    Not really anime or cosplay, but I'm a Firefly freak, horror author, fire spinner and contact juggler. If that's nerdy enough for you feel free to add me!

    I'm sort of an in the closet geek/nerd/otaku. If my family ever found out about it, they would disown me, hence the secret.

    You really shouldn't be surprised that geeks nerds and otaku like logging everything and get graphs of their progress.

    I LOL'ed my pants when I read that.

    Classically trained game nerd and enjoy-er of anime/animation of all sorts. My nerd list can go on, but we will just leave it at that and call it a day. In actuality it's part of the reason why I am here. That sedentary lifestyle these things seem to "create." I'm glad to see so many people coming out of the wood work.

    And Ahiru, I think in many countries it's not a derogatory term. I have to agree with you though, I really wouldn't want to be called that due to its connection. Then again I don't like to be linked to any term, but it happens.

    Not that really into anime as I used to be. I'm mostly a computer nerd, oh and video games. Especially RPGs.

    I used to be really into anime. Now I like it, but I'm not into it hardcore. I always wanted to cosplay as Faye from cowboy bebop but I never feel skinny enough to pull it off....

    I also don't really do video games.

    Anyway. I am nerdy. It's in my tagline. I do front-end web development (getting my master's degree), pie charts are sexy, I like to read (a lot). I also like sudoku, card games, scrabble, coloring books (yes with crayons), anything to do with dinosaurs, and cartoons. Definitely more a computer programming/science nerd I think. Maybe not what you're looking for.

    No, you are in the right place. This is my first time responding to somebody. Still trying to get used to this site.

    I got into Anime because of my boyfriend, but I've been nerdy on my own long before that!
    I'm a punky-ska girl with colourful hair and an undying love for biological sciences/anthropology.
    Anything that explains how the world works, we work, etc.
    I've also roadtripped around north america, 40 states & 7 provinces.

    I've been to PAXs, I have been pretty much only playing Minecraft lately, but I love FPS (mostly computer, but I don't mind playing consol either).

    I've never read a manga, but I've watched plenty of Anime.
    If anyone wants to be friends, I'm looking to lose another 60-ish lbs (already lost 40)
    My friends list is pretty dead, but I'm active and looking for nerdy, active friends :)

    Well, I'm facing a picture of my friends and I cosplaying as The Doctor, Amy Pond, and a Dalek. I'm pretty sure that's a good indication.

    Yeah I am not a nerd or anything and the fact that my screen name is an obscure character from Death Note should not be taken that way.

    What's eveyone's favorite fandons? Mine is Rurouni Kenshin. I scour fanfiction.net constantly for good fiction on my favorite characters

    Girl, you have no idea how many otakus are here. I'm trying to loose weight to look better in my cosplay. Don't think you've ever seen a 150-pound anime character... besides Godzilla... :P
