are you.......??

[Henya]

reason i started this thread was because i recently deleted every video game on my computer, declined going to a halo 2 lan party, and stopped playing the campaign because it was depressing - i've just come to realize there are more things to life than sitting at a computer screen living in a virtual reality

and my girlfriend and i had our one month anniversary so - yeh ive come to realize spending time with her is definitely more rewarding than games

[Triggar]

Awwww, one month anniversary

/me doesn't even know how long I've been with John, has to count, but is too lazy

Trig, I will have you know that D&D is a geeky thing to do, not nerdy.

Posting on a game fan site of a game you don't play anymore nor a fan of.

OWNED dude you got fucking owned i saw that dude!


im a nerd/geek/dork, i mean, i just quoted RvB for christs sake, i know about computers, i can build one, i know about all the major games and usualy play many of em, never had a GF, though, im pretty sure ive had the chance several times. but im pretty good at hiding it, im pretty sure i scare at least one kid in my A+ class, by watching that video of the Marine shooting that iraqi in the head during class( one that was playing dead, and im all behind that Marine BTW)

I don't know enough about computers to be classified as a nerd

BS.

Back on the topic of D&D, let me put it into perspective. Being a nerd means you need to be unoriginal, and probably obsessed with some random unknown japanese SNES game that is apparently the greatest game in the world. Along with this comes being anti-social.

D&D is very much a social activity. As some people get together to watch a football game, my friends and I get together and play D&D. It has only really adopted that nerd thing since all those kids back in the 70s who hated everything played D&D and killed their families.

thats a bit outrageous. Nerds arent always sociopaths, they often are in groups. There are Star Ward nerds, Star Terk nerds, D&D nerds, EQ nerds, anime nerds, theres just so many diferent kinds. you cant be so specific when defining it.
