pot-head nerd from england

I don't know if they're rare or not

They are rare when you live north west of England, trust me you would know what I mean if you saw this place.

YouTube - salford slums/ langworthy road

This place is about 3 blocks from me.

I collect comic books and have genuine World of Warcraft action figures posed on my desk. Top that wannabe nerds!

I have most definitely put over 2000 hours into Fallout 3. That's not an exaggeration either. 83 days and counting.

I have an Alien Queen Diorama that cost me £400 because only 1000 of them were made world wide. I have a £2500 gaming pc I put together myself, I have my PC on a 37' HDTV and have a dual dvi hooked to another 21 and a half inch monitor for using msn while gaming. I have hundreds of games, books on history and science.

That's nerdy.

You know, it's funny even without guns here we still have a massive knife problem. Too many weirdos and cowards.

I don't think the Vice Lords or the Gangster Disciples are looking after the security of a free state

Wow were off topic. The actions of the few should hinder the rights of others? Thats so American! Don't solve the problem just take away another freedom!

Gaming shouldn't even be considered nerdy anymore, my sister "games" sometimes and she's practically a supermodel. The elderly "game". Pornstars "game". Popular jocks "game". lol

Well, that's when you get into the differences between geeks and nerds. There are conflicting definitions and grey areas and the terms tend to get used interchangeably. It depends who you ask, but as far as I'm aware, nerds are the brainy, intellectual types, geeks are obsessed with something, and dorks are socially inept. So you can be a star wars geek or a gamer geek, but of average or below average intelligence. If you're a super smart physics nerd, well then you're probably a physics geek too, and perhaps an awkward dork on top of that. I think of myself as more of a geek but sometimes I call myself a nerd. Really, I'm a bit of all three. I like math and science, I'm intelligent but not a genius, I love nerdy humour, I spend too much time on the computer, I have minimal social skills, etc. Or, as I like to put it, I belong to the three way intersection of nerd, geek, and dork!:😛:



...or something like that.:😛:

The Government is good at doing that. Like for example the MP's finance scandal. Took away our freedom in a sense for years without even the public knowing. Lining their pockets with our money. Happens all over the world. Blaming it on the minority of rules that were laid out to them by their fellow MP's.

Jesus I think this post is completely irrelevant to what we were just discussing, think I need to get some sleep and stop smoking the green stuff. Rant quite alot.

No, they just think they are.

Maybe the Latin Kings are - they've got less territory and more mouths to feed
