Underling Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Meanwhile...You know you're a nerd when one of the first things you do when you get a GPS is put the voice of GLaDOS on it.That's genius... "In 300 yards, turn left. Not turning left will result in a failed grade, followed by death." "You are now arriving at [sUBJECT HOMETOWN HERE]." "Drive straight for-AH! BIRD! BIRD! KILL IT! IT'S EVIL!"You know you're a nerd when seeing the name GLaDOS makes you remember all the best quotes from Portal. You ALSO know you're a nerd when someone asks you a simple history question about Ancient Rome and you immediately respond with "There's a backstory to this," and then launch into the backstory. Maybe that's specifically me though. >.> [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]We will lead by example. Link to comment

KAllen Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 But did any of you have the balls to punch him (theonlyreasonSiskogetsmentionedinbestcaptaindebates)?Klingons thought their gods were more trouble than they were worth, so they killed them... Yes we would punch a Q in a heartbeat.Couldn't the Q just kill the Tribbles instead of having an "inferior race" do it for them?Klingons killed the Tribbles long time ago. Killing the Ewoks is our job, getting there was theirs. "Inferior"...I don't think so!!!

"You are now arriving at [sUBJECT HOMETOWN HERE]." "Drive straight for-AH! BIRD! BIRD! KILL IT! IT'S EVIL!"Sadly, the voice pack didn't come with any passive-aggressive comments. It still fills me with glee to hear her voice, though.You ALSO know you're a nerd when someone asks you a simple history question about Ancient Rome and you immediately respond with "There's a backstory to this," and then launch into the backstory.

It gets really fun when I'm watching Jeopardy with her... Link to comment

D_chelyst Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 ...when you and your hubby start quoting lines from movies and shows back and forth to each other (Dark Knight, Sherlock Holmes, FLCL, etc.) at random times during the dayAlso...You know your hubby is a nerd when he can do certain scenes of Heath Ledger's Joker perfectly, down to inflections/tone/body movements, because he's been studying it so intently Current inspiration for my journey: Prov. 14:23All hard work brings a profit, but mere talk leads only to poverty.
