My nerdiest experience is when i was meeting some new people, and someone asked a question about the AT-AT in a sort of joke, and i went into a 10 minutes speech on the specs and workings of the AT-AT and then realized everyone staring at me, shocked that i knew so much about a pretend ship, lol.

Sending out tweets to those that misspell as well as those leaving grammatical errors on message boards as much as the comments section. I still recall catching Kris Allen when he said he has the beat fans. What the People’s Choice Awards website did to The Great Gatsby must go unmentioned.

From Steph:
Well I am a cosplayer so that in its self is pretty nerdy. But cosplaying at a convention or midnight movie premiere seems to be getting more common. So putting that aside the thing that stands out in my mind is a few weeks before Halloween I found out a store 2 states away was having an amazing Manga/ comic deal. So a caravan of my friends and I drove the 3 hours to get to the store 20min before they closed. Then drove the 3 hours home. Was it worth it—yes.

From Walter:
The other day, I was talking to a friend who’s still single and going on age 40. Yeap, 40 year old virgin coming up! So I was yanking his chain about why he still loves with his Mom. I asked, is your Mom, like, your girl friend? Do you preform coitus with her? My friend looks at me with a stare that can pierce ice. Then I said… “BAZINGA!” Then we both laughed.

From Nancy M:
My nerdiest experience was always waiting in line for hours before a new Harry Potter book came out at midnight, even though I had a pre-order and could have walked in the next day and avoided the line. But I HAD to have it as soon as possible!

From Danielle B:
Do I have to pick just one? It is a tie between dressing up as Amy Pond from Dr. Who at comic con ( I even have the american apparel hoodie she wears…. ), and run screaming from statues…
OR the fact that my license plate frame on my car says “I am a leaf on the wind Wash is my copilot” (from Firefly/Serenity)…. or the fact that I say shiny (firefly) and gorram (again, firefly) on a daily basis AND saw Serenity 5 times in theaters including before it even came out…
Joss Whedon is my master.
