Calling all Geeky Weridos

LOVE quirkiness! I love most nerdy things, like WoW.. videogames, crafting, DIY, and just acting like a dork most of the time... because it's fun! why not right?! And definite book worm... always reading! Anyone feel free to add me, I need some fun friends on here!

*raises hand* I have a tattoo of a light saber, am addicted to my Steam account, and train for the zombie apocalypse. Nice to meet you.

I have a crush on you. Platonic, of course. Simply for the lighsaber tat. *love*

Platonic-schmonic! Hahaha. My husband has a giant Yoda tattoo on his shoulder xD

All geeks/nerds/dorks/weirdos are awesome. My kind of people. Feel free to add me. I've been compared to Sheldon on The Big Bang Theory. So, beware? I've started the walk with Bilbo, though I will walk with Frodo as well. However, my ocd prevents me from doing so just yet. I am a stickler for following order.

True story; my parents both watch Big Bang Theory, and I watch it for the first time while visiting them. The following is real conversation we had.

Father: "You know, this show is pretty much about you and your friends."

Me: "Dad, my friends and I are not that bad. Besides, the show isn't even that scientific. I mean, the theme song has a huge inaccuracy in it - autotrophs can't drool."

Father: ::glares::

Me: "Okay; point taken."

The batlle cry of my fitness campaign ("this" here referring to my former high-risk-for-Type-II-diabetes-&-heart-disease lifestyle) is:

"To hell with *this* - I'm going to LIVE!"

I'm a geek of the 4e dice-rolling variety!

I'm also a bit of an MMORPG nerd and I'm trying to keep a website called Generation Geek afloat on my own. Not easy, I tell ya!

Edit: Oh yeah, and I'm a steampunk enthusiast!

I watched all 3 LOTR one day and then went for a night walk ...which is bad for me beacause i am a huge scaredy cat . So after watching all those movies i started thinking the noises out on the counrty road were Orcs lol ...Now i know they are not but in my werid noggin they were

ahaha, no sorry not really funny, I totally get you on this....except for me it's after I watch a zombie movie I look out my windows throughout the night thinking i'm going to see a horde of zombies approaching my house >< I completely freak myself out sometimes, and living out in the middle of nowhere, in the woods, at least 30 minutes from the nearest thing that qualifies as a town doesn't help.

1. I do have elf ears
2. I spent days as a teenager charting tengwar and runes and translating the frontpiece of my Tolkien books
3. I had just about every model of Palm Pilot there was
4. There are more computers in our house than there are people. Ditto phones and tablets.
5. I can't go anywhere without my FitBit. I accidentally left it at home one day this week, so now I have an alarm set on my iPhone just in case I forget it.
6. I own and moderate numerous discussion groups on far ranging topics
7. I write for fun, including participating in NaNoWriMo and Script Frenzy (2 more days!!!)
8. I enjoy filling out forms
9. I have shortcut searches set up for Wolfram Alpha

Well, I guess that should leave little doubt, need I go on?

Hmmmm i do not know lol i guess its up to you

My weird thing for the week i am convicnce 1. Orcs live in my woods and 2. I want Elf ears

I'm the biggest nerd I know, albeit in unconventional ways. Read LOTR and The Hobbit far too many times. I don't play WoW or watch Star Trek. I love Star Wars, Indiana Jones and many terrible movies (original Clash of the Titans, anyone?). I've read most of the Dune novels. I hardly ever listen to hard rock, but I can't stop listening to Viking / Folk metal (The Lord Weird Slough Feg = BEST BAND EVER!!!). I'm a fan of Norse / Celtic / Greek mythology and sometimes hold "Greek Night" for myself, which includes Greek cooking, wearing a toga and carrying a goatskin of wine.

Perhaps nerdiest of all...I'm STUDYING TO BECOME AN ENGLISH TEACHER!!!

Nerd friends out there?

ME! Oh, me! I freak myself out sometimes. Please be friends with me! I need friends who GET the weird stuff I post...and like it.

do i count? i've already registered for the MMO firefly game being released in december.

also, i married a man with an engineering degree and the majority of our "arguments" regularly contain the word "technically..." with an explanation.

Well, I'm obsessed with that show. I told my husband and friend that I wish I had a roommate just like Sheldon in which case, my friend said: ".... You are Sheldon." This I found extremely flattering and made me smile. The same friend's girlfriend gave me a Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock t-shirt. It's right up top of my favorite shirts to wear. Right up with my spider-man shirts and vintage looking transformer shirt. Well, and with all "my" other geeky shirts and band shirts that I steal from my husband. I love stealing his shirts. He's extremely smaller than me weight wise. He's actually underweight for someone of his heigh (6'2), but he has all these big shirts because of the roominess, I guess. I love to steal them for the same reason and the fact that they're awesome. I've thought about this the other day. I mean I've known for quite some time that I'm a sucker for tall, underweight geek/nerds with poor eyesight, but I was thinking that this must've started when I was born. I was born in early '84 and later that year. I've always favored Egon and other characters along the road that were like him. Now I'm married to just such a man. ^_^ I love my geek. I use to tell him that in lovely languages of the elves. Hm, I also wrote on my friend's christmas present "Enjoy my friend." in huttese. ^_^

and many terrible movies (original Clash of the Titans, anyone?).

That was terrible? At the time we thought it was pretty good..... LOL! Even Roger Ebert gave it 3.5 stars.
Quoting Roger:
"All of this is gloriously silly. But because the movie respects its material, it even succeeds in halfway selling us this story; movies that look like "Clash of the Titans" have a tendency to seem ridiculous, but this film has the courage of its convictions. It is also blessed with a cast that somehow finds its way past all the monsters and through all the heroic dialogue and gets us involved in the characters"

Hmmmm i do not know lol i guess its up to you

My weird thing for the week i am convicnce 1. Orcs live in my woods and 2. I want Elf ears

I must say i agree...Orcs live in my woods too and i have been looking for a good set of elf ears ( since i don't have pointed ears )
But on the other hand, Video games, cartoons, Syfy tv shows and movies. I must say the sadist thing about me that i absolutely love is that i love and still watch the Power Rangers and i am not afraid to admit that! :happy: I go to anime conventions and dress up as my favorite people. I think i am pretty weird! :bigsmile:
