days. Proud to let me freak flag fly though, no such thing as a guilty pleasure. Mine are: LotR, Supernatural, The Vampire Diaries, Whedonverse(s), Doctor Who/Torchwood, music, sci-fi and fantasy books and most vampire things that are *not* Twilight.
civil engineering is always a good thing
Indeed! But not always glamorous.

I don't know which of those names apply to me but I know I am in there somewhere. I love the Firefly, Zombies, real Vampires (not sparkly ones), Post Apocalyptic fiction, Dr Who (newer seasons), Misfits, Fringe, I think the earlier Star Wars are better, and more. I am not much of a gamer but my husband fits that bill. He played D&D big time, had his own BBS in the day and now plays online games with friends. He even bought Harry Potter in Latin just because.
My oldest daughter wants a Tardis (who doesn't). She thinks David Tennet was the best Dr Who. Being from the US most of her friends have no idea when she talks about Dr Who. Thats OK. She has read the first 5 Harry Potter and she is 8 years old.0 -
Everyone is a nerd or geek now...:yawn:
Dayum straight.... we're taking over!
TV - True Blood, Walking Dead, Dexter, and GAME OF THRONES!
Movies - Too many to list...if it's based off of a comic book it's added. You can also toss in Gladiator, Serenity, Hanna, Pitch Black, 13th Warrior (how many of you know that one eh?) and many more...
Books - Most anything Stephen King, The Dark Elf saga by RA Salvatore, and oddly enough..I'm hooked on the Otherworld Novels by Yasmine Galenorn
Comics : Yeah...if I get ahold of it...I'll read it. Batman and Wolverine are the top two though.
Games : Everquest, D&D, NWN, StarCraft, Diablo...ect ect.
(I just realized I'm ranting like I'm throwing out Street Cred. Gonna shut up now.)0 -
We live in the age of the geek and nerd. Even marketers and trend forecasters are hitting the comic cons in a bid to telegraph what's going to be cool.
That's all good, just keep it on the level and let the nerdvana envelope you.

Eh, I beg to differ :P. We set up an Engineering rugby team (I am wearing our strip in the picture) and we have thrashed everyone so far. We beat Law 46-0. Take that lawyers!0 -

Played Diablo2 and Heroes of might and magic 3&4 at uni, WoW for 6+ years (still playing every day - even right now), Diablo 3(still playing but quite bored), Starcraft 2(extremely bored), Guild Wars 2(still playing).
I even met my hubby on WoW!!!! Must admit I was a total no-lifer once but I'm a bit better now (still no rl friends but will get there)
Finished the Dragonlance the whole series 3 times (I've actually read some of them at least 5-6 times) I absolutely love the characters totally in love with Raistlin and I lose connection with the real world when I'm reading my book :indifferent: I have to have one in my handbag - wherever I go.0 -

You had me at Avatar: The Last Airbender (show of course, not that horrid movie) I love all that! Video games, I have my own R2D2 Xbox, a Wii, PS2. I adore The Legend of Zelda. Maybe a bit too much. Assassin's Creed, Okami..so many!!!
Are you talking about Avatar the movie or the Airbender movie? Both sucked in my opinion, but the Airbender show was amazing. The movie though was just god awful.
The Last Airbender movie, never bothered to watch Avatar with the blue people. From what a professor said, it was Dancing With Wolves with better graphics. The Last Airbender took me 3 separate times to complete it, it was just so terrible0 -
if there are any Transformers or Gi joe collectors add me!!!!0

you sound awesome feel free to add me0

From where I come from all this is pretty cool

I love my LOTR, Harry Potter, Narnia, Transformers and what not..!...people who don't are just sad muggles ;P0 -
LOVE Harry Potter, that is my childhood.
I'm a BIG Supernatural and Doctor Who fan, I'm always making references to them. All roads lead to my nerdy obsessions.
I have manyyy more, but these three are the big ones 0 -

Pretty much exactly how I would describe it. And the Airbender movie was a huge let down. Waited forever to see it and afterwards I was just hoping they wouldn't bother to make book 2.0 -

People at my work have no idea what I have on cubicle wall and desk. I have a cartoon picture of Spike, I have a blue police box , a. Bobble head K9, pics of Simon Pegg and many other geeky stuff. I have only one other person at work who understands me. Everyone else a would rather watch reality TV which I just don't understand. I feel I am the normal one and they are the weird ones. 0

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!
That'd be sweet. And I am in denial too. Im still waiting on my Hogwarts letter.0 -
I'm a Star Trek fanatic, I love the whole idea of living in my own little world of futuristic bliss. I love anything sci-fi/fantasy and I tend to fall in love with characters in books and shows. I get a little intense about the things I like (the definition of a nerd). Dr. Who is my current obsession. I need more geek friends on MFP so feel free to add me!0
