Geek Confessions: So How Big a Dork Are You?

[JohnCrichton]

Once, when my watch's batter ran out.... I actually used kept my Dreamcast memory card in my pocket and used its clock to keep track of time. :sad:

[HumanoidTyphoon]

About 5' 6''

[Ikki D LEO]

About 5' 6''
I guess you are not that big a dork hehe:evil: ,,,,, just kidding...........

[True Noir]

How big of a dork do you think I am? Hehe... well, that sounded stupid.

[Youko Recca]

I'd say I'm more of a uncivilized with my extremely vulgar language, coarse comparisons, love of fighting and inflicting violence, harsh talking patterns under stress, forming of the most crude/barbaric but diverse group in school, and laziness. Not to mention my hobby of loving women too much. I guess you can tightly squeeze in a tiny portion of "dork" in there.

[Lord Dalek]

100% All American-Nerd.

[Eddie G.]

I think the geekiest thing I have ever done is desribe a nice looking girl by saying, "And I say god damn!" (refrence to Pulpfiction). But then there was when I listed everyone in my cellphone as a member of the Justice League. Than there is the fact that I have the geekiest job ever... being a writer. Then there is all the crap in my apartment like my Star Trek tansporter, and killer tomatoes action figures, my Nosferatu DvD, my conceptual art, and the fact I'm trying to make the entrance to my apartment a moving bookcase.

Oh...is that so?

[Catlover]

I'm on this message board. 100+ geek points right there.

[Nimbleness]

See, what I was gonna do is pick some make a list of credentials. Then I started to think of the so many things I have done, that my mind was on the verge of exploding due to the influx of memories. I'll just go with the cream of the crop.

1. At the end of the school year there was a trip to a swim club, and I never brought in permission, so I was the only person in the whole school that day. While everybody was out having fun at the pool, I crawled out one of the teachers windows (the only teacher dumb enough to leave his door open) onto the roof and played Pokemon Ruby all day. In the same day I schooled the kid that lives downstairs only using one pokemon.

3. The only dance I've ever gone to I came dressed as a pirate, and no it was not a costume dance. Seriously, who was gonna stop me?

4. Prepared a UHF spoof for a talent show, only to learn there was no talent show this year

5. Found boxes and the trash and worn them, on speaking in robot lingo. I think I made another 3 people learn to hate me that day.

6. Threatened countless people with "I'll get my brother", I am an only child.

7. Have admired the resolution of real life.

8. Rejected at least eight dates and stayed home playing games with my friends instead.

Looks like I got a little excited......I only planned on putting down like two.

You don't even really need to know all that to realize I'm a geek. Just by my appearance alone, Geek related clothing, hair changed to jetblack somewhere along the years from lack of sunlight, the way I squint in the sun. No glasses unfortunately.

Being as I'm still a lazy good for nothing student I don't have a job yet, but I do plan on getting involved technology or entertainment one way or another.

[JohnCrichton]

I wear a Nintendo t-shirt to parties because it gets chicks. :sad:

[Harlan_Phoenix]

1. I complain about Rave Masters inaccuricies TOO much...IT'S NOT THE SHADOW GUARD DAMNIT!!!*

2. I actually consider myself a nerd.

3. I call non-nerds normies, which is a reference in itself. (Can you figure it out?)

That's all...I think...

*The CORRECT Rave Master things are...
Shadow Stone= Dark Bring
Shadow Guard= Demon Card
Decca Force Sword= Ten Commandments Sword

I'm no elitist or anything...but really? Decca Force?! I know it means ten...*walks off rambling...*

[Speedy Boris]

Huh- here's something I didn't know: "Dork" is vulgar slang for the male reproductive organ. Atleast that's what it says on dictionary.com...

[Xfox]

-I absolutely must watch The Daily Show if it's a new episode.

-I collect action figures/toys and stuffed toys (Right over there to my right, among other things a Beast Boy figure, Inu-Yasha stuffed toy and Peorth figure).

-I watch my Mystery Science Theater 3000 tapes every chance I get, especially when there's an hour and a half window in my schedule.

-I write fanfiction (Actually, this is very recently. So far it's just a Teen Titans story and the beginning of a Fairly Odd Parents one).

-I write reviews on Amazon.

-I go to the mall every Tuesday after work to see the new DVD and CD releases.

Yes, I'm a dork and proud of it!

[randomguy]

-I've worked for a political campaign (McCain in 2000, baby!)
-I met blues great Jimmie Vaughan, and was physically incapable of speaking to him. Instead, my mouth hung agape and I probably looked like a recently caught bass.
-I liked Home Movies before The Landstander made it cool.
-I typed up this thing.

[Lord Dalek]

Forgot about one thing:

I've got Iron Chef Morimoto's autograph.

EMBRACE MY NERDYNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!

[shogunthethird]

Also, I have every star wars action figure associated with jabba and eventually intend to set up a figure diorama of his court.

Also I run this site (www.bogleech.com).

Also I'm 20 and I still insist on trick-or-treating. Noone will stop me.

I don't know if this constitutes being a geek or being a loser... you be the judge

[drippynmeatwad]

I used to think I was a dork, but then I read all the posts. Now I realize that I am not that bad. Well, being on here does add huge dork points. When I was little I had no friends, so I gave the alphabet, numbers, and colors gender. Man, I had fun with magnetic letters. Like G cheated on F with H and F lived alone for the rest of her life. And N and O used to date, then O dumped N for P. The Jerry Springer of the alphabet!

* dork is a whale reproductive organ found on a male.

[True Noir]

I dropped my summer P.E. class, because I don't know how to swim and I don't plan to learn anytime soon.

[sun]

Once, when my watch's batter ran out.... I actually used kept my Dreamcast memory card in my pocket and used its clock to keep track of time. :sad: People are very complex, I am not sure what you really mean...I guess, I am a Dork, or Nerd, but you have not defined them...I am also somewhat of an intellect, lazy slob, movie fan, toon fan, and fan of good and not so good things..I try not to hurt people, does that make me a "dork" and I am "sensitive". I guess that makes me a "dork" explain as Spock would say. :) Stuart p.s. does quoting "Spock" make me a nerd or dork?

I used to go around school telling people "you're going to die"

when they'd argue with me I'd reply with "we'll ALL die.......someday" yeah I was a weird kid and damn proud of it.:D

That is weird. (Imagines someone coming up to me and saying "you're going to die").

[Youko Recca]

*Imagines someone he doesn't know telling him that*

"Plan 9 from Outer Space." was so boreing there were only three of us left at the end..We had fun, if that is what it is to be a dork or geek, it is ok with me...

[CaseClosed15]

My sister wanted to do an adult version of Dora the explorer and I supplied Ideas.

I have no fashion sense

I'm clumsy

I like chalkzone

I'm 15 and I just recently(at 14) quit playing with barbie dolls:o

I harp on dark meanings in seemingly innocent things

I'm not athletic at all

Boys at school sometimes refer to me as "special" (is that good or bad?)

is that enough dork stats for ya? :D Also my mind is very corrupted right now.

Oh yeah, and I quit watching power rangers at like 12 or 13 (A little late):o

-I love Anime

Who thinks I'm a dork? Part of me says I am.

[Dark Soul]

Well I'm not going that far into my life but here it goes

I was the best in social studies class since I don't know when
I love anime
Sometimes my imagination runs wild when I watch anime
I study Japanese history for some reason even though I'm not Japanese
I surf the net a lot to find future episode summaries for my favorite anime

[Hurricane V1]

Someone probably already said this but there's a little bit of geek in every one of us.

In terms of fanboyism, I'm not much of a geek. I learned a long time ago after all my childhood heroes fell in downward slumps to never become too obsessed with any one person or product.

In terms of style and intelligence, I guess I'm pretty geeky. I wear tye dye shirts with anything no matter how much they clash. As a big fan of Macgyver, I'm always trying to come up with my own real Macgyverisms in real life.

And yes, I have to try to find a scientific explaination for everything in the entertainment industry. Unless it's meant to be totally unexplainable like Pr Farnsworth's inventions and explanations on Futurama, those are just hilarious. Just the other day some kid asked how Superman could fly and I started telling him all about the theory of telekinesis and how Superman could probably wield it on objects other than his body if he desired to do so.

[Phantasm]

I love Harry Potter.
i am obsessed and am crushing on Batman.
I love History and am possibly the only one who does not dose off in class.
I LOVE running around to play Cops and Robbers.(Trust me, the older you and your friends get the BETTER the game gets!;) )

I am in front of the computer like all the time!
I read batman comic books.
i LOVE Barnes and Noble Booksellers.
I love animated movies and am 17!:p

[Obi]

I became a moderator on a message board where most of the people were 20/30+ years old when I was 12.


Or does that make me some sort of child prodigy?

I'm always getting yelled at by my mom for being on the computer. She like, "You're eyes are going to get messed up." Nothing can pull me off. As for history, I don't like it but it can be interesting and I'm usually the only one awake in my class, too.

[HumanoidTyphoon]

When I go outside if it's night first thing I usually do is look for the moon
When I go outside if it's day first thing I usually do is look for different shapes in the clouds

I don't play them but I actually like the bagpipes

[JohnCrichton]

I have the Fellowship of the Ring movie cranked on my DVD home theatre system as "background music", as I clean up my house in preperation for a HALO party. :D

-Most of said books are either anthropology- or psychology- related
-The remainder of said books are mostly manga
-I don't like dating and wild partying (unless free food is envolved)

Other than that, I'm a pretty foxy young lady, if you catch my drift.

[EroSennin]

Since 1997 I have spend atleast 20 hours a week playing a MMORPG

[Master Moron]

IBut then there was when I listed everyone in my cellphone as a member of the Justice League.

That's freakin hilarious!

[Chad Bonin]

The highlight of my past, well, month... was AWA where...

I hugged a Mutsumi Otohime, got my picture with Mutsumi and Sailor Jupiter, and two people actually noticed my Dr. Tommy Oliver get-up... and one knew of Japan Hero.

[KWKeller]

i'd rather spend hundreds of dollars a year on videogames than on a girlfriend. oh well :D
Me too, except that most of the money goes to anime.

Let's see, some of my geek attributes are:
-The three websites I most commonly go to are Toon Zone, TrekBBS, and Station 8 - Gargoyles.
-I can tell you every piece of the Gargoyles Master Plan that has been revealed.
-I spend huge amounts of money on anime and manga.
-When not doing schoolwork or watching anime, my main hobbies are playing video games (especially Final Fantasy games), calculating the 3-dimensional coordinates of nearby stars (with Sol at point 0,0,0) using RA, Dec. and parallax, and translating manga (currently, it's Read or Die volume 1).
-I don't find being called antisocial offensive.
-I will go into great detail promoting Descriptive Grammar over Prescriptive Grammar.
-I have always, and always will, blindly support any Star Wars movie put out by George Lucas as well as any new versions he releases (I only slightly waiver on Greedo).
-If I won the lottery, I'd see if I could fund the production of a pilot episode for the Gargoyles spinoff "Timedancer".
-I have argued extensively on how each character in Evangelion is a facet of Shinji or a possible future version of Shinji.
-I have also argued extensively on how the Love Hina manga is infinitely superior to the anime and how the manga Motoko is superior to the anime Motoko.
-I read Megatokyo, Sluggy Freelance, and Penny Arcade religiously.
-I give hour long descriptions of half-hour long anime episodes.
-I watch far more cartoons than live action.
-When given the choice between a social life and video games, I choose video games every time.
-I own one of every Game Boy system that has ever come out, bought both Pokemon Red and Blue so I could get all the Pokemon, and got Mew the non-cheat way (from a Nintendo promotional tour).
-I wrote this list.

[JohnCrichton]

I played Zoids: Legacy (http://forums.toonzone.net/showthread.php?t=122681&page=1&pp=20) on my GBA while watching X-Play..... a show about video games. :shrug:

[Avery]

I *LARP*.

Easily the most socially repugnant thing a person can do.

Hey, at least I wear very little clothing while doing so . . .

[Hordesman]

I have several hundred action figures.

I've used my GBAdvance as a flashlight on several occassions.

Uncle****a from the South Park movie is my ringtone. It's 5 O'Clock Somehwere is my wake-up alarm.

I believe everything should be on DVD in its native language with subtitles. Which just might make the only person who wants Funky Cops subs on top of One Piece ones.

My youngest cousin loves when I visit because he can talk up a storm on Yugi-Oh and play the card game at family get-togethers.

I'm going to a con today dressed as Luffy.

I played it cool at a flea market once and got the second Speedy drug issue from Green Lantern/Green Arrow for $8.

My iPod? Well, I've got songs from South Park, One Piece, Digimon Advenutre, Chobits, Cardcaptor Sakura, DBZ, Yugi-Oh, Fushigi Yugi, Zanna Don't, King and I, Transformers the Movie, Moulin Rouge, Sailormoon, Rocky Horror, Avenue Q, De-Lovely, Powerpuff Girls Japanese dub, Wicked, Jerry Springer: the Opera, Boy From Oz, Down With Love, Mulan, Scarlet Pimpernel, the Italian dub of Da!Da!Da!, Scooby Doo, Shrek 2, the Beatles and Monty Python... so far. It's awesome to see song titles in Japanese.

I wake up each morning to a radio station with music I like, and morning hosts who never fail to make me feel like I'm listening to a station for my parents.

Imakuni is the only rapper I like. When I get the time, he's going on my 'Pod too.

Boba Fett is awesome as both mystery man and angry, evil little kid.

Ewoks eat people! They probably ate the Stormtroopers. Not cute... awesome.

After dealing with Dracula, Van Helsing had many more adventures. He found out Dracula had come back and was hiding at the Moulin Rouge, pretending to be a Duke. Carl infilitrated a group of Parisian bohemians as a crossdresser named Audrey. Later, VH fought Boo Berry and Count Chocula in a chocolate factory in Pennsylvania. And then, he went after Frankenstein's monster who was about to make himself a mate. Surely the Vatican wouldn't allow Frankenbabies to run about. But Frankenstein had already addressed this by making Frankenberry male and subsequently unable to produce.
Yu-G.I-Joe on fanfiction.net Yep- That's mine!:zim:

I've used my GBAdvance as a flashlight on several occassions.Bwahahahaahaha!!!! NICE! :D

Did I ever mention that for some reason, when I ride elevators and if I'm buy myself once the door closes more often than not.... I strike some kind of "It's Morphin' Time!" pose?

[ThePeterNetwork]

What makes me a geek? Let me count the ways...

I still live at home with my parents, (Oh, excuse me. I shouldn't be saying that. I mean, "My parents live with me.")
I haven't had a girlfriend since this one girl I had met online in Arizona, and that was five years ago.
I do not have a driver's license, and I don't want one because it's too expensive and people with emotional problems should not be driving!
I wake up at 5 in the morning to take a long, boring subway ride to a crappy job that pays practically nothing.
The Internet distracts me from what I ought to be using the computer for (writing, coloring artwork I have drawn, making Flash animations)
I have survivied conventions from two different animation fandoms (unfortunately, I choose not to attend anymore and must concentrate on real life)
Cartoons are my number one source of entertainment.
I have a growing collection of Disney animated movies on VHS, and I just started collecting DVDs.
I'm highly intelligent than most people, and creative.

I think that sums it all up.

[MahouShoujo13]

Here's this:

-I love going on the Internet and hanging out here, even though I'd rather be doing other things (like writing stories)
-In my pre-teen years, I was falling in love with anime and video game characters (ex: Gary from arcade game HOTD2, Aarin Gend from the PC game Neverwinter Nights, Shiryu from the anime Saint Seiya...). I'm now falling in love with adult guys now.
- I actually WANT my ringtones to be anime theme songs and when I have an iPod, fill it with anime themes and video game music remixes. And also with the usual songs my bro gets.
-I go to other forums. Lead me to a forum of my interest, and I'm in.

There's others also. :(

[HumanoidTyphoon]

I play Kings of Chaos
http://www.kingsofchaos.com/recruit.php?uniqid=ywq3i6d9

[ZorBrak]

I took some test and got 21% or so...pst I think it's more ;)

[Kury Wagner]

I thought of another reason I'm geeky:

I have a Spider-Man Wallet. :ack:

EDIT: I also have a huge poster for Spider-Man 2 that I got at the theater when I saw S-M2. It has Petey after the Ock fight, holding MJ. It's hanging up opposite my bed. :o

I also have an X2: X-Men United poster to the left of my bed, and two huge Harry Potter posters on the wall behind my bed.

And on top of my TV in my room, I have all my little X-Men and Harry Potter figures, and my LotR mini busts.

I own a Spider-Man shirt that I bought from the little boys department of Walmart. A X-Men shirt I bought off eBay. And a Marvel shirt (that has Wolverine, Spider-Man, Hulk, Iron Man, Thing, Capt. American, and Daredevil on it!) I bought from the little boys department of Target.

I'll post more tomorrow, maybe.

[Westlander]

I'm a smartass. That's another -2 points.
I still live with my parents.
I have a driver's license, but I hate driving. I don't even have a car.
I know that in Max Payne the Beretta clip capacity (as well as Desert Eagle one) was messed up.
I know that in Soldier of Fortune the basic pistol was really Glock 19, the LMG was FN Minimi (known in the US as M249) and the shotgun was SPAS12.
I know that Ernst Stavro Blofeld was Polish with Greek heritage.
I own at least 50 GI Joe action figures. And I'm angry that no female figures were EVER available in Poland.
I play table-top miniature wargames, with Necromunda being my favorite.
I play RPGs: D&D, Vampire and GURPS.
I have a cell phone with a MP3 player and full keyboard.
I can recognize the voices of a lot of voice actors starring in Polish versions of cartoons.

[GCFyouthcamper]

This thread has been around forever. Shogun has a post on the first page. :sweat:

I just remembered this. I once got my toy lightsaber and clipped it onto my belt and wore it for an entire evening at camp. Unfortunately it was dark and most people assumed it was a flashlight. Since it was a great open area and not so dark that night, I got my brothers and my other lightsabers and we played with them. That's when people took notice an were like, "There are some Star Wars geeks over there!"

[Kurtman]

I guess i'm quite a dork cause I have Asperger's Syndrome. I have an emotionless expression on my face and speak in a monotone. I have trouble reading social cues but i'm quite a logical thinker. I was in the spelling bee finals yet i'm socially naive. I can get very obsessed on certain subjects (Arena Rock/Southern Rock/New Wave music,Teen Titans,Family Guy and my old neighborhood in Omaha,NE) and fidget a lot in class. I also enjoy frequent social isolation and have quite a short temper. I especially blow up when my interests are insulted or when someone acts like an immature idiot and picks on my friends in a so-called "playful" way.

[Beguiled]

well i fall in love with people who aren't real, i stayed awake for hours when i noticed that the spider on my wall had dissapeared, i fall over my own feet, i get ticked off easily when people seem rude even if they were only joking, i say stupid things, i'm the class clown, i'm always asking for help, i blank out every five minutes, i'm a dreamer, i'd rather live in midieval fantasy times (song of the lioness by tamora peirce) and i can't think of any more yet...so i'll post them as they come.

True. One of my formal display Barbies has a spas12 (my shotgun of choice). I win. :D

[TimTwoFace]

I've spent many a Friday and Saturday night discussing comics and such on the internet.

Nerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrd. :D

[Westlander]

True. One of my formal display Barbies has a spas12 (my shotgun of choice). I win. :DHah! I'm not surprised it's your shotgun of choice, it's a gun for girls and grandpas! You feel almost no kick when you shoot! :D

Ha! That reminds me of the South Park ep with the cripple fight. :anime: But yeah, a geek fight would be funny. I'd sell tickets. :D

[Beguiled]

wow you just thought of that?! i've already sold five hundred of them! :D :p

[Otaku Bishop]

[Karl Olson]

I own roughly 240 anime dvds, and that comprises the vast majority of my dvd collection.
Twenty discs of which are Cardcaptor Sakura TV and both movies.
I own over 100 volumes of manga.
I own import anime and manga which I can't even understand properly.
I've easily spent over 300 dollars on coin figures/gachapon/statuettes/action figures.
I've run out of space for anime posters and wallscrolls, so I've been reduced to tacking stuff to the ceiling.
I've bought insanely overpriced anime artbooks.
I own atleast half dozen doujinshi, most of it Harry Potter doujinshi.
I'm a fan of british sci-fi, especially Dr. Who, Blake's 7 and Red Dwarf.
Star Trek? Yeah.
Star Wars? Yeah.
Stargate: SG1? Yeah.
Gravitation? Yeah.
I enjoyed and understood Steven Spielburg's A.I.
Participated all too much in that 2000+ post FLCL thread by overanalysing it like it was Eva.
Buying the Eva reissues inspite of owning the old boxset and the directors cut already.
Wrote short analysis paper of Chobits and connected it to Asimov and Aldiss.
I built my computer from the ground up, and it's a modded case with a rainbow LED fan.
I've got a perfectly functional computer sitting around doing nothing.
I've got a synth, a sampler and a sequencer/synth sitting around doing nothing.
I've still got my Care Bear from my childhood.
I play DDR, PumpItUp and ParaParaParadise.
I own a pong machine. Radioshack TV Scoreboard to be exact.
I own 4 of those 10-in-1 game controllers, I plan shill them out their cases and make one omega controller at some point.
I mostly listen to electronic music, anime OSTs and nerdcore rap.
I'm tempted to get the 12" vinyl release of Utada's "Devil Inside" because the remixes are better than the album track.
I've written electronic music since I was 12.
I've remixed two of the biggest names in nerdcore rap, MC Chris and MC Frontalot, and I'm on the brink of releasing my own nerdcore LP.
4 words: Mahou Shonen Karl Olson.


unstoppably dorktastical.

[Kury Wagner]

I've got more! Just a few hours ago I bought a Target gift card, just because it had Wolverine on in. :rolleyes: And I bought a pair of Harry Potter glasses. I also forgot to mention that I go to my local library weekly. :sweat:

That is how big of a geek I am. Ironically, as I write this, my Sailor Jupiter wallpaper pops up.

[Haruhara]

honest to god..im really not that much of a "nerd" *_*;


sure i like anime, but im not overly obsessed with it.

Actually, to me a TRUE dork is someone:

That loves Star Trek, Star Wars, Sci-fi?!
75 % of their life consists of reading
the other 25 % consists of being annoying
Hangs out with other dorks
Has exceptionally good grades
Has never flirted with a girl/boy for more than 10 minutes.

blah blahh blah. *_* and no im not an anarchist, and i hate punk/rock/skaa/techno/jrock/goth rock/classical. ^^

[Eddy]

I also have Nintendo boxer shorts.

[Barb Gordon]

ooo nice. I have Harry Potter and Batman boxers...if they had Pirates boxers I'd get those too...or Star Wars...hmmm *runs off to search for Jedi boxers*

Well I did dress up and hang out with Stormtroopers last month. And I have a custom Jedi belt and saber, and my car is decked out in Star Wars junk. And then there's the conversations with the Nightwing action figure in my room....but let's not get into that.... ;)

[Beguiled]

when i get overwhelmed i get stoopid. :D :anime: :) :sweat: yeah there's proof that i'm geek.

I also have NES controller boxers, smiley-face boxers and I am currently wearing Dr. Seuss boxers.

Aw snap. I win.
