How nerdy are you?
This week Gary Gygax, co-creator of Dungeons and Dragons, died. A whole generation of pasty dice-obsessed nerds owes him big time. Me included.
So, in his honour, how nerdy were you? Are you still sunlight-averse? What are the sad little things you do that nobody else understands?
As an example, a B3ta regular who shall remain nameless told us, "I spent an entire school summer holiday getting my BBC Model B computer to produce filthy stories from an extensive database of names, nouns, adjectives, stock phrases and deviant sexual practices. It revolutionised the porn magazine dirty letter writing industry for ever.
Revel in your own nerdiness.

I'm more of a book nerd than a computer or gamer nerd...
I like to play with henna, and every few weeks I change the little symbol on my right wrist. A few weeks ago, I had inked a little Om symbol on my wrist. The girls at work all wanted to see, so I showed it to them. "What's it mean?" they asked. So I told them I'd recently converted to Omnism. I then beckoned them closer, they all moved forward and I whispered "The turtle moves!"
Cue six confused looks.
