I'm curious what the nerd level of /jp/ is for things outside /jp/'s usual content. What nerdy things do you like other than VNs, figs, anime, and tohou?

Myslef, I'm a computer nerd, I was in a Linux User's Group for a while. I can program a bit of Java, C, C++ and bash shell scripts. I play games occasionally but I'm not really a gamer(casul DS owner). I like planes but don't go airport-watching. I know far too much about military hardware. I've been called a shutterbug but I don't consider myself a photographer. I like architechture and industrial design stuff and took some course in school.

Oh, and most importantly, I wear glasses. Nerrrrrrrrd.

How about you?

- Music. I've been a gigantic music nerd since I was 15 or so.
- Politics and Ethics. Yes, yes I know.
- Traveling/languages/culture. I come from sort of a restless/rootless family so it's in my DNA.

I'm a video game/anime nerd. I also watch Star Trek and the such. I dip into the computer stuff every now and then but I'm no PC technician. My life is devoted to video games. I love nothing more than to have a control in my hand. Its like ecstasy for me, people tell me I need to get a life but fuck them

I like being the way I am.

Did I mention I hate hipsters,scene kids and normalfags who go around using the word "nerd" just because they watched one episode of star trek or because they played Halo a few times. Being a nerd is not a fashion accessory. Stop trying to jump on the bandwagon of something you have no interest in.

I am a nerd of all trades. More or less than the only things that don't apply to me are things that could conceivably be considered useful, e.g. knowledge of actual science as opposed to Star Wars science, or programming ability, or just knowing how to work a computer for shit other than illegal downloads and video games, shit like that.

I'm a movie buff, history buff, big reader (sci fi and fantasy especially on top of classic literature and other stuff people wouldn't scoff at), watch all sorts of sci-fi, I build elaborate lego kingdoms and act out storylines when I have the room, I still play with actual action figures (Spider-man and such), and most of all I play a fucking obscene amount of video games.

So, yeah. Only problem is my memory is terrible so I forget details of everything incredibly fast, and certain things like the internet and video games wind up monopolizing all my time and choking out all my other hobbies and interests most of the time. I really need to set aside more time for reading. Oh, and I guess I don't look like a stereotypical nerd. Still perfect 20/20 vision too.

Uh, I use Arch Linux and am one of the top players in an organized CoD4 tournament. I know basically how Linux works, but have no idea what happens inside the kernel sans modules. I built my own computer for $1,000 two years ago. I papercrafted a Timber Wolf, Waha, & Maneki Neko, and currently am working on a YF-19 (damn fuselage). I know how to use Avisynth and do some freelance work encoding Anonymous' translations. I own a $300 scanner from way back in 1995 and still use it. No matter how long I use the computer (14 hours straight, amirite), my eyes are still 20/20.

But I go outside, have a job (network administrator, lol), and have friends that are not interested in comics, anime, mangoes, or toehoes. Most of the stuff we do is centered around the expensive 'sport' of Paintball.

Sometimes it feels like I've read every scifi book ever written. Read lots of comics when I was a bit younger, and still have a head full of absurdly detailed knowledge.

I like languages, but it's a comparitively recent thing, and I only speak a couple decently.

I work out a lot and a know a a fair bit about that kind of thing. Maybe not normally nerdy, but I'm not just some fag who learns everything from /fit/, I'm fairly serious, so I guess my level/type of interest in it makes it nerdy.

My weirdest thing is transcribing conversations that I hear in public places, I have stacks of notebooks. I also (less frequently) make detailed notes about certain events or locations.

I love computers and am fairly knowledgeable about hardware and how shit works in general, but my programming skills are limited to basic scripting. I collect massive amounts of music and movies, both in physical and digital form, and I obsess over keeping the physical copies in perfect condition. Fingerprints and scratches drive me nuts, which is also why I avoid buying stuff from RL music/video stores if the items aren't shrinkwrapped. I HATE it when the staff touches my discs, they seem to love running their dirty, greasy fingers all over the place.

When I don't masturbate furiously over my media collection, I play video games or read the occasional book. I used to read a lot more when I was younger, don't know what the hell happened to that really.

Since guns were brought in: I own a few, and most of my money gets spent on guns/bullets.

I do some political reading(currently reading Locke's "The Second treatise of Government") but often times I only read about 10 pages at a time, while when I'm reading a non-shitty fiction book I can read for hours on end.
I also spend at least 3 hours a day on the computer, much much more on days I'm off from work, although that's probably the majority of 4chan.
