Nerd Quotient
Feb. 13th, 2008 12:25 amSo not only am I a fanfic writing, episode quoting, my hed iz pastede on yay nerd of the first water, but I did at least 8 things on this list of twenty subcultures nerdier than Monty Python.
I have:
-been a huge Star Trek fan (every episode, every series: quiz me).
-helped run a Renn Faire
-went to and participated in Rocky Horror (every weekend, Highland Theatre at midnight and I always brought extra toilet paper).
-Obviously a Whedon fan (well, a Spike fan but I s'pose we can give Joss a bit of credit).
-have done media-specific gaming (i.e. Star Wars and Star Trek)
-OMFG, Magic. Also known as "cardboard crack" for the way it will shrink your dick and your wallet...I had a green/white/blue deck. Yes, and I don't care that it sucked. Plague rats are creepy. Plus, I always OD'd on mana anyways and died before I could do much.
-Oh LARP! How I miss it...I did Dagorhir (think SCA, but less cool), Vampire: The Masquerade and Werewolf: The Apocalypse. I played Camarilla and Sabbat, every damn clan except Gangrel and Nosferatu. Saturday nights, me in my vamp clothes and Sunday mornings swinging a foam weapon. Good times, man.
-Fanfic. Must I elaborate? Really? Well, this one time...at flute camp...yeah, you know where I'm going... :P
So, eight out 20. Pretty respectable nerd cred. What's your nerd quotient? OH and don't miss the Doctor Who vid on page 2, where John Barrowman calls The Weakest Link show host "Mistress" and offers her a threeway... :)
