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.

Ah yes
I thought of mentioning the scream, but that's done on purpose. It's almost like all the film&TV companies are completely oblivious to the sounds they use, and pick the first one on the list.
The kids laughter one is more or a bunch of kids giggling & laughing, not sure of the woo yea yea! Although I'd probably recognise it from hearing it somewhere else too :)
