"The NVIDIA RIVA TNT has TWO pixel pipelines. NVIDIA wins." I was among a bunch of medicine students. It wasn't completely out of context, you see, I had been asked whether something had changed in my life, i.e. "What's up, man, what's new..."

We (me and my friends) once spent our entire chemistry class trying to remember all of the original pokemon names. We did really well, only missed out around 10 or something, so that shows where most of our brainpower is being diverted to.

Also, in addition to when OptimusHagrid was playing pokemon on the bus, he had nicknamed one pokemon "Bill Cosby" and when he started evolving I shouted out: "Bill Cosby is evolving!"

Boy did that sound odd.

It's hard to think of an example, but one time i used the prefix meta- in a casual conversation with a non-geek. He got confused but tried to hide it.

Quite often me and one of my friends will talk during class about random video games, movies, and the like. We don't really talk quietly so eventually most of the class room will go quiet and listen in. It's pretty awkward when we notice the silence and the fact that were the only ones speaking.

It wasn't exactly what I said in public that was geeky, but I have this habit of Force-waving automatic doors open, Jedi-style. The geeky aspect comes in when I have to explain to the uninformed just what on Earth I was doing. =P

I said "frack" once during class before the new Battlestar came out and I had to explain myself to everyone except for my geeky history teacher.
This is full of WIN, good sir. =]

We where having a internet safety assembly at my school and the teachers where showing video's showing video's of how easy it was to track people's identities and i said "If it is so easy to track someone then why don't you reverse track people to see if they are who you think they are".

I looked like a complete stalker and the teacher replied that the "Normal" teenager would not do that.

Hmmmm... This one is hard, since I pride myself in my willingness to be geeky in public.

I think leading a 45 minute philosophical discussion about pokemon in my government class was an interesting example.

That or shouting "Boom Headshot" or "Double Kill" and occasionally making WoW references can all be pretty pathetic.
Humiliation

A friend of mine was eating in a pizza place with several other kids and talking about how he'd been playing WoW and this phrase left his mouth at full volume: "And then I was just RAPING this priest!"

"Whiskey Tango Foxtrot"
I use it in place of WTF all the time.

And I also do the force waving door thing. Ever since TFU came out...

The geekiest thing I ever said in public? Well, not so much SAID as SANG. I was on my way back home from an anime club meeting in Chicago, had my headphones on and failed to notice that I was singing along with my soundtrack CD, in Japanese, while I was on a bus full of Jewish Youth Group members...

Oh yeah I have done that one countless times. It's just that the J-Rock and J-pop is just so beast I can't stop.

Frickin' AK-FG but I have After Dark memorized.

On a hot summer day I was playing SOCOM with my bedroom window open and my mic on. We were in a clan match and I kept screaming at the top of my lungs: "THE TERRORISTS ARE CAMPING IN THE F****** HOSTAGE BUILDING, YOU IDIOTS!" I noticed a group of Jehovah's Witnesses leaving my yard quickly so I leaned out the window and yelled after them, "Peace of Christ be with you!"

The day before yesterday, we were forced to write a story (in diary form) of how a love sotry starts. Basically my text had words like "4chan", "Anonimous", "Monthy Python", "facepalm", etc. Everybody, even the teachers, looked at me like I was on crack or something. And this is what you get if you bring western geek culture in the midst of non-nerdy people.

When watching a movie especially a fantasy film; I and my colleagues will attempt to figure out what class D&D character the people are based on what they do.
(PS Aragorn is probably a Fighter not a Ranger.)
I do this as well. But it's worse for me: I try to work out what class my friends would be. I do the same thing with alignments as well. Actually, I tend to apply D&D stuff to a lot of aspects of real life.

It worries people.

Off topic, but why do you think Aragorn is a Fighter? He was the character the Ranger class was based on. He doesn't often wear armour, can be stealthy when he needs to, is good with animals, and is a healer. Ok, he is also very good in a fight, but Rangers are still pretty damn good in a fight, if not quite as good as Fighters.

Anything I've said at anime conventions/meets involving 4chan.

I can't think of specifics right now though.

My friend is a big GTA IV player and when we were talking as a group of friends, a gta related subject comes up and one of us says, 'What did that happen to you?' and my friend says, 'No IRL dumbass'-referring to GTA as IRL!!
