who is the biggest nerd here?

[azazyel]

We all like computers (I am assuming) but what other geek qualities are people hidding. Or when was the last time anyone let their geek flag fly?

 

[azazyel]

Alright, so this thread is going to a slow death. I will see if I can get the ball rolling:

I like star trek voyager
I think dos is the most usefull thing on my comp
I laugh at people with AOL or web tv
I know that the answer to the ultimate question of life the universe and everything is 42
I could have been Wyatt from weird science durring junior high

 

[DAM]

azazyel: you are wrong dude the the question to which the answer is 42 is "how many roads must a man walk down?" or something to that effect, any true geek would know that.

and heres another one for you, i have problems remembering phone numbers or my own, it took me forever to remember my SS, but i know about 20 ips and whos computer they belong to.

[azazyel]

But the question that was asked to Deep Thought was "What is the answer to the Ultimate Question of the life the universe and everything"

Earth was then made to find the actual question.

the IPS thing was very nerd worthy.

 

[DAM]

yes that was the question that was asked, but since the answer made no sense they had to chance the question to make sense. do you remeber how they got the actual answer???

ok ok, so you know that it was originally a trilogy in five parts :--P



answer me this, what was the restaurant at the end of the universe and what was its main feature?

[azazyel]

Come on....

It was a space craft (resturant) that would go forward in time to the end of the universe and then at the moment of the end would go back in time.

Now, what was the name of the resturant?

 

[DAM]

[azazyel]

remember friends don't let friends drink and derive.

anyone else want to try to stump the nerd?

 

[Killbat]

Make a distinction between geek and nerd. I don't consider myself to be a traditional "nerd", but I am a geek.

A quick look around my bedroom

 

[azazyel]

I think you passed geek a while ago...Personally I like to think of myself as a reformed nerd.

Actually that is a good question. Geek vs. Nerd

 

[DJ_Donut]

nice room killbat

are those cartriges next to mario for atari/intelivisons?

what kind of books do you have in ur bookshelve

 

[CasioTech]

my brother can remember 3,000 places of pi

and his I.Q is 159

 

[Killbat]

Those are Atari 2600 carts. Those books cover all sorts of crud, like programming (you can see the C++ and MFCP) books, and a few books on how to make NT4 almost work correctly some times.

 

[pdo]

Paulson is probably the biggest nerd here.

 

[azazyel]

after that thread of the everclear in the coffee I would have to agree.

 

[beer]

I know, he was so pulling that stuff out of his ass.

"He coughed up blood!" ROFL
