    The main thing is that nerds/geeks/etc don't discriminate. There are many facets to being a nerd/geek/etc. Some are into mathematics or Quantum electrodynamics. Others are into processor architectures, compilers, algorithms, etc. Then again others are into sci-fi or fantasy. And then there are the gamers (wretched hive of scum and villainy the lot of them) :tongue: In the end it's a broad inclusive group where everyone is welcome.

    Now, who's up for a group hug? :wink:

    or this
    Nerd
    A delicious candy made by Wonka. They are pretty much crystalized sugar in a color coating that people love to give out on halloween.

    This.. I am definitely this kind of nerd.

    I also have realized that I didn't really elaborate on anything about myself on my introduction. I'm a whovian, who lays claim to lots of other fandoms (Sherlock, HP, LOTR, Game of Thrones, The Avengers, Firefly...) I cosplayed for the first time last year (at my first con!) I'm a bookworm and have been teaching myself computer coding in my spare time for fun.

    So ya know, add me if you want. Just add a quick message in the request or I'll likely delete it.

    i was a nerd back when it was nerdy to be a nerd. before it was cool. so now i must be a hipster because i was a nerd before it was cool.

    also i have science sunday on here... so...

    i do think back when i was a nerd though, it just meant someone who was more interested in being smart than cool. and a lot of the people i hung with became politicians, scientists, engineers... etc...

    Nerd right here, wear the badge with pride. PC games, sci-fi(newbie), literature, films, mythology, learning new things, playing mad scientist in my kitchen(aka soapmaking, lotions, laundry det, etc). I suppose I'm kind of a Nerdy Hippie.

    Feel free to add me, I probably fall into the 'geek' realm a tad bit more, but I have my more nerdy aspects too. My interests are on my profile, so you can see if I fit what you're looking for :smile:

    Okay, I think I've sent friends requests to everyone on here! If I missed you and you want to add me, just send me a short message that you found me on the nerdy topic with your friend request! :)

    Because I didn't list them earlier, here are my main geeky lifestyle choices... For genres, I love sci-fi, fantasy, some horror (but not as much as I used to), apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic, dystopian, paranormal romance, urban fantasy, and drama. For types of media/fandoms, I love TV shows, movies, books, comic books, video games, cartoons, anime, manga, board games, card games, tabletop RPGs, LARPing, and more.

    My favorite series right now are In The Flesh, Doctor Who, Harry Potter, Marvel comics, DC comics, Supernatural, Orange is the New Black, Orphan Black, and The Fosters. But there's an insane amount more, too. Lol. XD

    Oh, and I love co-op strategy games in any form. And some of my favorite video games are Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2, Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy VI and VII, Arkham Asylum and City, Mass Effect 1 and 2, Infamous 1 and 2, Fallout 3, and SSX.

    And I'm usually behind on things (I haven't seen the new Who episode, I haven't played ME3 or Seocnd Son, etc.), and I can't stand being spoiled, so no spoilers, please! thanks! ^__^*

    I'm a fellow Nerd :P I love anime, gaming (used to play WoW), and big time into fantasy/paranormal reading.

    Supernatural is my big TV Show addiction, I mostly watch drama shows though. I'm catching up on Naruto S right now and I mostly play my Wii for gaming right now. Until I buy Sims4 that is :)

    No, it hasn't. I really hope that this doesn't turn into some kind of elitism thing.
