A friend of mine who lives in America and I have promised to cosplay as Hetalia together at Animazment in 2 year's time. She'll be female America and I'll be male Britain.

Probably have a serious discussion about Watchmen's Ozymandias' (can't believe I wrote that correctly on the first go) D&D alignment. I'm still convinced it's Chaotic Good, if an extreme version.
I'm sorry, but there's no way he could be any thing other then exactly that! how the heck can someone claim his actions are'nt from the "good" nature, or say that they dont represent the more chaotic path?!

OT: no idea at the moment, but probably remembering too many small things from futurama... love that show...

EDIT: I'm an idiot... I have a variation of the chaos symbol as a avatar/tattoo...

I drove 32 hours to the LA convention center for my first Anime Expo. Probably to date the nerdiest and most awesome thing I have ever done. Also most expensive!
Did you consider going on an airplane? I mean, come on, 32 hours drive?? Thats insane..

Considering your average speed, if stops and sleep not included would be around 1600-2000 kilometers..
Dude, it's about the journey man.

Elaborate? Was it over which should be used in a particular situation?
No, it's more of from me learning Python as a first language and for loops are a bit wonky in it.
So that carried over into Java and I preferred while loops just because it was more layed out in an easy to manage way.
I did move over to the for loop later though.

... So Ig uess the worst one that failed was I referenced P2 Innocent Sin by saying, and i kid you not "you are my Maya Amano, and I'm your Tatsuya Suou, so lets make an Innocent Sin for some External Punishment". Amazingly the girl knew what i was talking about, and giggled before walking away. though I later asked her out like a normal person.

.... I know, its amazing I got rid of my V-Card. ...

In a better world you would have to fend off potential mates with a stick. Or don't fend them off, if that's what you prefer.

The soundtrack of my wedding was done to Final Fantasy: Celtic Moon. I kissed the bride to the tune of Final Fantasy VI's Fanfare. Hope that meets geek criteria there.

I also tell customers when they leave I say "Keelah se'lai" and no one gets it and when the ask what I said I say it's Swedish for good bye
I may have to start saying "Bosh'tet" to customers xD
And maybe *I* will stand before you. I'm about 6'6" and weigh 300 lbs. And i will shout "I AM HUMAN!", because i'm not a giant lizard.

At the time, this was back several years, with the gas mileage of my car. It was cheaper to drive then it was to fly. It was a good old fashion American Roadtrip!

This is a tough question for me however it's easily where my username comes from.
I was once in a punk rock/ska band
ages ago
that was called 'the deck of many things' our songs were mostly about D&D.

It was truly sad.

(PS this was loooong before penny-arcade made a joke about tycho being in a similar band... hell i think it was before penny-arcade existed)
Deck of Many things? Please.

Lets flash back to a few years ago when Metal Gear Solid 4 came out. I get it because I love me some metal gear. I start playing, and I'm enjoying the hell out of it. But what's this? Snake's main handgun is a springfield Operator. I get it in my head to look into the pistol and I buy one. Then I look at the rest of my arsenal

I already have a goodly amount of firearms but for some reason I get it in my head to start buying more. So I start systematically obtaining guns used in MGS4. I even go so far as to look going through the legal hoops and paperwork to start purchasing automatic weapons.

Then Modern Warfare 2 came out and I found myself running through the same thought process.

So now here I am with an active, nagging habit of buying the real life counterparts to guns used in video games. I recently purchased an authentic LeMat revolver, one of the rarer weapons in Red Dead.

Yeah. Good times.

Wow. That sounds like border line mental illness than just straight up 'geekiness' are you in fact... a [a href=http://www.aetv.com/hoarders/video/?paidlink=1&vid=AETV_SEM_Search&keywords=hoarder%2Bshow&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=hoarders&utm_term=hoarder%20show]Hoarder?[/a] I love to see an episode of hoarders where the subject just has metric fucktons of weapons.

I'm half-teasing here don't get too upset.

I quote Doctor Who on a regular basis. Which, actually, can get pretty bad sometimes. *laughs*
Bah, don't feel bad about that, that's nothing. I quote EVERYTHING.

Seriosuly, I'll quote from the one episode of Star Trek I saw whilst nearly passed out drunk.
Holy smokes. *laughs hard* That's the greatest thing I've ever heard.

I'd hardly call myself a hoarder. I keep everything in my home very tidy, especially my gunroom. I'd consider myself a collector and shooting enthusiast. People collect stamps, don't they? Same thing except my stamps can kill things. Otherwise it's the same game. The old ones shouldn't be handled by just anyone, there's limited edition and hard to find ones, and they're all unique in their own special way.
