I'm a geek and proud of it.

Big SF/Fantasy fan (I can even speak a few phrases of Kilingon) and, at one point, could recite the whole of Schawarzegger's dialogue from the first Terminator film from memory. I'm a Progressive Rock fan (some of the others at the Rush forum I also frequent call me the Uber-Geek). Played RPGs for many years (D&D, AD&D, Call of Cthulhu, Traveller, Rune Quest, MERP and Paranoia). I get pissed off if I buy a DVD and it doesn't have a cast commentary on it. I can, usually, recall the titles of all 36 of Shakepeare's plays from memory. A model of the Hogwarts Express stands alongside a model of Buffy the Vampire Slayer at home. I can't bear to watch the special edition of Star Wars: A New Hope because Greedo DOES NOT shoot first .


Do I qualify?

Of course it qualifies; i am so softcore compared to you!

Well, I do have some geeky activities but I wouldn't dare to disrespect geeks by calling me myself one. I know I could have potentially been quite a good geek

I play ADOM since I have a computer, easily mora than ten years. I take breaks of sometimes months from playing it but sooner or later I go back to playing it. I do like some other old RPG computer games like Dark Heart of Uukrul and Dungeon Master, but not many others. On videogames, I'm fond of old games and still have a functional NES that I connect from time to time. I miss platformers

I play MTG too, and have a bunch of cards, however, while I approached such activity quite lightly by just buying big boxes of random used cards from time to time and not really keeping informed or playing "seriously", I did spread it amongst my mates and we play it with my box from time to time when we get together.

I like science fiction films but seemingly for me the less spaceships/lasers in it the better. Films like The Falls, Demon Seed, The Incredible Shrinking Man, Event Horizon, City of Lost Children, etc. are the kind of Sci-fi I dig, and I really do!

Let's say I do have my inner geek alive and kicking but he is a bit dormant

I'm a geek, and I happily live with my nerdiness every day.

The world needs geeks; nobody will admit it but at many points of life, history and evolution we need geeks.

Long life to the geeks, keepers and diggers of knowledge, vast and diverse, esoterical and mundane, rationnal to figments, useful or recreative!
