I have a friend who's equally in to all things nerd. She and I frequently attempt to Force Choke each other in public places.

 

Of course, when in conversation with people who don't take kindly to imaginary attempts on their life, I hide talk of all games aren't The Sims. Even then, The Sims gets some funny looks around these parts.

Last night, I was playing solitare on my iPod when I made a crappy move. I have a habit of talking to myself, so while undoing that I seriously said outloud "That is so not Good Eats"

 

... Than I realized I just said that, and realized I was a food network nerd. Star Wars nerd moments though, I've just got too many.

Hmmm.... In my eighth grade year, I made a powerpoint that was shown to the whole school. It was supposed to be a yearbook powerpoint, but I added a whole ton of stuff to it. The intro was totally the huge 'STAR WARS' followed by the scrolling letters. After the rest of the stuff, the ending starred a friend of mine as a Dark Lord waving his lightsaber all over the place. The powerpoint was shown to to whole school who consisted of about 800 people. I'd say that was one of my biggest moments. Another one was at my youth camp where there was a huge Star Wars Trivia night. I was a valuable team member, I knew all the answers, of course... Including how many midicloriens Anakin had... (20,000)

Oh oh, I've got one. I once dressed as Elvis and sang I Just Wanna Be Your Teddy Bear in front of a crowd of 500 people. Pelvic gyrations and all. Yeah.

 

 

The worst part? There's at least three video tapes of it floating out there somewhere.

This is really fun thread... I'll list a few more of my nerd moments...

 

-At my old elementary school with my friends Tim, Seve, and James, we had brought toy lightsabers in our backpacks, and we had a swordfight after school, me winning because I had carefully studied Kendo techniques the day before... Turns out I'm a natural at starwars style swordfighting...

 

-A few times my parents have caught me acting out some starwars scenes, one of the more memorable ones being the battle on the Star Forge between Revan and Malak...

 

-My friends have caught me humming starwars, pirates of the caribbean, and startrek nemesis theme music under my breath in various classes at my old school...

 

-Me and my friend Tim had an all out starwars fight. Lightsabers, imaginary force powers, and everything... He kept chokign me, until I unleased the thought bomb force power...

 

And this post, right now, is another one of my nerd moments. :xp:

I suppose that being an electronics engineer I may as well have the word "GEEK" tattooed across my forehead but I never really try to hide it anyways. I'm not really outwardly geeky. You can't tell just from looking at me.
Really? Weird. I remember the first time I saw you I immediately knew through the Force that you were a geek. You had this bluish glow around you that I had seen around other geeks and yours was quite strong. I guess not everybody else notices those kind of things. :xp:

 

I don't think I hold my inner geek in because I'm afraid people will think I'm a geek. It's simply a matter of my friends and family not being Star Wars/sci-fi aficionados like I am. If I start to talk about SW they listen politely for a bit and then quickly change the subject. Basically this is the place where I get my geek on. :D

That bluish glow is actually Cerenkov radiation generated by charged particles passing through the field of my radiant awesomeness at a speed greater than that of light in said medium.

 

 

Aha, I've done it. I've out geeked you all in a geek-off thread. I can now die happy.

Oh ehrm... Just remembered another one... dont' know how this was forgotten...

 

School Spirit Week: Dress up as your favorite TV or movie character.

 

I went as Princess Leia. It was actually a thrilling experience... People wanted to escort "Princess Leia" to class, and take their pictures with me.... You know, XD

 

My history teacher said I had an incredible likeness... So, hey... I guess I look like Princess Leia... :emodanc:

 

I imagine that a picture of me in that Leia dress will end up in the yearbook.. Then everyone will know... I can't hide the geek anymore... XD

LOL, I thought someone might say that... And no, I'm sorry to dissappoint you, I dressed as AHN Leia. I don't think I would have been allowed into school with the Leia bikini on... XD

 

But I have began construction on a Leia bikini for when a good Star Wars convention heads my way.

 

And sorry, it's not finished, nor do I have any pictures... :D

A prankster wanted to have some fun at school, and asked me to make a piece of flashy, loud and smelly fireworks that wouldnt cause a fire. After he entered my "lab"(room), I became known as the science/pyromaniac/terrorist geek.

 

I've gotten used to the female fans get attention thing...

 

See? Your geekiness pays off:D

Nah we aren't, the discussion is geeky enough, or was that an atempt to get the others to leave you be?:xp:

Well perhaps.. Considering I get hounded for my picture in every Star Wars message board I join up with. :D

 

But seriously, this is a fun topic... and well, let's not let the thread turn into an attempt to get pictures of the female fans... shall we? :xp:
