How many people here have ever worked the term "Saving Throw" into general conversation? Bonus points to anyone who has ever asked a complete stranger what their ThAC0 is.

I am a software engineer, I laugh at coding and binary jokes, I read more about video games than anything else, I like stargate/star wars/star trek/nude pics of stars, I wear shirts that say "8-bit player", my wife buys my clothes so I can have some resemblance of modern culture.

All in all I'm awesome.

Well, everytime I find a stray coin in the street, I whistle the "You've found something!" sound from Zelda.

*shrugs*

I make the "bliiiing sound from SMB

 

The nerdiest thing about me though is the fact that I probably know 99% of all the tunes to all NES games released here in Sweden, and that I - to the despair of my collegues - use to hum a lot of them them while I work.



Beware, I live!
I am Sinistar!
Beware, coward!

 At least 62 million Wii sold by the end of 09 or my mario avatar will get sad

Just because you like video games doesnt mean your a geek or a nerd. Im near complete opossite of a nerd. Video games are cool, so if you talk about it while whistiling a theme or watever doesnt mean your a geek.

A geek is a person who acts like a dork, and cant get laid.
