I'm sure there are plenty of things, but I just want to hear one.

I changed the ring tone on my work phone to the 24 ringtone. My favorite part was that the name of the ringer in the phone was "24". :)

You know, everything I do is so nerdy it's hard to single one thing out.

Well, in basic music theory (wheeeoooo pre-req's :thumbsdown:) I calculated intervals in my head while the prof went step-by-step with an interval wheel. The (rest) of the class got through three intervals, I did the whole sheet with ~95% accuracy. Yay music nerd!

Music is very fun though.

Indeed. Sitting through a class covering stuff I learned (literally) in second grade is not heh. Although I suppose what we did today was more middle school.

I swore at idiots in warhammer who don't know how to pvp.

You'd be laughing gleefully if they were on the other team :)

Yeah, I'm taking a Guitar class in school and I already know everything that is taught. The class is incredibly boring.

Other than the fact that I work as a programmer?

I read about 15 reviews of the T-Mobile G1.

I don't think that counts as nerdy. My cellphone's ring tone is the same as yours, though.

The nerdiest thing I did today was read this Wikipedia article:
Mental Math

Edit: did you say "work phone"? That is indeed nerdy. At first I thought it was your cellphone.

Haha I have that ringtone on my phone as well. Jack Bauer ftw.

As for my nerdiness, I went to work (software developer).

nope. work phone. It was Cisco IP Phone so I was expecting the ringer to be pre-programmed in there, but I didn' expect them to actually call it "24". :)
