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.
No need to thank me, citizen, 'tis but another day in the life of SOCIALLY-AWKWARDMAN!

Right now I'm deciding what I want to get for my birthday; an N7 hoodie or volume 1-9 of the webcomic Girl Genius (a collection I've already read online and would cost $195). That's what comes to mind right now.

And the time Simon Pegg and Nick Frost described on Top Gear how they first became friends:
Pegg: We bonded in a pub over sound effects from Star Wars.
Frost: *makes series of whistles and bleeps*
Me at home: Mouse droid, on the Death Star, episode IV.

Probably me and my friend learning how to mod oblivion so we could just change the intro screen of our friends game of oblivion where the scrolling map is to rick astley and replace the music of him doing "never gonna give you up".

We also changed all of the music in game

towns/cities=pretty woman and YMCA
environment=great escape and eye of the tiger
battles=benny hill
dungeons and caves= dance of the sugar plum fairy/in the hall of the mountain king

Got into a very heated arugment with a dear friend over way Warhammer 40k was better the star wars.We almost came to blows(which would have not been pretty, seeing how we're both borderline psychotics when angry)
son i like warhammer 40k as much as the next guy but DONT YOU EVER SAY THAT IT IS BETTER THAN STAR WARS, think about it starwars came BEFORE 40k and without the influence starwars had 40k wouldn't have existed.

Note to the mods: i am not trying to start a flame war i am mereley pointing something out...don't ban me

i didnt do this but it happend to my brother. he was in the ROTC and he was in charlie company. the CO asked for suggestions for their company name (i.e. the charlie chainsaws, or chokers, or w/e). my brother and i are red vs blue fans (or at least we used to be), so he suggested the charlie chupacabras, to which the CO nerdily replied "chupacabras... i like it... it's got a ring to it..."

Oh that's easy, signing up for an account on this site when all it's content sans ZP is abysmal.

Now that I see there is captcha here too, there really is no reason at all to post here.

I would argue with you but theres nothing i can say about star wars that would be anywhere near as bad as what lucas did to it.

Nerdiest thing ever done? Where to start?
-Talked for hours with friends concerning the differences between different iterations of Batman.
-I watch the Annual Dance off with the star wars stars every year, and am continually delighted.
-I subscribe to 4 of Kevin Smith's podcasts.
-I'm writing a fantasy series pitting wizards against a technologically advanced empire of aliens. It also has werewolves with steampunk cities.
-I used to compete in Yu-Gi-Oh tournaments every weekend.
-I missed three days of class after getting Modern Warfare 2.
-I go to midnight releases whenever possible.
-I loved the Mortal kombat movie and couldn't stop making Highlander jokes while watching it.
-One of my favorite passtimes is to watch Highlander: the series while playing pokemon.
-I'm going to make my own web series and submit it to thatguywiththeglasses.com

Huh, I've got a whole folder for this occasion!
Star Wars pin-ups, Doctor Who christmas cards, Zelda Valentine's day cards, oh and don't forget the christmas card depicting Superman punching Batman wearing a Santa costume - that's an important one.

Also I plan Call of Cthulhu tabletop campaigns just for fun (never actually found people to play one out with me).
I can quote entire episodes of Futurama and large chunks of Big Bang Theory. Seriously, I put it on mute and talk along.
I can tell you practically everything about the life and times of Scrooge McDuck and recognize every Barks comic by just one picture to one page.
I've got a book here called "The collected works of William Shakespeare". 200 pages of size 8 font in two columns. It's got everything.
I own several Star Wars EU books and most of the games.
A little Cthulhu statue guards my collection of Lovecraftian horror.
I make Monty Python's Flying Circus marathons.
Do you know the van from the film Fanboys? I'd kill to get my hands on it.
And finally... I'm now about to start working on my Aperture Science Enrichement Center radio wave receiver and replayer. Otherwise known as the Still Alive Salsa version playing radios. I love Portal.

... 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. ...
Irresistible.
What do you mean?
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.
In a perfect world, I think I'd be the one with every girl just cause of lines like those. XD

Watching My Little Pony while sharpening knives. (I keep my life in Balance)
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.
I... Don't... What?! o_O

Living up to the username i see :p
Well, if you'd call me a "Bosh'tet", which i assume would be a placeholder for something not very nice, i'd be well within my right to startle you a little. Don't worry, i don't carry a shotgun around :D

I watched a CS finale live, airing from Dreamhack. I felt dirty. At least I wasn't actually there.
Ahhr.. I once watched some Starcraft 2 finals live over internet from Germany, though i have never tried any Starcraft game myself, never seen it IRL or never had any interest in it at all..

Building popped up everywhere, worms came out of the ground.. I understood very little of it, still i watched it..
Did you enjoy it, though? I'm just a little curious, is all.
You know what? Somehow i actually enjoyed it a bit, though very little of the game itself made any sense..
I mean, suddenly one of them won, even though the looser still had forces left.
Also, i could never figure out who played what team until one of them cheered cause he won.

Still, the gameplay was so fast you could not help but be amazed.
