    Because I use pictures like this for my facebook profile.

    Also, I'm totally jealous of your exploding TARDIS blanket, dixie_amazon. I bet it's cozier on the inside.

    *Sorry, the picture isn't posting right and I have to leave for work. I'll try to fix it later.

    Got my tags sorted out...

    I love Castle. I have watched Dr. Horrible more that once or twice too.

    Sadly, (no, wait - AWESOMELY) I know Dr. Horrible by heart. I go to Dragon*Con every year and they always do a Buffy Horrible Picture Show - essentially they have a live cast act out the 'Once More With Feeling' ep of Buffy in front of a screen playing it, with audience sing-a-long and participation. Immediately after, they do the same thing with Dr. Horrible. SO MUCH FUN!!!

    Today I'm a nerd because I'm watching The Walking Dead wearing a seriously bad *kitten* Walking Dead T shirt that my lovely wife sent me from Australia. Not only I'm a nerd but I'm a damn happy one :-).

    My friend and I are making a special trip to Denny's tomorrow to check out their Hobbit menu. I say "special trip" because we apparently live in the only metropolitan area in the US that doesn't have a Denny's within 5 minutes. I've never felt like such a victim of marketing in my life, but we're super excited.

    I am at work watching You Tube vids, ran across a special The Weakest Link with Doctor Who cast members from 2007 and have already yelled, laughed, screamed at the computer screen more than 10x already >.>

    I was wandering about my mall filled with xmas decorations every where when I saw a new store Comics & Coffee, I kept walking as I was checking the store and smacked right into a Xmas display, nearly knocking it over.

    We're re-watching SG-1 after getting a friend hooked on it.... It's okay, I'm not scared to admit it. I'm a nerd.

    I thought the Warnings For Beginners section at the bottom of this page had some of the funniest things I've read in a long time.

    Today is my last day at work until November 23rd. As of Tomorrow morning, I will be on a flight to OKC to stay with my friends of 18 years. I met them all ( 2 seperate households plus a couple more flying in to visit ) and we've been a regular D&D group since then.

    Our guild is the Dream Warriors and we play D&D, MMORPG's, and a regular NWN Campaign that we use to help us all stay in touch. I will be there from Saturday the 10th all the way through Tuesday the 20th...and there will be *at least* five days in there that will consist of 12 hours of D&D.

    My God...it will be glorious. :love: :drinker:

    so ****in jealous!

    roll Crit baby
    That sounds like SO much fun. I'm a M:TG person myself cause I'm too self-conscious for D&D, but the concept of the days of nothing but having fun with friends - sounds so great!




    :happy: Crits and Fumbles were shared, many creatures died and I even got our Guild Symbol tattooed on my back! Holy hell, it was fun! We all felt like we were 16 again and our colorful language showed it but talk about recharging the Geek Tank... WHOO!

    I just looked at my list of recorded programs ...... it's all repeats of Dr. Who, Torchwood, Robot Chicken, X-Files, and Galaxy Quest .......

    I know most of them by heart ..... probably should delete, but that just feels so wrong :sad:

    I have to drive 50 miles to the nearest Denny's. Ugh I want their Hobbit menu.

    My whole DVR is filled with Stargate SG-1 and I just rewatched the original movie. But, wait a minute, that's COOL, right? Not nerdy! :)

    I don't know if it would be worth a 50-mile drive, but we had some great food. The pumpkin pancakes and red velvet bites were to die for. It was a decidedly un-MFP-friendly meal, though, lol.

    We are thinking about going before we see the movie. The theater in our town in not the nicest so we will probably be traveling to see it anyway. Thanks for the heads up though. :)

    I just read this whole thread and all I can say is....

    My people!!!!

    I guess I'm a geek today because I'm about to play Guild Wars 2 with my fiance, then watch the episode we missed of Castle, and in between talk about the choice of playing D&D this weekend or Vampire the Masquerade.....

    Hey Nathan Fillion and or Neil Patrick Harris lovers, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7kkVYSbXVc&feature=g-high-u

    My youngest just came in from letting the dog out in the yard and informed us he saw flashing lights in the sky and it must be the TARDIS. He also gave his doctor the Vulcan salute when he came into the exam room this morning. Turns out the doc is a fan, too, and solemnly returned the greeting with "Live long and prosper." :bigsmile:

    The apple didn't fall far from this tree!

    Many reasons. My hubby got me into all kinds of geeky things.

    Dr Who is a staple in our house. My boys love watching it w/ us. They run around yelling, "Exterminate!" My older 2 boys were a dalek & 11th dr for halloween. We call the dvd cabinet, Tardis b/c it looks like the tardis. A friend of mine is knitting me a Tardis bookmark.

    Joss is God! from Buffy-Firefly and beyond. browncoats unite!

    Belong to a RPG group. played in many games. My hubby & friends currently running a D&D game, w/ other games to follow(Changling/Midian/etc). *roll a D6. We're all gonna die** prefer 20's.

    Also have done Solar in the past, still have my hubby's 6 silver long-sword. talk about a tongue twister! mess up and you missed your target.

    All kinds of geek music. TMBG. there's another geek rap person that I can't remember off-hand, but my boys love singing, "Who that knocking a my chamber door? Mr Raven. All up in my grill like nevermore!"

    I think I could go on all day!
