It struck me in chat the other day, when all 4 of us wore glass's, and 2 of us had Braces, that we really do seem to be following the sterio type of the gamer :) How many people here ARENT tall thin and wear glasses or braces?


PS. It was Lady_Ruiner and Skumboy who had braces, feel free to mock them both:p

Hmmm.. I'm 35 (aaarghhh..), short, slightly overweight (I think that's allowed at 35). In a stable relationship getting perilously close to ending my treasured bachelor status. No braces. I don't wear glasses. OK I wear contacts, and if I didn't wear them I WOULD wear glasses, but...

I'd love to be a geek. Just as long as it's a make a fortune in crap software and have more money than most of the third world type geek !

As a matter of fact, I work out on a regular basis. Martial arts(Tae Kwon Do, Shaolin Kempo) is what's been my addiction lately. 5' 10" and 150 may not be Schwartzenegger, but it's great for martial arts.

I hit the free weights whenever I have time.

I'm also skilled with firearms, as is my sister trinity (being raised in a military family is nice).

On the Red corner, at 5' 8" and weighing in at a healthy 185lbs. GunnerX!!

He spends 10-14 hours a day on the computer and 2 hours watching TV. He works out with free weights and is a cyclist. His next tour will be the Ride for Heart, a 70KM trek through Toronto's highway. He listen's to all type of music.

And... He wears glasses!!

NERD!!! :p

NOT! :) I like computer's and it's involved with more than 1/2 my life but, I don't think I'm a geek or a nerd. :)

BTW, I also enjoy Paintball.

Hmmm, let's see, 5'10", 190lbs, long hair, contacts (for the past 10 years now, though I took a year off and am now looking at laser eye surgery). I *used* to be thin, but then I got a job and a steady g/f and don't have time to go to the gym anymore.

Yeah, I'm a computer nerd (been using computers for the past 15 years, since I was 9), but I've come to terms with it and now I'm using it to my advantage. Got a great job using computers that pays very well. I'm not ashamed of my geekdom ;)

i hate to be serious here, but what the hell is wrong with being a geek? There's nothing wrong with being odd, it's conformity that is evil! WTF is wrong with glasses? I wear 'em, but I'm no geek. True, this game is cutting into my social life, but I still party on the weekends...
And as for looking like a geek, and being out-of-shape, I can bench press more than I weigh, so I think Im OK...
And as for spending too much time with my computer, I am not a nerd, I prefer the term "Techno-Diva"
