I reluctantly voted "Yes, and ashamed of it" ... I wanted to vote "No way man!" but I didn't want to be call out on it, and be known as a liar. I guess it's about time to admit to my nerdiness... oh yeah
One of my favorite quotes is about what a nerd is, it comes from something I heard on TV, - I forget where, maybe it was from Bones. I can never remember things verbatim so forgive me if I paraphrased it: Quote:

I thought it was cool to listen to it, but on the other-hand playing it is debatable: http://www.musicbanter.com/general-m...ers-nerdy.html

I don't look like a nerd but I really am. I live on computers from the time I wake up till the time I go to sleep. I'm a huge sci fi fan and love PC gaming (have like 20-30 games). I'm doing IT as well, I think you have to be somewhat nerdy to get into that industry.

I really don't feel like I nerd, I'm into a lot of weird things, but for the most part I hate nerd fandoms. I'm not a nerd, I'm a weirdo and proud of it.
