Let Your Geek Flag Fly

I read comics and play my ps4 whilst riding my exercise bike

My daughter told me recently that the geekiest thing about me is that I don't know I'm a geek. (I'm really not. I don't even know what half of the posts in this thread are about)

Forgot something. My current profile pic theme is "lesser-known cartoon characters". This is Day 6 and the previous 5 are in the first row on my profile pics. Go take a look and see whether you can name them.

The current one is Eek! the cat - one of my favorites back when it was on. I will go look at the others later, when I'm not wasting time I should be using to get dressed and out the door... :drinker:

I am a rather proud geek. Love my video games (though i don't have the time for them i once did), been a GameMaster for 15 years, running Shadowrun, 7th Sea, CthulhuTech and All Flesh must Be Eaten. I write science fiction and am a total sci-fi freak. I run the local convention circuit. Love tabletop wargames (WarMachine is my game of choice presently). My board game colelction is constantly expanding and I've begun corrupting my kids with games most people have never heard of.

Odds are, if it's considered a geeky hobby and I don't already participate, odds are you could persuade me.

I've played my share of WoD and Warhammer. Love video games.I'm crazy about: anime, Westerns, Kung Fu movies, K-Drama, documentaries,foreign films, and Sci fi. If the movie/show has: Simon Pegg (esp teamed up with Nick Frost), Stephen Chow,Bruce Lee,Harrison Ford, Jet Li in it I will definitely watch it. I would say I love Doctor Who,but seriously,shouldn't everyone? I am always willing to share my Xanth series, or any of the 300-ish books I own (in hard copy) including manga. I love Star Wars. I love Legend of Zelda. I still own,and use, a VCR because I can't let it go :laugh:. I love to learn strange facts or statistics.Whenever my s.o. finds a spider in the house,he asks me to identify it, and I can. I love learning about reptiles, fish, and space. I'm really into Science. I'm obsessed with martial arts -both traditional and modern- and have trained since I was 12. Friends, family, and people who have known me for less than a month have all been known to refer to me as: geek, weird, nerd, and space cadet. My s.o. and family often make fun of the way I speak because it's "too proper" for casual conversation. I am -unintentionally-analytical about everything. I'm pretty introverted. On second though, I am probably more of a nerd than a geek, but I want to play too! haha

I'm pretty sure I'm more of a nerd than a geek, too, but I never let it stop me, lol.

Also, there is no such thing as "too proper" - the current corporate buzzword is "strong communication skills" lol... Though as someone who, in a former career, has been paid large sums of money to make it appear that my coworkers actually have said communication skills, I know how rare that actually is. :laugh:

(Even if my own fully-developed linguistic and orthographic skills are heavily laced with newsroom-honed invective these days.)

i think a lot of people are confusing geek with nerd here.

Well, the OP did ask "What is the nerdiest/dweebiest/geekiest thing about you?" It was not limited to geeks.

I spent all day dreaming about cosplays I'll do when I reach my goal weight

when I write codes and queries, I cross my fingers and pray that they work and hope that I won't have to check the log file!... oh wait... that's some dunce *kitten* ****!

I read this as Greek. Lmaooo. And with that I'm out.

I'm a geneticist. But we're probably not talking about that kind of geek here are we?

WOW player (Alliance) for 7 years now. Lover of Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Star Trek, Harry Potter AND any and all musicals! Still play HeroQuest (the boardgame) and have been writing quests for years for my extended family - yes we sometimes dress the part - no I am not ashamed.

Also a fan of Elvis and playing the Sims - and I am 34.
