Though I'm much more casual gamer now, in the past I'd spec out and build my own PC from scratch and mainly play MMORPGs, I played FFXI for many, many years.
Now that I've lost a bunch of weight and can find and fit into 1-2XL shirts, about 90% of the shirts I own are of the nerdy and geeky variety.
90% of my music on my workout playlist that I listen to when I am at the gym lifting or going for walks and jogs are of the geeky/gaming variety. I have Final Fantasy, Doctor Who, Sherlock, Torchwood, Halo, Battlestar Galatica, Firefly and Star Wars music. Those are just the ones I can remember off the top of my head.
My place has 2 types of pictures on the walls. Family and friends, or comic book and geek art..0 -

I was a Dungeons and Dragons addict... I miss those days.
Join the club. Started when I was six. My dad let me play an eagle and I'd fly around the battles and do like 1d2 of damage (I also rolled the dice for the monsters when my dad was the GM). I was twelve with a tenth level druid and there would be adults who didn't believe I'd actually played enough D&D to get to that on my own...
Now I'm finishing school as an engineer.0 -

What is the nerdiest/dweebiest/geekiest thing about you?

I'm a major fangirl, over many things.
Sailor Moon, The Slayers, DBZ, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, LotR's, The Hobbit, Legend of Zelda, Star Trek, Studio Ghibli, Harry Potter, Supernatural(due to pvr difficulties I'm a season behind!! ), anything paranormal, Karen Marie Moning's Fever universe, many many YA series.... The Mortal Instruments, Kate Daniels, etc. There's also an unhealthy amount of Hello Kitty to be spotted around my room.
Back in the day I was major into online wiki text adventure rpg's. Those were the days.0 -

Studio Ghibli is the best..I have a movie collection ranging from Totoro, Howl's Castle, Spirited Away..etc
Paranormal is my thing too..I used to watch 'Medium'0 -
Lots of fanboys and fangirls letting their banners fly proudly in this thread. I can dig it.
I watch tons of anime, fantasy and sci-fi shows. I read as many books as I watch shows and movies. I'm a gamer in the truest sense.. video, pen and paper rpg's, ccg's, board games ..put it in front of me and I'll give it a go. I go to all sorts of different conventions, but prefer anime ones. I've never cosplayed, but I'd be down to try it.0 -

I never liked the girl in it, but watched it on occasion. I'm guilty of watching Ghost Adventures, The Dead Files, and When Ghosts Attack. lol0 -

I've been to an anime convention...more than once...IN COSTUME.
I'd like to know what characters you portrayed.0 -
I have a 36" unicycle, a mountain unicycle, and a recumbent. I'm a Linux nerd that likes Doctor Who, Big Bang Theory, and Trekkie stuff among other things. But I don't juggle or dress like a clown so I have that going for me.0

I love science, history, mythology, RPGs, books, comics and anime. I've been gaming since I was old enough to hold a controller and spend much of my time either reading, writing, gaming, or working on art projects. My favorite genres include fantasy, science fiction, and horror. I aspire to one day have my own dungeon, library, and collection of ancient and medieval weapons.
You are awesome! That sounds like a great aspiration.0 -

I want to do that, but I'm nervous about being judged. Still, every year I think about who I'd want to go as. This year I was talking myself out of Kyoko from Puella Magi Madoka Magica.0 -
What is the nerdiest/dweebiest/geekiest thing about you?
A photograph exists of me at age 9, wearing cardboard Spock ears and flashing the "live long and prosper" sign. In fact, until I was about 14 or 15, I would regularly pinch the tops of my ears in hopes of growing a point.
May post more some other time, but yeah, I think that's the pinnacle for me.0 -
Probably the fact that I've never owned a desktop that I didn't assemble myself.
I'm a big gamer and sci-fi dork, but that's approaching mainstream these days. Assembling computers is still pretty hardcore.0 -
I love gaming (and still haven't let life get in the way of a good weekend-long session (I once took a Mon/Tue/Wed off work because I just couldn't stop playing Oblivion :ohwell: )
I've played Final Fantasy VII on my old PS1 at least once a year since it came out (and had to buy second hand replacement PS1 when my ol' faithful died)
I read science magazines and cosmology books and my first big ambition was to be a physicist (but I wasn't strong enough with the maths side to pursue it)
I love fantasy books - Tolkien, Song of Ice and Fire and Harry Potter and a couple of weeks back spent a whole day learning about the histories of Middle Earth on the Wiki because I'm ashamed to admit I haven't managed the Silmarilian.
I'm in a relationship with a live action role-player.
There's more! But I'll leave it at that for now!0 -
I'll be celebrating Pi Day with the family.0

Grew up on zombie movies... illustrated and published my own book about zombies. Love fantasy and sci-fi. Like comics. Volunteered at local comic con and have attended many others. Have probably 1000 books in my house. Go to the local bookstore and love to listen to authors at speaking engagements. Read The Wheel of Time books back to back without interruption so much so that I dreamt the characters in my sleep. Have dreamt in cartoon (I was my own character but was one of the X-Men). Once dreamt I was trapped in the circuits of a game boy (the lines of the chips towered above me like the walls of a maze and I had to try to find my way out).0

I've been reading and rereading WoT since 2003. I can't bring myself to read the final 3 books. It is, hands down, my favorite series of all time. I've been trying to get myself to read the last few that the other guy wrote, but I'm scared. I don't want the story to end :frown:
Same here. I've not been able to bring myself to read the last ones. Part of it is not wanting it to come to an end. The other part is I want to reread the series from the very beginning to catch myself up. Also, readily admit that I wish I could jump into the book, punch Faile in the face, then jump back out.0 -

REALLY?
She's not my favorite character by any means, but I don't think Perrin would be as amazing as he is without her. If you were jumping into the books to punch somebody though, I'd pay you to haul off on Berelain!0
