Ok, so I see people come to the game and call everyone Nerds all the time. Well, here where I live, Nerd is NOT a bad thing. Here are some local papers articles on Nerds.

I read the Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy twice. I'm reading it a third time right now. Other than that, I answered no to the rest of the questions.

0-3 - You are not a nerd, you never have been, and, chances are, you never will be.
Damn... I'm not gonna be a nerd. I had a score of 0

I got a 4. If only I hadn't played magic the gathering some 6 years ago I could have been in the 0-3 range. I think there should be a couple other questions though.
1. Do you wear super hero shirts, anime shirts, or trench coats to school?
2. Do you generally have about 4 days growth of facial hair, not quite a beard or mustache, but definately more than the old 5:00 shadow.
3. If you are a male, do you weigh less than 140 lbs or more than 280 lbs?
4. Do you refer to star trek fans as the "OG's" of your current movie/game obsession?
5. Do you own, or have you owned anytime since the year 2000 a Metallica T-shirt?

That's sad, since number seven was:
7. Do you have a closer relationship with a video game system than you have with your best friend?
Oh, and Elentari, this (http://thepost.baker.ohiou.edu/archives/012899/access04.html) is the nerd quiz. Just scroll down a bit.

Weellll, I got a nice big 0, however, glam, got a 10. I kind of figured that the results would be thus, but it was rather surprising to find out that my sister is a nerd... :(

I'll toast you like a piece of bread.
OK, wow. I went to a funeral Friday of a guy who would have gotten a 20 on this vote, and it made me realize a few more things need to be on the quiz.
Do you have clothes most people would call a costume, but that you call garb?
Have you ever been to a "war" (and if you think by war I mean guns and foreign countries, then answer no to this because that's not what it means here)
Do the three letters SCA mean something to you?
Can you tell a 14th century garment from a 15th century one?
If you answered yes to any of the above questions, would you wear such clothing to a social event such as a funeral, wedding, or school?
Let me just say that was by far the most unique funeral I have ever been to in my life. Wow is the only word to describe it.

Ohhh, Hugh, if only you knew the half of it. My wife went into the church first to give his widow a hug, which is the reason we were there in the first place. Unfortunately, my kid was sick so my wife was going to take her to the doctor. I waited in the car and when my wife came out, she gave me that evil smile and said, "You go on in there and have fun now". Now my wife isn't one to crack jokes about other people. Ever. She's the Christians Christian and all that good nice sweet stuff. For her to make a comment like that, and especially at a FUNERAL for crying out loud! I knew it was going to be bad, but I started to walk bravely forward anyways. She jumped into the car and took off, just as I realized what she was talking about. So there I am, normal guy in shirt and tie amidst 20 or so of the citizens of King Arthur's court. I expected everyone to start trying to pull excalibur out of a stone at any moment. The speeches given by the clergy were totally appropriate, but then his friends all took a turn talking about the poor guy. I was absolutely amazed that this one person could be such a nut magnet. I had no idea nuts were even metallic to be attracted like that. Now I know how Mr. Salty feels, the only guy with intelligence, surrounded by a can of peanuts. So, without disrespecting the dead any more than I already have, let me just say his choice of friends speaks volumes about the class of individual he was. I met him a couple times and knew his library was missing it's librarian, but dang, I think the books were all missing too. All that was left was a couple suits of armor, and he decided to become best friends with them.

every1 is a nred. as soon as you accept that life is alot easer. i am nerd. when ppl call u names all u have to do is say "yeah so?"
