| This was fantastic. If it weren't for the over-the-top religious weirdness partway through, I could see this being real. C'mon, we all know these people... Admit it. And secretly, you want to join them for a session, don't you?

| Not even in my deepest dreams! Hey, I'm watching SuperBowl this Sunday after grilling steak, having some alcohol, and having fun with friends and family.
That was funny, Gav.

| ohh someone shoot me, I know people like this!
One of my roomates looks like the guy with glasses, but he just playes Final Fantasy all day and night in his room. In two semesters I can count the number of times I have seen him outside of his room on one hand.

Geekiness is like alcoholism, you never truly get over it you just remember to take it one day at a time resisting the urge to break out the old DND books.

| It's watching things like (even though it's obviously a spoof) this and Trekkies that make me feel not so bad about my geekdom.

| I knew several guys like that, and let me tell you about one of them.
He was a textbook example, a definition of GAMER. Pimples, greasy hair, thick glasses and a chainmail shirt that he made...and wore...in public...
When I went to New York he asked me to buy a special deck of roleplaying cards that had some kind of ubercard that he was missing at that time. But it was a holiday and everything was closed, and I didn't want to go looking for that store. So I told him I went there and it was closed, and I brought him a Hustler instead, just for hahas. It wasn't a regular one, but an XXX edition.
He didn't come to college the following day.
He's now seeing a girl. True story.
