YES!!! Who can resist!0 -
Oh wow. I didn't even see what I did there.0

I'm not as old as 39, I'm 30. I love Doctor Who, Star Trek, Supernatural, Buffy, and I like a lot of other Sci/Fi and horror shows, movies, and books!0

Yay more geeks/nerds!
I love all things Sci-fi. In fact on my vacation, I watched a marathon of Legend of the Seeker on Netflix. I love Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Star Trek, Red Dwarf. Dr. Who, Dexter, Game of Thrones, Walking dead, Truelood, Being Human (BBC version) and my friend in Australia has got me watching a quiz show called QI. Its effin great! I also play a MMORPG called World of Warcraft. Do I qualify?
Read the Legend of the Seeker books long before I watched them on tv. Loved both0 -
Count me in! My Nerdom status started with enjoying the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series in High School. I never got into Dr Who as a kid, because I'd always catch it at a "scary part" and would quickly flip away.
Currently I'm a 35 yr old Whovian who has knitted her husband a season 12 scarf in about 40 hours. I also love Firefly (badly want to make a Jayne hat), the IT crowd, Chuck, and LOTR.
When pressed on the issue, I love Tom Baker's hair, but David Tennant is swoon worthy. But who would I most like to be stuck in a TARDIS with? Matt Smith! I just love his quirks! And, well, bow ties are cool!0 -
It seems that this is the thread that just will not die... As Col. John "Hanibal" Smith would say, "I Love it when a plan comes together!!" lol I'm going to see what I can do about making our little Asylum into an actual MFP group. BTW, I have it on goot authority that 'Jeffster' will be going on stage in the common room in about an hour, so keep your eyes and ears open!! :glasses:0

Do me a favor...Don't call 39 old, lol. Be there myself real soon.
Sorry Nike... didn't mean to offend anyone, like I said before "It's not the age, it's the mileage".
In my case I am LONG over due for a complete rebuild!!!! lol
Hehe, yeah, 39 isn't old. I'm older than that and still young. And geeky.0 -
Greetings and Felicitations All,
I hope that you all are still looking for Geeks who wanna get healthy?!? According to the graphic posted by richardheath I'm not exactly Nerd material. I am a Geek, and proud of it!!!
For the post about actors out of their element I have one that goes back more than a few years: Richard Harris who to most people these days is the man who played Professor Albus Dumbledore in the first two Harry Potter movies was also in Camelot in 1967 as King Arthur. How is that for digging into movie history!!
I love anything Star Trek related, older Dr. Who stuff (not had much of a chance at the new stuff, watched some of Quantum Leap, love Monty Python (and other BBC programming too), recently been into a lot of the comic book movies, and Ghost Rider.
Roll playing games mostly tabletop stuff, AD&D (played 3.0, 3.5, and Pathfinder), never tried 4.0 due to lack of funds to buy a complete set of books, played all the way through Final Fantasy 7, going through an emulator now with FF 3/6 (Japanese/American), have played Diablo II, and a few other that I can't recall at the moment.
I'm 51 years "young", have already dropped 26.4 pounds, have about 35 more to reach my first goal, and have not had but 2 friends on MFP so far. Please feel free to add me. If someone would be so nice and tell me how to add people I would greatly appreciate it. What do I use? Username, Email address, what? Even some geeks need help now and then.

Hello, I'm Amanda! I like to think I'm a well-rounded geek (nerd depending on the day). I love Star Trek, but love playing Star Wars Miniatures (inner battle there), RPG's (in the flesh & PC), and just about every strategy & Euro board game that exists. I'm on the "Bring back Firefly" bandwagon and am purposely waiting to finish the last Season of Fringe because I'm sad it's ending! Throw in LOTR and a healthy dose of Game of Thrones (books & show), and that's a brief picture of me. It's always a bit tough trying to be an active nerd....I think every hobby I mentioned involves sitting. Ha. I have been getting most of my Game of Thrones reading done on the treadmill though!! Excited to meet some new friends : )0

As ever, XKCD has beaten me to a joke better than I could come up with...
I'm a geek, but I use that as short hand to say 'I don't seem to like what the majority likes'. I'm sat between my tetris lamp, my comic books and my violin, waiting for Steam to update, and, yes, also trying to lose weight. I wanted to join in!0 -

Lol I like that pic! Im sort of like that when I do garden work. I pretend I'm in Harvest Moon.... Hopefully that isn't just dorky >_<
Anyway I guess I like sci fi shows I grew up on sci fis. And I love gaming. And I have a degree in web development. Does that make me nerdy? I never really considered myself a nerd. But I do recognize that others might categorize me as such. And I also like animes, strategic board games.... and arts and crafts.... Yea... I dunno if others have similar interests.
I do like nerds though. Wonderful types0 -
