Yeah, he seriously just sat in one of the wing-chairs with his laptop on a TV tray playing Ragnarok (I think), not reacting to anything. It was hilarious.

My friend was right behind me and said "Yeah, we are all furries." And then about 15 minutes later I found out my friend was bisexual, and started getting naked with his BF.

I just packed up my stuff and said "I gotta go".

I don't mind furries. But I never knew that my friend was one. And Bisexual. And was willing to have open sex at a LAN party.

That reminds me of the one time a friend of ours tried hosting a LAN party. Guys started making out with each other. People with significant others started making out with other people. The host disappeared for a while to have sex. Someone turned on some porn and another person got mad because they wanted to watch "Naruto." Someone tried to fuck the host's dog.

My entire life is a nerdy adventure. There are too many instances to name. And none of which I can remember right now.

Except figuring out that my carpool buddies and I are all members of the Big Band Theory.

I bought shirts off of shirt.woot.com

These shirts I bought are as follows:

A shirt referencing multiple books that are considered great literature.

A shirt showing Abraham Lincoln wrestling three bears, and winning.

A shirt which is a reference to Romeo & Juliet, as it is a shirt advertising the "Verona Apothecary, preferred by star-cross'd lovers."

Unrelated, but still nerdy, I met a WoW friend.


Embarrassing-wise, I've met with Katana in social situations.

Ok... Rogue wins. And yes, Quark = Al, totally.

More of my stuff:

I was more giddy on my first legal trip to Vegas because we were staying at the Hilton with the Star Trek Experience than for any other reason. I miss the Warp Core Breech!

I had to pick and choose which Honor Societies to accept invitations from.

I was a member of the Science Club in high school... where we mainly played D&D and M:TG.

I was the first female president of the LBCC Gaming Club

Volunteered to work in the game room on Friday mornings for a semester (actually really fun, I miss that game room).

I own more fantasy fiction books than anything else.

The top shelf of my bookshelf is filled with miniatures.

I can say things in Elvish

I buy a new set of dice for every campaign I am in because I'm one of those folk that believe that each set is character specific.

I went to a friend's Star Wars party with a copy of the Holiday Special, which someone eventually got fed up with enough to eject the tape and shove it down his pants so no one else could watch it the rest of the night.

But continuing on with specific nerdy and simultaneously embarrassing moments...

We crashed a Renaissance faire afterparty and fairefolk only concert.

Literally right after sex... discussed which "Deadwood" characters are equivalent to "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" characters. Quark is SOOOO Al .

I appear on the "Mallrats" 10th anniversary DVD asking Jason Lee to sing "Fever Dog."

When I was in high school, I devastated my mom saying I didn't consider myself Catholic anymore, and she started saying, "God bless you" instead of saying good-bye. I started answering her with, "I love you and may the Force be with you."

My friend, Christina, and I used to go to school dressed up for Talk Like a Pirate Day. While in history class (which the topic was actually on privateering), this girl sitting in front of us made a comment about how no one actually celebrates a "stupid, internet holiday like Talk Like a Pirate Day."

My 22nd birthday was spent taking action shots at the rocks they used for shooting Star Trek among many other things. Example

I quoted Shakespeare at people whenever I got teased in middle school. Yep, not embarrassing to look back on at all.

I have recurring nightmares about missing conventions, or being there and not doing anything. I've done more than 50 cons, and they've consumed my life.

And just to prove I do stupid, geeky, embarrassing shit internationally...

We weirded out British people while we were taking pictures pretending to run a luggage cart into the column between platforms 9 and 10 at King's Cross Station.

I've sent corrections for mistakes in the comic books i've read to the editors and publishers. I have stacks of unfinished home grown comics right next to me.

Oh jeez, I hosted 2 Star Wars Ice Cream Sleepovers. They were amazing.

I went to a LARP and host D&D games at my apartment. I win.

Seriously though, I nerd out and get giddy when I catch historical references. I correct inaccuracies in movies and tv shows dealing with subjects I have studied. I lecture at the drop of a hat, and I got a smartphone to post on the board while at work.

I bumped into Kevin Smith, pulled out a random comic from my backpack and handed it to him asking him to tear it and sign it "Ripped officially by Kevin Smith." He caught the reference and did it.

I got shoved up against the wall and shoved out of the way by mulleted, flannel-wearing dykes after a film screening because they were all trying to claw their way to Lucy Lawless.

It's 3 in the morning. I'll post more when I remember them.

In one of the assembly's back in high school my line of friends got the "Crab People" chant going.

My school was nerdy as hell though. Senior skip day was Halo 2's release, so yeah...

Let's see, I'm embarrassed pretty easily so I'd have to say... Probably whenever Scott and I do our "Die monster, you don't belong in this world!" tangent. We'll throw it into the middle of a conversation something like this:

Random person: "Yeah, my toothpaste left a nasty taste in my mouth."
Me: "Die toothpaste, you don't belong in this mouth!"
Scott: "It was not by my fluoride I am once again making your mouth fresh! I was called here by dentists who wish to use me instead of Trident!"
Me: "Trident?! You steal my mouth's bacteria and make them your slaves!"
Scott: "Perhaps the same could be said of all dental hygiene products..."
Me: "Your words are as empty as my mouthwash bottle! The Tooth Fairy ill needs a Colgate such as you!"
Scott: "WHAT IS A TOOTH FAIRY?! A miserable little pile of baby teeth! But enough talk, HAVE AT YOU!"

These are the defining moments of my life.

MoMocon, 2009. Rickrolling hundreds of people at Karaoke. I'm very, very sorry.
