Cool Bragging Rights: Post your nerd cred

So, you belong to a niche internet community dedicated to a 12 year old MMORPG. You not only dabble in the game that is known for its dangerous addiction and ultra geeky fan-base, but you participate in the forums and culture revolving around it. That said, you most likely consider yourself a computer nerd or gamer geek of some sort (if you don't: denial). And if you're anything like me, you're damn proud of it.

P99 probably isn't your first stop on the internet or your first adventure in tech culture. Hopefully you are proud of your lifetime of nerdy activities, and should be eager to show off your conquests and accomplishments.

Do you pride yourself in how sweet your computer is? Or maybe you've beat every NES game known to man. Do you own an authentic Storm Trooper costume, or have you built your own Tony Stark arc reactor? Maybe you've scored millions of YouTube hits, but its ok too you've just posted millions of Digg comments. Do you prefer Linux and religiously use open source software? Or maybe you jailbreak your Apple hardware to make it your bitch. Are you a famous internet artist, or are you a famous internet troll?

Whatever it is that defines you as a geek/nerd/hipster/connoisseur/fan-boy/ or something, hopefully you're eager to show it off. So I invite you to brag a little here and share what kind of nerd cred you've built up. Anything goes, i'd say.

P99: +1

When I was 8 I was in a tech magazine for Intel. I was holding a mouse by its cord in front of my face looking disgusted.

Pretty distinguished, if I do say so myself.



Also, I'm Tralina. That's where all my e-cred comes from.

And that is why I'm a socially-evasive nerd. Feelsgr8man.

My house is littered with computers/parts. Had 500,000+ hits on the angelfire FF7 website I made with my friend when I was in elementary school. 100,000+ on the pokemon one I made (yes still in elementary school). Messed around with QBasic 3d code (Yeah, still elementary school)

Discovered girls in middle school and stopped programming so I could get laid... So that's the point where I stop being able to effectively nerd-brag.

Fixed to be less of a lie. You know you had it coming! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
