You might be a nerd if...

I could use it to get more sandwiches.

I'm not sure you're getting the implication here....
I just choose to understand it differently.

Happily...we were just discussing, not negotiating."Life is a journey. Time is a river. The door is ajar."
Ala beats to the march of his own drummer-- you should know that by now, Sensei.
It's not even a drummer.
It's a monkey with a triangle.
Stupid monkey.

Give him a xylophone....or a euphonium.
yeeeee I hate that thing. It shows up in horror flicks for a reason. I always wondered about parents who gave that and things like it to their kids.Probably accounts for a lot of missing children...and also a lot of serial killer development.
Ya...she went on to, "I'm Talky Tina and I'm going to kill you."Dolls can be scary.
There's a doll that keeps showing up in True Blood--nothing has happened yet, but I just saw an article about it and how "dolls are never a good thing in movies." lol. They ARE scary.
Don't have HBO in my "package" so i don't watch True Blood... not into the books much, my daughter likes them though. That aside, ya hate dolls.
And how about Jack in the Boxes for creating traumatic childhood experiences.
I.. none of those fit me.
my nerd cred, it is gone

*comforts Ala* It's OK, you aren't alone in that. Here, have some bacon-filled pancakes.

btw, you know that Beyond the Sea song? I know it from those damned cruise line commercials(and Nemo, cuz, duuuuude).

Uhhhhhhh.....Tracey were there 2 songs in the episode about the Peacock family????? The one that jumps out is Wonderful Wonderful by Johnny Mathis. I know because it sort of ruined the song for my daughter and I like Johnny Mathis...
... if you subscribe to a "word of the day" email/feed... and read it .
You own a copy of the first printing of the AD&D Deities & Demigods book with the Cthulhu and Melnibonéan mythoi.I still have mine!
Actually, you're a total nerd if you even have the slightest clue what I'm taking about.
I've got that somewhere. I believe it's worth something now!
I still have my first and second edition D&D books(all of them) including Oriental Adventures...and I still run a second edition game.

Don't forget the Battle of Evermore by Zeppelin. The line, "the ring-wraiths ride in black" gets me every time.
You might be nerd if...every time you hear the word "inconceivable" you have the urge to say "I do not think that word means what you think it means", in a questionable Spanish accent.
You might be a nerd if you keep bragging to everyone how you found a copy of "Briggs" at a library sale for .50, even though they just nod and smile...
...and you know 2 of the classic blunders...
or..."Mar-wige, that dweem wif-in a dweem..."
It's okay Scott...I don't think they exist...OOFFF!
...and you can totally understand why someone would throw themselves down a hill......and whenever you hear "to the death" you think to yourself "to the pain."
... You did this: http://www.therpf.com/f24/doctor-who-... (Which is awesome... but I mean, really... :P)
I missed The Princess Bride references! *sigh*
Grant, you know I love to see you work. But I have a kingdom to run, a wedding to plan, a bride to murder, and Gilda to frame for it. I'm swamped!

Wow! Great work.
"Get some rest...if you don't have your health you don't have anything..."
Wow... that's amazing.... blink angel... and the chick from Firefly? very cool. Yes, you qualify as a nerd but a very cool and talented one. I can't even make a paper-machete light bulb.
That was most definitely not my handiwork. I can barely draw recognizable stick figures, so that's wayyyyyy beyond my skill level. I just stumbled on the site, and thought it should be shared here... where it will be appreciated... ;)
... wearing dress clothes and trainers makes you think fondly of the Tenth Doctor.
More than that makes me think fondly of the Tenth Doctor

Will you marry me, Laurel :) Well, like a year after my divorce is final? :D

But I've only read the first Monster Hunter International book. Shouldn't your dream girl have read all three?
Thinking on it, "as you wish" might have been the wittier response ;)
I do not mean to pry, but "do either of you" by any chance happen to have six fingers on your right hand?
...you can easily fall asleep while your boyfriend is in the same room playing TF2 and Terraria with friends all over the world.
Denae - watching hubby play WoW with his guild puts me instantly to sleep. :>
...when you're totally ok with your husband playing CoD for 3 hours straight.
3 hours? Pfft. Talk to me when it gets up to a decent 6 hours straight.

You might be a nerd if you met your boyfriend through a WoW guild.
