Actually Throbbing Ego, that might be fun if I can find my books sitting around somewhere. PBP or PBEM? ( >:) ).

That said, I've pretty much been doomed to nerd-dom since birth. Really I've probably spent a lot more than most people trying to act like they have spent a ton of money on these forums since I've got a collection of science-fiction and fantasy stuff going back to like when I was like 12 or even younger. RPGs, Books, computer games (a lot that are fairly old). I mean even after clearing a lot of stuff out through yard sales I'm still sitting on a giant pile of stuff that taken as a whole probably makes me "The Omega Nerd".

I am pretty fat (especially nowadays), I have glasses, I'm disabled, and I live in my parents basement.

I pretty much fit the entire negative stereotype, except for the fact that I shower every day and tend to shave before I go out in public. :p

Of course then again I formerly worked casino security (for a decade). Now I just wallow in depression and self-loathing while doing things that used to be a hobby almost nonstop.

Lesson kids: as much as it might seem like it would be cool to sit around and play WoW and computer games and read and such all day, it's not quite that wonderful when you get there.

Well I wear glasses, listen to Aqua, and play Magic the Gathering, AND posted on your thread.

What now.
Are you inferring Magic is nerdy?

Sacrilege.
Its only uncool if your bad at it. So at this point, I should be wearing a leather jacket, shades, and snapping in time with some full blown musical number.

Very sad that the author is dead. Thankfully he left a lot of notes and a part of the final book finished.

If I ever did a tattoo, it would be done based on the works of Michael Moorcock. I'm thinking of something of the Symbolof Chaos on my left shoulder on my back, with a tall majestic woman blindfolded clasping her two hands on a large sword pointing down on the middle of my back, with golden scales in front of her and the Symbol of Law on my right shoulder. Each symbol will have a small faint glow of their colour around them, and the scales being the biggest symbol, because it's Order and thus the most profound aspect.
yeah, i think he left tons and tons of notes, and i'm pretty sure it's his son taking over now, who i'm sure had ideas bounced off of him.

and that ink... sounds... incredible.
amazing, expensive, and very painful.

then again i have a five hour side-piece of a cherry blossom branch [looks like it was painted on, hence why it took so long]... as well as a tiny hip tat, and a two hour uh.. well, it's an odd place. below my left shoulder-blade and on the ribs. it's a classic revolver with 'if this is what you want, then fire at will.' under it.

:D

All I do is walking every now and then and riding my dad's bike.

Don't be jealouse of model thin people! Could be metabolism as well, since I've been proclaimed as THE fat bastard in my apartment with flat-mate and his friends, and I'm skinny. Not under-weight skinny, but not fat as well. It's an awsome balance!
no i'm not really jealous of her, considering she did a LOT of coke to get thin.

no worries, she's been clean since before i met her.

Hahahaha! Nice!! Nah, I have no tattoos on me though. Would ruin my image :( so just some things are more important. When I get the funds though I think I'll go through with that tattoo I mentioned. Would be awsome and my back would be the culmination of liturature and inspirational ideas around the world!

Really wouldn't care much about the pain. I like to look on the upbeat, the end result would be worth it.
yeah, the pain kinda makes it worth it that much more.
but people tend to overlook just how much they really hurt though.
and my happy ass has 7hrs of work on the most painful place.
ribs! though i hear the top of the foot is the worst.

on the bright side, i have awesome pain tolerance now! :D

Big deal. Everyone on this forum is a nerd/geek in some way. Seeing 'who fits the stereotype for nerd/geekism more' is kind of silly.

I write and draw in my spare time.
I play D&D, Magic the gathering, and have created my own universe based off of the White Wolf publishings of the Werewolf series.
I have gone to cons.
Obviously, I like video games. Any type if it's interesting enough.
I play WoW.
I collect old comics and certain 80's toys.
I look up mythical creatures often. I find them interesting.
I also enjoy old armor (knights armor, samurai, etc) and would like to own a full suit plus weapon some day.
I'm a woman.

All these things just make me a person, I don't call myself anything outside of that. Except a loser, jokingly.
i like the mercedes thompson series. :D
*shrug* I started to read one of her novels, but never finished it. I'm into authors like Charlaine Harris, P.N. Elrod, H.P. Lovecraft, etc. and generally have little interest in novels with a shapeshifter as the main character.
The closest I come to reading a novel or book about a shapeshifter are the White Wolf clan books and so on.

Nice! Yeah, the ribs do hurt the most. My friend has a line from Robert Frost's poem "The Road Not Taken" on his back and some of it got on to his ribs. The poem though is just...something that cannot be explained by me, but something that everyone has to read.
that's the best part about poetry & classic literature such as the great gatsby or hell, even the scarlet letter... it means something different to everyone.

like sure, the lyrics i have are my chemical romance, and usually when i tell people that they think it's stupid.

but music is poetry in many ways, and the line means something significant to me. hence why it's on my fo-eva! :D

it definitely gets better.

and the only reason i don't read charlaine harris is because i don't want to spoil true blood! /:

laurel k. hamilton, kim harrison, & karen chance are more my flavor.

though lovecraft is always a delight.
