    I'm watching Contact right now, but when I'm sick all I want to watch is Dune and sometimes Dark Angel...judge me about the Dune and I'll cut you, judge me for the Dark Angel and I'll nod in agreement.

    I loved Dark Angel!

    I love reading and I am an all out Fantasy nerd LOTR, Dragonlance, Eragon, Harry Potter etc. I also love Vampire/Werewolf books.

    I am a Trekkie Original or New Generation preferred. I Love Star Wars, and can't wait to see Episode One in 3D this weekend. I also love Indiana Jones and Comic Book Movies, especially the X men, and Batman.

    And this is just the tip of the Geek/Nerd Iceberg.

    Excel!
    Favorite function? VLOOKUP.
    vloolups are so cool! Although, it seems as if no one can ever figure out how to do them. I've had to teach and reteach people the function on multiple occasions at various jobs.
    I thought it was only me! :laugh:

    I've been watching Doctor Who since the first episode with Christopher and I love it! In high school I found out our new chemistry teacher is obsessed with DW, so I got to watch all the previous Doctors, too. I love reading DW fanfic and usually spend a few hours at a time.

    I watched the Transformers cartoons (Armada, Energon, etc) as a kid and was so excited when I found out about the cartoon movie while walking around a video store! My brother and I rented that movie really often.

    I play horse sim games online and have for years now. (Horseland, Howrse, Horsephenomena)

    I started playing Runescape in middle school and still have my account. I go through spurts of paying for a membership and playing for a bit nonstop.

    My preferred videogames are things like sims, harvest moon, etc.

    I used to do roleplaying online (text-based) and have been wanting to get back into that. I mostly stuck with animal characters.

    I love Aqua and I wish I had their new album right this second.

    Almost 20 years old and I still use my Pooh and Tigger comforter as well as my Spongebob comforter.

    My boyfriend is a nerd and I think that's why we go so well together. He plays D&D every week if possible, owns nearly every Zelda game and plays them religiously, loves Boondock Saints as much as I do, is obsessed with Star Wars, LOTR, etc.

    All my nerd hobbies are guilt free. I perform science experiments in the kitchen sink with the kids, I develop stratergies for dealing with the zombies post apocalypse, and I stalk Jonathan Coulton, Russell T Davies, and the Horrible Histories team on Twitter..

    I also have a secret underground test facility which is currently being run by a megalomaniac robotic life form. I was working on developing shower curtains for the US military but we have found some interesting side effects which we are currently testing. We may be recruiting test subjects in the near future so if anyone is interested please see me for a disclaimer form and to subject yourself to the first round of personality tests.

    Hey now, who are you calling a megalomaniac?

    Remember, the Aperture Science Bring Your Daughter to Work Day is the perfect time to have her tested.

    That's not geeky or nerdy. Guilty pleasure, sure, but not geeky or nerdy.
