Top Ten Geekiest Hobbies

[Shemeska]

Only 2, for shame. And yes, the list misses stuff... like one of my players reading Stargate slash fic during a pause in my game. That deserves a place in that list. And of course she won't complain here on this thread otherwise she'll be pointing out which of my female players she is who did this. Muha.

I'm shocked that this image hasn't showed up on this thread already, but I do feel obligated to post it. I think this is a much more accurate hierarchy.

As to the chart, I've really only got 9 & 10. Even though I work at a comic and gaming store, I know geeks who are much, MUCH worse than me.

 

[knitnerd]

Knitting didn't make the List!

I guess knitting is kool!

 

[Chingerspy]

3 out of 10 for me...

Even though I have followed LARPers around. I don't think pulling funny faces and spilling beer on them counts Roll on Conception 2005 I say lets see if I can get that no.1 spot LOL

 

[Morpheus]

Two-Roleplayer (of course!) and Trekker (TOS only please)...

A friend of mine is fond of saying that the definition of a Geek is someone that eats more paste than you.

The top 10 list is trying to quantify degrees of paste-eating.

Its a safe bet that anyone who reads this forum has sticky lips.

 

[Gunslinger]

D&D (obviously), Star Wars (own the movies, read most of the books, never dressed up or anything though), used to play CCGs (only magic, and that was years ago so we won't count it...), and does it still count if i'm addicted to an MMORPG other than Everquest?

 

[Xaov]

I have 2 for me. RPGing and Card game collecting (magic).

I was also hoping to be a bit more geeky. I mean where the hell is Anime on that list. I think Vampirism should go and be replaced with ANime but thats just my thought on the matter.

 

[Inconsequenti-AL]

I'm a half klingon/half dark elf Norrathian vampire ninja.

When I'm not busy RLRPing(*) I enjoy dressing up as my superheroic alter ego - Mr Fluffykins the erotic squirrel.

(*)Real Life Role Play - like LARP, but the lightsabers and magic are real.


But people who play collectable cardgames - they've really got PROBLEMS.

 

[MonsterMash]

Only 2 for me. Not sure whether to be disapointed or relieved?
