  • I'm a pretty far spread nerd. Gaming (on and off the computer), Sifi shows, Fantasy shows, books, comics (I firmly believe Marvel is better then DC, but that doesn't mean I disregard it), Steampunk culture, .ect. I'm sure I'm forgetting something.

    Feel free to add me! I get along with both the normal and the nerds (of any degree).

    Woo! This is my type of group!

    I currently play DAoC, Team Fortress 2, Skyrim, League of Legends.

    I really need to lose the weight too, and would really love more people to chat with and maybe game with too :P

    I really am a nerd, in this group. I am shamefully UNCURIOUS about gaming and computers, etc. What a nerd I am. Oh, wait...

    You all sound like you are singing the song of my people....

    I'm a nerd/geek girl. And I totally get the spreadsheet thing... I have charts by week and month, with projections, BMI calculation, etc. I found I am much too optmistic, and my spreadsheet brings me back to reality every week when I log... :/

    Anyway, I'm a Star Wars nerd. I also like Dr. Who, Harry Potter, comics, oh, and reading those urban fantasy mysteries like the Dresden series, the Hollows series and Mercy Thompson series... feel free to add me!

    I have been heavily into MMOs for the past 10 years. In fact I know it is the reason I became so out of shape. I used to blame it on having children, but recently after watching some old home movies, I realize that I was in decent shape a year after my middle child was born, and the weight began to come on after I started playing video games.

    I still enjoy the games, but I've discovered that its important to level up in real life too!

    I am an engineer so that makes me a nerd by default. Yes, I graphed my weight loss in Excel because MFP was not detailed enough and MFP could not do projections...also graphed the inches lost, calculated BMI, weighed in daily, etc.

    I also experimented with a lot of foods to get the calories down while maintaining flavor and still had that "full feeling" when done eating. My current favorite is much improved version of the Subway flat-bread with egg-white and ham.

    Being an engineer isn't all bad. You can have poor social skills and dress poorly and when someone asks whats wrong with you...you just shrug and say "engineer" and get a total pass. lol Also, I totally get Big Bang Theory. <g>

    Noticed your user name. I live in the St. Louis suburbs, so not too far from you. As far as the getting to dress cruddy and use engineer as excuse, I sort of feel the same way about anthropology. I can dress eccentric if I want, lol.

    I own a pair of superman high-tops and my last converse high-tops had the horde (world of Warcraft) emblem on them.
    Out geek me ..... I dare you :)

    Geeky like minded friends are welcome

    I probably can't out geek you but I would just like to say that I have Superman socks and they have their own cape.

    I almost bought those! Went with the Batman panties with matching knee-high socks. LOL

    Batman panties and socks FTW!
    does the Batman panties come with a cape though? :tongue:

    New member and I suppose I can fall into the nerd catagory, I love starwars, marvel, play lots of xbox360, have over half a million world of warcraft gold (been playing it for 6 years) My black labs names is Vader, I would rather modify my computer then my car. So yes I am proud to be considered a nerd.

    Wouldn't mind knowing how many people relapse and go back to playing WoW. I think I quit it 3 times. The third stuck. I've played quite a few MMOs since I got bored of wow and they are all pretty much the same thing.


    Loving War Thunder atm though. Good for getting a quick 15 minutes of gaming in before you have to run off.

  • I'm a big ol' nerd! Gaming, Doctor Who, LOTR, GoT, etc. I'm a complete bookworm too. I actually did have a witty little nerdy blurb, but my phone crashed so this is all you get. :-P

    I'm a nerd when it comes to CoD. Especially Black Ops and MW2 (old, I know) on Xbox 360.

    I'm always up for some kind of gamer battles!

    If you want my tag, message me/add me as a friend!

    Pretty into any nerdy topic you'd like to discuss. Those with which I'm not familiar, I'd sure like to be.
  • Score! I'm not the only nerdy person here. I was starting to get worried that I might be all alone ._.

    I'm into all sorts of games, puzzles and strategy (and card!) being my favorites. I play tons of shooters on 360, because that's all my friends ever want to play -.-''' I enjoy mindless violence on occasion as much as the next gamer, but I do prefer awesome storylines when it all comes down to it. I play a ton of stuff on Steam, when my laptop decides to play nice. Though, admittedly, more often than not, it doesn't. I like the occasional anime, but I find it hard to find ones that I like. Though Soul Eater and Death Note are definitely my two favorites. I'm always open to new animes to try. I like a few tv shows here and there, like Supernatural and Breaking Bad.

    When it all boils down, though, I'm more of a gamer. So if anyone would like to be my friend, maybe we can talk gaming or even play something sometime! On 360, though. The most recent PlayStation I have is an original PS2... Stone age, I know.

    (I'm also an old-fashioned nerd. I read these amazing things called "books" that kids these days seem to have no idea what to do with, and I spend a good chunk of my free time learning languages because four is never enough.)

    Who would've thought there were so many nerds on MFP???? :bigsmile:

    And, yes, I include my self in that list.

    Don't do any of the online RPG stuff, it's a time issue, but still fit the bill.

    Managed to get my wife to watch Big Bang Theory with me. She likes it, but commented that sometimes she sees me in the program, only not as bright :grumble:

    Big Red Dwarf fan, and a lot of the fantast/Sci-FI TV and books. Love Sid Meier's stuff for the PC, especially the CIv series, although somewhat disappointed by the last edition.

    Just to complete the profile, do still play some D&D along with some MTG.

    Honestly, I do get out to exercise, I promise.

    Friends always welcome.
  • I'm one of those nerds who is so OTT that I make other nerds uncomfortable.
    The issue is that I'm a nerd and a fan girl fused together into one eccentric lump :bigsmile:
    Case and point: I have a Batman wrist tattoo. When I have exams o am under stress, I look to my tattoo for my inner Wayne.
    It's devastatingly dorky.
