    Hello there, fellow geeks!

    My name is Chris, and my superpowers are stovetop cooking and intuitively avoiding spoilers for anything I am (or am ever interested in) watching/reading/playing.

    I have another superpower of swallowing fluffy foods at competitive levels... I was the undefeated Twinkie-eating champion at my school, and I once managed ten Peeps in one gulp at the end of a "chubby bunny" contest... but I've had to stop that as it's part of the reason I'm on this site. :p

    Hi!
    My superpower? I'm gonna go with being awesome at everything forever. More specifically, I'm good at making people happy. It's kinda my thing. I also absorb knowledge very easily, but it gets filed away in a dark dank corner of my brain if I don't use said knowledge. Oh, and monopoly.

    Hey everyone! My name is Stephanie, and I am 26 and I recently discovered I am a total geek... I LOVE IT! I am not sure what my superpower is but lately I have been trying new and geeky things and it is really fun and feels like a new power for me.

    Since we have like 500 people in here, time to bump this a bit.

    Hi, my name is KolMohDee. Some of you may remember me from such films as "Get some Confidence Stupid" and from my role in "The Planet of the Apes, the Musical"

    I don't have a superpower, I'm sadly not even a Genius. Billionaire. Playboy. Philanthropist.

    What I have though is the ability to throw really random geek, nerd, and music trivia in at the drop of a hat and fix your mothers computer.

    Greets all, James here. My superpower is painting - I'm an artist at heart and love creating beautiful things with brush, pencil, steel or Wacom pad!

    I'm Rachel, and my superpower is being able to walk into a room and fix computers without laying a hand on them.

    It's like they're afraid of me or something.

    Hi there! I'm Sean and my superpower is the ability to over-analyze everything. If it's simple, I'm in trouble!

    I'm Mem, and my superpower is stealing words from public signage. This is what comes from having a core group of friends who sit around and delegate superpowers. I got out of it better than a couple of my other friends, though - one of them was given the power to turn things a flat/2D bright green colour, and another - when she sees something and likes it, it instantly gets covered in sequins. (She hates sequins.)

    I'm Gigi and my superpower is trolling my guildmates in super secret ways.... like changing their guild notes to something ridiculous... The other night one our guild mates who used to have 'Jean-Luc Picard' as his guild note was being referred to by another person 'We are doing this for Jean-Luc Picard....who wears purple panties.... did we need to know that?' not only did it get a huge laugh from the guild but there was a lively discussion about who the culprit could be. *shifty eyes* I don't know anything about it....

    My other super power is acting like a school girl when I talk about Wil Wheaton.... oh yeah.

    I'm Michelle, and my superpower is turning technical gobbledygook into simple, beautiful prose. I am the Punctuator! (Seriously, I had a character in City of Heroes with that name.)

    I play SWTOR with the hubby, read lots of fantasy and supernatural romance, and cross stitch (fantasy stuff, nothing boring).

    Hell all, Erietech here.
    My superpowers are remembering the IP address of a router I was logged into 3 months ago, but not remembering my wife's cell phone number.

    Big fan of the Song of Ice and Fire series (aka Game of Thrones), my Kindle, Battlefield 3 on the XBox.

    Oy! Julie here.. Superpowers range from raising 3 lil girls; teaching IT stuff to newbies and helping out other companies with IT stuff. I have an insatiable appetite for knowing - how, why, who, when, what and trying it at least once *virtual works for me*. I see the humor in almost everything :P

    HELLO MY NEW HOME!

    Another Julie here :)

    I love nerdy stuff. Some of my favourites:

    - All things Douglas Adams
    - Harry Potter/LOTR
    - DOCTOR WHO! (big fan. David Tennant is my fave because he is sexy)
    - World of Warcraft
    - Heroes of Might & Magic (2 and 3 are the ones I play)
    - Diablo 3 ^^
    - Webcomics, xkcd especially
    - A few fantasy favourites: George RR Martin, Guy Gavriel Kay, Raymond Feist, Lian Hearn (I even met GRRM, he signed my book, and we took a picture yay!)
    - I'm big into reading in general, everything and anything. My favourite genre is perhaps sci-fi, but really, if I think it's good I'll devour it no matter what the story's setting is
    - Zombies (anyone else doing the whole Zombies, Run! running application?)

    Plus more. <<

    Edit: superpower = shapeshifter of course

    Hi! I'm so glad that there is a board like this. I'm 4'11" and trying to lose about 40 pounds. My special power for me would be hemming! I'm so short that I have to hem all the pants I buy. I am a sewing-machine! (haha, get it?)
