Thats tough. In the group of people I hang out with, I'm pretty much the only nerd available. This means that a lot of nerdiness tends to slip out, and they usually give me the same amount of crap for it regardless.
Hmmmm. I play 40k at a local store and there really arent any creepy people there. Some are still in High School and others are in college/ just out of college. One creepy guy came for a bit but I guess we weren't competitive enough so he stopped coming (thank god). We just play random games for fun. This "demographic" is everywhere and there are some really creepy video gamers out there it's definatley not just Tabletop gamers.LazerLuger said:Video gamers are no-where near as nerdy as tabletop gamers. Every time I go into a traditional game store half of the people there are middle-aged, neck-bearded, hambeastly cat piss men. And it's not just one store. all of them are made up of that demographic. Why is it this way. why does tabletop gaming attract the creepiest people and video games are hip? Hurm, must remember to investigate further.
You are being ironic right? It is the nerdiest thing in the world and is mostly wish fulfillment writing.Snugglebunny said:Wait....whats wrong with fanfiction? o.oSewblon said:I wrote South Park and Invader Zim fan fiction and I read Manga. The fan fiction is not on the internet so don't look for it.

Most fan fiction is stuff like writing a story about your favorite character who died in actual continuity resurrecting or turning out to have been alive the entire time and having characters get romantically entangled with each other for no real reason. Also, it has these characters called Mary Sues, or Marty Stews, who are idealized versions of the author and just come out of nowhere, solve all the problems and do other things that the author fantasizes about doing. If you spend enough time on any fan fiction site you will see all of this stuff eventually.Snugglebunny said:And the problem with that is....?
