Yeah, I'm a nerd, It's the truth. I'm not going to lie and say that I'm not, I accept my inner nerd. I always have been a nerd, and I always will be, It's just the way that I am. I'll probably have a nerd wife, and probably some nerd kids.
I am a nerd in a multitude of ways. First, I like to read fictional books. I enjoy reading books focused on fantasy. Lord of the Rings, Eragon, and The Chronicles of Narnia are examples of the types of books I like to read. I like the amount of thought that has gone into books like these as opposed to non-fiction books. These writers thought up entire worlds, created unique beings, and in some cases, even created dozens of new languages. I can't even imagine what it must have been like. C.S Lewis (Chronicles of Narnia) and J.R.R Tolkien (Lord of the Rings) were in the same book club back in the day. You may b able to see this, since both movies have a multitude of similarities, I'm sure they bounced hundreds of ideas off of each other. But yeah, anyways, I like to read fantasy novels, so that's the first thing that makes me a nerd.
Secondly, I love to play video games. I've been paying video games since I was but the age of 5 or 6. They were the one thing that I could always say that I was the best at. I always found video games appealing, I always found them to be a good way to disassociate myself from reality. I also found that they were a good way to relieve stress. But yeah, I have played every form of video game, on nearly every console. There are no games that I don't enjoy playing, I've even tried Little Big Planet 2...Now, in the era of the internet, I can even play games with friends. The only problem with the online portion of video games is that you get these 'things' that I like to call "squeakers". A squeaker is a person (Boy or Girl) between the ages of 10 and 15. A squeaker has not yet hit puberty, so his voice is especially high pitched. A squeaker is usually spoiled, so he has a sense of being more important than others, and he expresses this openly. But yes, now that you have been warned about those things, I will get back to the main point. Video games, the one thing I've always been able to say I'm good at, yeah, the end...
Lastly, my sense of humor is ridiculously geeky and immature. Up until about a year ago If someone even mentioned the word 'Poop' I would burst into laughter, but don't worry, I've got it under control. Being so immersed in video game culture, it has made my sense of humor appropriate to that group of people. So, a lot of 'normal' people may not get something that I am laughing at. And, Ummm, yeah, I dont know where else to go with this.
What else... I read / watch Anime sometimes...
I make montages sometimes and post them on Youtube of my Video Game endeavors...Just to feed me Cyber-Ego some more...
Umm...
I doodle cartoons that make no sense 24/7
I've read 800 page books in one sitting...
I've watched both the Lord of the Rings Trilogy / Star Wars trilogy(s) in one sitting...
Errm....I think that's it...If I had thick rimmed glasses with some tape in the middle, pulled my pants up to my chest, wore suspenders, and had a pocket protector, I would be the perfect Geek / Nerd...
Oh and, yes, of course, I also used to play World of Warcraft...extensively...but I mean, most guys my age play / or at least at some point have TRIED playing it, don't deny it...but I've been clean for 4 months now...
The end...And go watch my Montage :D...that I made with Windows Movie Maker because didn't have a good program at the time...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1omMo0XpAm8
Or don't...your choice... :(
This was a long blog, probably because I made it on a Saturday morning, and I just remember that I didn't make one last night...
On the next episode of Stuff and Things... I'll make that one that Clayton wanted me to make but I didn't want to because it was depressing and I was hoping I had it saved somewhere so I could just copy and paste it on here but I didn't so I just wrote / am still writing this one...
The End...
