Nerds Unite!

Guess I fit in here. I'm 24 and have been playing games for as long as I can remember. I actually learned to read by playing video games. I have a xbox360, PS3, Vita, 3DS, Wii, Wii U, got the Xbox One preordered. Play pretty much any type of game, with my favorite being RPGs. Some of my favorite series would be Final Fantasy, Tales of, Zelda, Mario, Resident Evil, Harvest Moon, Rune Factory, The Sims, Star Ocean, Shin Megami Tensei Persona, Dragon Quest, the list goes on and on. I love anime, I watch the Persona 4 anime, Sword Art Online, Baka and Test, Chobits, again it goes on and on. Also a big art fan. I love to draw. I mostly draw video game and anime characters, it's a big passion of mine besides gaming. I know this is part of the reason I need to lose weight. Sitting and playing games and doing drawings doesn't really burn calories. I spend hours doing one picture. I have started using my stationary bike while I play video games, helps make me forget I am exercising. Although, it doesn't always work well. Sometimes I get really engrossed in the game and don't even realize I stop peddling lol.

Im a proud nerd as well. I like comics (Invincible, Justice League, and Batman are my favorites), and comic book movies. I havent played video games in a while, but when I do I tend to play sports games, like Madden and NBA 2K

Wow, epic thread started in July and still going, nice.

I'm also a nerd (geek?) - in addition to being an avid gamer, I love all things science, stargazing, scuba diving, music, movies and drawing. I work with computers/software, but even if I didn't I would still consider myself an enthusiast / tinker.

I'm a nerd of the Whovian/Browncoat/Potterhead (and more) variety, so I'd love to make friends with anyone interested in those things! Add me!

I would reply to this fully, only I am too busy finishing a costume for a convention on Sunday

Which convention?

uh...yeah...Sherlock, Firefly, Sci Fi Books (especially my loves Orson Scott Card and Asimov) and Doctor Who! I also kind of liked Torchwood too...BBC is pretty fantastic...
SPREADSHEEEEEETTTS!!!! I make them for everything! and so does my hubby..like everything...think we have spreadsheet-off's sometimes...I have things detailed about my weight-loss and also about my car's fuel efficiency...I made spreadsheets about my crochet projects and how much yarn each one is going to take...my hubby?? the garden, the pool, his car's fuel, the budget, oh it could go on...its pretty sad, I think we're definitely utilizing our home version of excel more than most;)
No science degree (Gerontology) and I just never got into gaming so I guess you could say I'm a light-weight nerd...

Yesssss! NERD LYFE 4EVA. I'm making a lightsaber out of plumbing supplies as I type this. I can't wait to be Darth Vader.

I wish I still had time for gaming, but that has been put on the back burner for now.

Also, I think mechanical keyboards are sweet and can't wait to add to mine. I dig that ol' "click-clack" sound.

Just thought I'd let MFP know about my love for them, haha.

Anybody can add me! I need friends plzzzz

Pretty nerdy here. Have lots of awesome Dr Who geek friends on here

Just saw this post and so excited that it's here!
I'm a total geek, from back before it was "in" lol :P

I love comics, and anyone who is into comics and hasn't read Skydoll...it's my favorite, go read it. Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep is up in my top series as well. My husband and I are Whovians, and have been watching ever since the relaunch with the 9th doctor, and have watched back all the way to the first. We used to play D&D, though these days we're more fond of Pathfinder. Whenever we got married we played the Mario Kart Love Song (look it up on youtube if you haven't heard it) and I have promised him that when we renew our vows we will somehow include the master sword. We love video games, other than Mario Kart he's more into the newer games like COD. Personally the only newer game I'm a big fan of is Portal and Portal 2 (though I do like Bioshock), my fandom lies with oldschool NES and N64 -- and we own both of those systems.

I originally planned to get my degree in forensic entomology, and many of my friends work in the science field whether it by my kids' godfather who is a biological anthropologist or my two close friends that are mycologists. I love all things science! I also absolutely adore anything dealing with quantum theory.

Anyhow, that's enough for now -- I should be working haha, but I was excited to see this post


EDIT:
Just noticed there are some other Sherlock fans here, great! I also forgot to bring up that I am a recovering wow-aholic :P. My husband and I actually clicked because I was managing a hookah lounge and he came in wearing a green lantern shirt and I had the song "Do you want to date my avatar" playing over the loud speakers. He was, a bit intoxicated (okay a lot intoxicated) and kept telling me that I was his Ramona Flowers (I think having pink hair helped..._

Hello everyone!

A friend of mine linked me here.

So here goes: I'm a total nerd (play console and computer games, computer mostly) as well as reader (of anything and everything) and am finally looking for friends online to turn my habits around and keep me accountable.

I'm 32, from Dallas TX and am a manager for a major PBM. I'm not shy at work because I can't afford to be but I am strangler reserved about my weight loss. So! I'm leaning on the internet and friends here to keep me on track.

I'm mostly doing this to get healthy and prep my body for kids in a year or two. I'm just flat out too unhealthy now for anything like that.

So there you have it!

Please feel free to friend me! I'm totally for more friends. I mostly follow a paleo style diet but occasionally eat other things as my budget allows.
