    Here another one! I love watching series, mostly scyfy, but also other ones, and with my boyfriend I watch anime. I also love gaming and reading. (I am 23 and still play pokemongames on my 3DS :smiley: ) Oh and I love minions, they are amazing <3

    Total geek here. 48 years old and still cosplaying. I am also the CO of the Lucasfilm-acknowledged costuming group The Jedi Assembly. I also love Dr Who, some animes (Attack on Titan, FullMetal Alchemist, etc.), Sherlock, and so much more. Star Wars basically is my life, though.

    I'm assuming your username is your actual name, here...but it really shocked me when I saw it because I thought it was me for a second! We've the same initials and I'm not smart enough to remember what my ACTUAL screen name is! :D

    My number one goal for getting in shape is so I can look good in a Captain America costume... Does that count?

    Fellow geek here! I'm totally new here. Feel free to friend.

    I grew up on Star Trek TNG. And, so, I think my highest geek cred is the fact that I watch at least one episode every night (it puts me to sleep). What are your favorite TNG episodes besides the obvious (Best of Both Worlds, Inner Light, etc.)? I also love BSG (hence the username), Doctor Who (although, I'm really having trouble with Capaldi... anyone else??).

    I'm a nontraditional student getting a second degree in math. I used to teach high-school physics. My hobby these days is studying the history of science and and the history of intellectual thought. icck: I feel like we could totally geek out on ancient history together.

    Aw love, you're going to be so disappointed in me. One of the few things I just couldn't get into was Star Wars and Star Trek. Most of my friends were never into it either so I never felt the need to get into it. I will say that lately I have had a little itch of curiosity that needs scratching. Maybe I'll give it a try this weekend or something since I have a couple days off.
    I loooooove history. Oddly though... the creepy side of history. I have two marvelous books on all of the Kings and Queens of the ages who were completely insane. All the stuff they never teach you in history class, now THAT stuff is intriguing! :D

    Hey I better still be cosplaying by the time I'm hitting 90. If not? Check my vitals.

    Sweet... So we don't have to count the computer nerd part, my recently re-discovery of my Civ V addiction, my Lego's Darth Vader Desk Lamp, or the fact that I drink my water out of an Iron Man Collector's Edition Slurpee cup from 7-11...

    Yay! You're the first person I've come across watching Gintama! So funny! It's my fave, atm. Still playing catchup with it, but I'm chipping away!

    I'm definitely a geek I would say. I enjoy anime, manga, webcomics, and western comics thoroughly. My favorite animes are Chrono Crusade, Nichijou, and PSWG. I'm trying to lose weight for lolita coords from actual brand names and cosplay of course.

    Also I apologize if I posted twice. My phone was acting screwy earlier.
