What is... the nerdiest/geekist thing you've ever done?

[Custard_Angel]

Started reading my chemistry textbook to my girlfriend.

What can I say, it gets the ladies.

Most girls I know find nerdy stuff cute.

That means they like to hear about "smart stuff" and not that they want to adapt it to their lives.

Reading from a chemistry textbook is a good little way to exploit this. Inviting them to a chemistry seminar to discuss the finer points of enantioselectivity in organic synthesis of drug compounds is a bad way to go about things.

Then again, because of my own nerdiness, you can expect that the girls I know aren't... entirely normal either.

Oh well. Being a medicinal chemist gave me the icebreaker I needed for my own girlfriend.

Ride that dragon.

Being asked at an old workplace for a six digit code they can program into the security system so I can disarm it after hours and they'll know it's me. I told them 127001... then explained why I'd never forget it. I got some funny looks.
I've probably done nerdier things, I just can't remember them.

Okay now I have to know what do the numbers mean?! I can't get them out of my head!

Could be wrong but I think it has to do with your Ip adress...

Could be I thought it might have been the ID for a ship like the numbers for the Enterprise and now I have shown just how big a nerd I am.

That would be me figuring out what set out of 31 it would be best to get 5 random rares from by % chance of green/white and blue/artfact cards, and the % chance of getting any of the cards I want. I spent, no joke, around 8 hours doing all that.

I don't know what worse you doing that or me knowing exactly what that was you did there... >.>

 

[Tentickles]

I have 2 Fallout related tattoos.

Currently planing the third.

 

[Pig Mazurka]

Recently sang the original Pokemon theme out loud simultaneously with a friend during my 5th period Earth Science class... over, and over, and over.

Oh yeah I forgot, during my own wedding when I was sequestered in the 'groomroom' me and the male members of the wedding party played a rousing game of [a href=http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_minisite.asp?eidm=6]Arkham Horror[/a] with players switching here and there as duties summoned them elsewhere. We did manage to stop Ithaqua from being summoned shortly before the ceremonies.

Remembered something worse then not going to a party to play wow. I didn't go to our middle school grad to play wow, despite knowledge that the girl I had the hots for was going to ask me to dance there (Her friend told me. I hadn't told anyone I liked her.) To repeat, I am a sad bastard.

 

[JemothSkarii]

Nerdiest/Geekiest things...
Basically all my shirts and hoodies are gaming related
I have a Moogle, Cactaur and Tonberry plush, along with a plush companion cube and Aperture Science Mug.
I am effectively a Final Fantasy Dictionary
I loves me my JRPG's/SRPG's, and I play D&D with a few friends (Go my Dragonborn Mage...although we don't have the book to create Half-Dragons -_-)
I've been making the outfit of my Fursona (just need Police boots and fingerless gloves, and I wish my Trenchcoat was black, but he also has a brown one)
Made an Epic Meal Time Breakfast.
Have a habit of making a gun with my hand, placing it to my head and yelling "PERSONA!"
I have a growing anime collection and a massive Holo poster on my wall.

It's an IP address. 127.0.0.1 is localhost. Also known as the loopback address.

Lets list a few:
-Once when I was in fourth grade I read the entire harry potter series in less then two weeks just so I could beat the Grade 6's who were reading it in class (Yes I Know I'm still a Young'n).
-I have corrected my teachers multiple times and on a separate occasion in year seven me and my friend corrected two years tens about who technically got to the moon first.
-Have been to the Supanova expo twice and went to eGames once.
-I used to play the Tabletop Lord of the Rings games but gave up.
-I religiously multiple web-comics such as Dr. Mcninja, Sam & Fuzzy, Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal and Boxerhockey (I have at least one item for the first three of those).
-I Started reading books written for young adults in grade 5 which i know isn't amazing but I thought I should put it on here(however most of my friends could say the same).
-I once spent a lunch time explaining the religion of Bokonism from Cat's Cradle to my friends and explaining how it makes more sense then most religions.
-I make it a goal to buy two gaming magazines every month.
-Half of the posters in my room are gaming related.
And that my fellow escapists is just to list a few.

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

Seriously Tom, you dont need to carry on about it. also, um.... im getting sick of the benny hill now, how do i change it back now??

Don't have the exact folders on me since i reformatted my comp recently and so don't play it anymore but its should be in the data folder somewhere labeled under music. Then just look for the benny hill theme (should be labled battle) and remove it or change it for something else. If you dont have the original set of music im sure you can download it from somewhere

I tried to reference a meme in school.
You can imagine how that went.

 

[kannibus]

Countdown time...

3) I was in an Electromagnetic theory class with my mates when the instructor asks "What is Resistance". Without missing a single beat I yell back "FUTILE!".

2) Wore a Star Trek Red Shirt on a casual Friday.

1) Carried out an entire conversation in l33t.

 

[TheSolemnHypnotic]

I was playing Guitar Hero in my sleep. I was also using a Dual-Shock in my sleep. I'm a trivia answer dispenser so that counts too.

 

[hughi94]

Recalling pi to 96 places. I will be happy when I achieve 314.

 

[Yosato]

Well I'm a regular Fanfiction writer so I suppose that counts
