One guy was in track and field. One guy was sort of a bodybuilder (he worked out a lot and was "ripped"). One guy was a pot head (not cool, but not what you think of as a "nerd"). Most of us dated girls here and there, and some of us had a girlfriend at one time or another while we played D&D (my girlfriend at one point was a cheerleader -- yes, really).There were some of my fellow gamers who fit the stereotype of "nerd D&D player," but they were not the majority.In my early twenties, I would go clubbing and dancing on Friday and Saturday nights, and then play games with my friends on Sunday night.I think becoming a dad has made me more uncool than gaming ever did.<a href="http://www.totalbullgrit.com/2008/09/27/geek-in-preppy-clothing/" target="_blank">Geek in Preppy Clothing</a><a href="http://www.totalbullgrit.com/2008/07/03/geeks-nerds-dorks/" target="_blank">Geeks Nerds Dorks</a>Bullgrit</blockquote>
