    I watch Charmed and Angel every morning while getting ready for work...

    I don't know if that counts but my friends tell me I'm a nerd...

    Right now I am watching the anime "Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo" It is fantastic, I still have my Ultima Online account from 2000 (which will always be cooler than WOW I don't care what you say), and my son is named Anakin.

    I have many nerdy pursuits. But mostly I just pursue nerds. :devil:

    I like to cross-stich while watching Princess Bride. I don't even need to see the screen. And I just repeat all the dialogue while counting those tiny little x's.

    I am a Computer Science major, and in my current position, I no longer write any code. I am taking free online classes for web coding. No reason. Just doing it!

    I like to dance around my house in my Dr. Who scarf and eating jelly babies.

    I read grammar and punctuation books for fun, too.

    I spend time on the internet researching scientific topics.

    I follow NPR's 13.7 blog.

    I'm a classical musician.

    And I love everything Star Trek/Dr. Who/Neil Gaiman/Terry Pratchett/Star Wars/Harry Potter, which makes me nerdy enough--but I also like reading Chekhov, Tolstoy, Austen, ****ens (really, MFP? You won't let me type the name of the classic author who wrote A Tale Of Two Cities?), Tolkien, and other classic writers.

    If those aren't nerdy/geeky pleasures, I don't know what is. ;)

    Oh and I went to the movies to see Beauty and the Beast 3D with my daughter and niece, and sang all the songs, out loud, until someone complained. Then I sang them louder.

    Not so much of a guilty pleasure as I don't really care what people think about it.... but I watch lots of Star Trek. Lately both classic and Next Generation.

    Then there's video games. I looove RPGs. I even still play my SNES, NES and other classic consoles from back in the day as well.

    I'm also a big book buyer. I get too many sometimes, and all are mostly technical or science related.

    Books, especially old ones..I hate the idea of a nook or kindle, nothing can compare to the feel of the paper, or the sound of a turning page, or the smell of the glue and leather used to bind it..Ahh pure rapture!

    I touch myself at night. Oh wait what?

    Oh right, yeah I listen to the Star Wars soundtrack while playing my-oh-so-awesome SWTOR!

    I circle typos in books.

    I watch virtually no television, but the only show I *do* (or *did* - it just ended) watch is Chuck, which is pretty geeky/nerdy.

    I put on my bowtie, braces, Harris Tweed jacket, and then sit at the piano with my sheet music of Buffy, The Vampire Slayer's musical episode, "Once More With Feeling" and "Dr. Horrible's Sing-A-Long Blog" and sing to my hearts content.

    I only wish that Firefly was on long enough for Joss Whedon to do a musical episode...don't care how it would have worked. It just would have...

    Anyone laughs and I will so Sonic you!

    Video games are a biggie for me. We also just bought the entire series of Farscape and it's pretty freaking great. I find myself thinking about the characters throughout the day.

    I love cowboy songs (especially from the pop-button-shirt cowboy revival of the 1950's), like this:
