(I had originally saved two, but a friend told me to watch the one because he figured it would tie into DS9 at some point, but it never did.)

Now that I think about it, I may have just created a new category for "how geeky are you?"

That is a whole world of Geeky, but damn I wish I had thought of that. Now the Magic is gone, I've seen them all.....

Which one is it on the tape?

Ok, Ok.

Do you have an entire set of Star Trek: TNG collector trading cards?

I still have mine, my sisters collected all but Dr. Pulaski, which they used to try to steal out of my binder.

That is from the deepest quadrants of geekdom right there.

Wow. I'm surprised you would admit to that. The Pulaski card was weak anyways.

Nope, because at some point somebody will go and ruin it by telling me that Wesley Crusher ends up saving the ship. (Not that I don't trust you guys or anything.)

Ruin it? No, no one on CP would do that to you.

BTW, yes, yes he does. But only because it was his fault the ship was in danger to begin with....

Hey man, those were the days when you could actually buy a pack of trading cards for 99 cents. Not the freaking 5$ or w/e per pack.

This is true. But these days I am no longer inclined to collect trading cards. I passed that stage a while back.

I remember having to quit collecting comics becasue I couldnt afford them anymore. Crap deal man. Crap deal.

Do you cheer for the Edmonton Oilers?

Did you phone in sick to work to be the first to see Star Wars/Lord of the Rings?

Do you sign off your e-mails "May the force be with you"?

Does your license plate read "LUVSPOK" or "NCC-1701"?

I could go on forever, my old roommate lived in this world....

Somewhat related to Caramons: Do you know what a Mox Diamond and a Black Lotus are?

Have you gone onto an internet forum to compile a list of geeky things?

Do you know what a lolcat is?

Do you have more than 5000 edits on Wikipedia?

...four things that I would fail on.

Do you know who axxo is?

Do you own a D-20 or have you rolled a "critical hit" before?

Do you own anything from a Todd McFarline series?

How many times have you seen Revenge of the Nerds?

Incidentally, I saw a car today with a giant Star Wars Rebel Alliance sticker on the back window.

In the embarrasing category, I saw a guy with obvious self-confidence issues driving an F350 with a licence plate of "ALL MAN".

OK, I got a new one:

In 2001 when there was an email campagn to get "Jedi Knight" listed as an official religion (anything with 50,000 people was considered official), did you tell the Cencus people your religion was Jedi Knight?

And I'll let you guys guess my answer to that.

numerous times? Cause I have. Without exageration, I can say that I've seen the two towers over 50 times. Way over actually, but probably less than 100.

Holy hell man. Thats like at least 175 hours of your life. That is more than a solid week of watching one movie non-stop.
