Bored, online, attempting to learn Japanese in my spare time, own FF7 in German, own FF8 in French, own a toy of the original Megazord, still watching Power Rangers... sometimes, can level grind and item farm in RPGs for hours, sometimes even achieving an all nighter, regularly yet inconspicuously incorporate internet memes into everyday conversation, and allegedly I have Asperger's syndrome which probably makes me nerdy by default in some way or another... I know people like to throw it at me in arguments even though they never know what it means when they do :P

Oh yeah, I sometimes handwrite sideways emoticons because I'm so used to using them.

Eating kiwi flavoured yoghurt, known as 'Activia' produced by 'Danone' looked at the cover, 125g, contains milk, almond, (wtf) hazelnut (wtf) walnut (wtf) and wheat (WTF). Suitable for vegetarians.

Regularly incoroporate Engrish into everyday conversation much to the chagrin of those around me, address most people as "sir", I lie on the sofa in my bedroom while using my laptop, have posted twice in this thread...

Yeah, I'm gonna stop. Now.

I'm a computer game developer, womanizing and listen to game music on my laptop as I work. I write professionally, own antique swords and like pot noodles. I also still somehow manage to stay think and under 11 stone without excercising apart from at work in my day job.

I don't think it's possible to be a genuine nerd, without being fragile, an having a conflict avoiding personality. I also think you have to have the nerd looks. If you don't fit the bill visually, you're falling short, of nerd status. Nobody wants to see a nerd without glasses, it's just not right. So since I don't have nerd looks, I'm not physically fragile, an I don't have a conflict avoiding personality, I can't be a nerd by my book.

this is true. if you think of the classic 'nerd' or 'geek' image, most people would show like a skinny, bespectacled guy with a tucked in shirt, floodpants, and a rock tumbler who gets nosebleeds a lot...in short, URKEL.

I can play video games from 12 in the morning to 3 in the morning, the only thing I really like on tv is anime, the only thing I read outside of school is manga, I have 8 disks to final fantasy 9. (I bought it twice), I'm always bored, I'm almost always online

I learned the FFVI battle theme on guitar by ear. Also, I made the sprite bases of FFI DoS overworld and battle characters, and base sprites for FFIV/FFV. You know what, just click the link in my signature that says "Ren's Sprite Gallery."

I'm a major in computer science, discrete maths, calculus, and I have programmed extensively in at least ten different programming languages. I use Linux and like to berate Windows at every chance I get. :p

I've just watched a 50 minute long review of Final Fantasy VIII on YouTube. It was pretty funny, though.

Uh, I got a very qualified on my AB Calculus Advanced Placement test?

Um, I like the internet, I recently found out that I like anime a lot, uh... Posting in this thread? I guess my mIRC usage means something, too.

Oh, I used to use linux, but I got bored of the whole development thing, but I suppose I do get to keep SOME nerd points from that, seeing as I was using an advanced distro.

I'm so nerdy I know the difference between a nerd and a geek. Oh, and I'm a bit of a History nerd. That's quite nerdy (as indeed the name implies!).

The nerdiest things about me:

1. I have been a gamer since before I could talk and walk. I started on the NES and have been gaming since then. I own several systems and a library of games, most of which I have yet to touch. I collect them more than I play them, although I do a good amount of playing.

2. I have a vast knowledge of Dungeons and Dragons 3.0 Rules and I have yet to take part in a single scenario in which I could put them to use. I have created several characters and several campaigns because I find them enjoyable and challenging to create. I read the source books for fun and could spend hours looking at the Monster Manual.

3. I play World of Warcraft and have several characters. If I am to take part of a raid, I tell people in real life that I cannot do anything because I am otherwise engaged on that day and time.

I do not consider myself a nerd.

That defines you as a geek. Nerds are something else.

No, that's a nerd, in my opinion. I think of geeks as nerds with social problems. They are the "pizza faces." The nerds who have lost touch with reality.

Unless I have them backwards, which I don't think I do.

Heh, I do that too! Except FFXI > WoW.

Also, I moderate a Final Fantasy Forum, how's that for nerdy!

But I'm also super cool and don't consider myself a nerd/geek/whatever. :cool:

:thumb: Me too! Oh and I also have fallen asleep during a movie in Final Fantasy X-2, that's all I did the whole day and I played it until like three in the morning. When I woke up I found myself killed from a molboro.

Um, I visit a final fantasy message board and I check the smash bros. brawl website every day when I get into work in the morning to see the lates update.

That's about it.

I'm not a "pizza face." :p I agree that it is technically a geek definition but I didn't think anyone would bother pointing it out. I've always gone by the "Computer geek, role playing nerd" philosophy. :p

Despite the title, I've never roleplayed, or wanted to. :p
