I once argued with someone about whether a sonic screwdriver is better than a lightsaber.
It definitely is.

That's just because Doctor Who is far better than Star Wars.
I wouldn't really call that "nerdom" though.
I've had many a conversation like that.
Mainly boredom induced.

Self professed nerd-dom is probably the worst kind.
Complacency in being a socially awkward virgin is right up there with NAMBLA membership.

I once argued a guy studying medicine about shark's antibodies and how they react to different antigens, and the conversation went to include humans and all, i was in the 11th... He told me that he has to get back to his books about it xD
Hehe
So yea... I'm proudly a nerd

You mean knew, right? John's been dead for three years. Or do you mean some guy that owns a DeLorean. You can still buy one "brand new".

I can be rather nerdy about fishkeeping, but I certainly do not know everything or even keep a Biotope let alone a marine setup, so I don't think I could really class myself as a nerd. I don't have any difficult, sensitive or unusual species.
I do however, come down heavily on those who don't do even the most basic research , and who end up wondering why the goldfish they have in a tiny bowl keep dying, or their Siamese algae eater keeps attacking everything.
So I would say nerdish in some areas without actually being a nerd.

Malice - If you cannot identify sarcasm when it is dancing naked in front of you, then you must be a bigger idiot than Sombrero Mind.

In that case, allow me to take this opportunity to ask a quick question.
Is this a decent weapon Colt Match Target HB? My cellphone doesn't take very good pictures.
