.... I got excited over winning the Bug catching trophy on Animal Crossing on my DS and bragged about it. >_<
When did you realise you were a massive geek?

Erm. When I was six and wanted to stay in and watch my video of The Life of Brian instead of going 'down the rec' to play with my friends.
To be fair, I did catch an oak silk moth which tends to be rare, although I rock at fishing rather than bug catching.
STOP ROO.
When I made a superhero mask out of a bit of old cloth.
I was 36.
Well, two people told me I looked like a geek at the meet. Mentioning no names. But one of them starts with 'Ben'.
When a friend told me in grade school to return a Dungeons and Dragons game I had just bought because it would ruin his our friendship and his popularity.

Geeks rock....
When I was about 16 and I's rather stay in playing World Of Warcraft than get drunk.
But I had a feeling I was a geek before that to be honest...

...my friends called me Plain Jane Super Brain* at school. To be fair at my East London comp if you could spell your own name you were put in the top set.
I also still own a Rubik's Cube - top time 1min 23 (or something) so I'm maintaining my geek status by continuing with that when normal people stopped about 20 years ago, and by my obsession with all things comedy.
It's good to know I'm not totally alone.

But was it written by a geek?
This is like some sort of weird 'outing' party (not that I would know what that was).
Hmm, I first realised I wasn't like other boys...after reading 2000AD. It did rock my formative years and put me on the path to geekville.
Oooh Shakespeare RC - we posted at the same time.
Damn! More geekness.
When I preferred to 'get creative' with a Apple Mac rather than with a pencil or paintbrush.

They were always calling boys 'a real spunk'. I grew out of my Aussie soap watching many years ago especially Neighbours. Whenever someone had a big problem, there would always be an instant solution - 'Don't worry everyone, Bouncer's shit money!'
My biggest shock Aussie soap-wise was when I hadn't watched 'Home and Away' for a long time. I tuned in and the whiny little pig faced girl (Sally?) had suddenly grown breasts the size of her porcine head. I was disturbed and aroused.
I haven't realised yet, I still think I'm a Jock.
