    Hey! By nerd does it count being a straight A student? Majoring in engineering? Videogames and anime? If so, I'm your girl! :) Feel free to add me!

    Does a BS in Chemistry make me nerdy enough? If not I also like math. LOL

    Yep! You qualify as a nerd. I was a straight A student. Now I just play video games and MTG and watch an unhealthy amount of supernatural :)

    I was never a straight A student (fifth quintile ftw!), but after three years of ChemE, I decided I wanted to play with computers. Now, twenty years in to an IT career (fifteen as a developer, five in security) I have no regrets--Aside from having over forty pounds to lose!

    I was on the math team.

    Boom.

    I could list many other valid representations of my nerdyness but why bother when I've got something that good?

    Lol, feel free to add me. I'm brand new here and looking to build a support group. :)

    Does it count as nerdy when my first thought jumps to, "Hey, shouldn't that be nerdiness instead of nerdyness?"

    I always loved the line from "The Game": "Oh, that's right. You're a left-brained word fetishist."

    Um, heck yea! I'm usually the grammar/spelling police, and I am seriously ashamed of myself! Lol
    Apparently, it's better I was on the math team, and not in the spelling bee. ;)

    Oh man, the spelling bee was not my friend! I was the science fair geek that won every year. Then when I got to high school and there was no science fair, I went and founded an environmental science club. Yup. I was that kid.

    Nerd here! LotR and other epic fantasy mostly, with some other stuff (D&D, Catan, Doctor Who, Joss Whedon anything...) Any of my fellow nerds can feel free to add me!

    Now, the real question is, do you play MTG? That would be totally awesome!

    Nope, not something I ever got into. In fact, I've never played a single game. :/

    I also love the sciences. Specifically Chemistry and Microbiology (majoring in it.) :)
