    When me mot first saw me on boards, she reckoned I was on a dating site or trying to get to know Boards Burds so i wud get a rattle on the side.

    Now shes over all that, but now she reckons im just a big nerd and so are the rest of the boards users. Now im no munter but im certainly not brad pitt, but me mot is in great nick and well worth a rattle so i must be doin something right.

    Are we nerds and are nerds sexy? All this slagging is impacting me ego and me mojo!

    Nerds on boards.ie well maybe for the moderators and the super users but the majority aren't.

    Super users are posters with 10 posts a day to their name.

    The internet hasn't been very nerdy for a while. I blame idiot sites like bobo for attracting all the "norms".

    Well little does my g/f realise for all her addressing me as a nerd for being on boards her life has been greatly enhanced through me, as a medium who transfers the wealth of knowledge boards has to offer both in solving lifes everyday little foybles to the big questions such as 'Does David Hasselhoff trim his pubes'!!!!

    That reminds me; does any remember that text service a boards member started up? I think it was called "Brains to burn". Solved many a pub arguement for me at least.

    People with their computer specs in their sigs are nerds :) Nerds are nice people though, they dont hurt anyone and create little cultures of interest in things that arent supposed to be interesting.

    I love star trek tho so that probably makes me an ubernerdgeek.

    Whenever I'm in Dublin, I always make sure to stop bye and spit on those kids, who kindof look up to me oddly. "He spat on me, yay!"
    True story.


    My best friend loves MCR and HIM. :eek:
