    I went through a phase with World of Warcraft, got really really into it. I also used to watch tons of anime, read tons of manga, and play lots of video games. I still rate myself at least a 8.5. Oh and I had an R2-D2 lunch box, Darth Vater bag, and a big yoda hat. So scratch that and make it a 9, no need to be stingy with the nerd points lol.

    More then likely, because I known the origin of the word, Nerd. A Dr. Seuss book called "If I Ran the Zoo." It all depends on your qualification of the connotation.

    Maybe.... In midlife, and still read college chem books and simplify equations for fun. No work related basis.

    I am a nerd. And I am proud of it. I mean, I am not a complete nerd, pasty white skin, sheltered from the outside, and locked inside my basement with technology. I participate in sports and various arts. But at heart I am a nerd. A music nerd. A history nerd. And I love being a nerd.

    Sadly, I'm probably the nerdiest person that has answered this question yet, so I'll give myself a 7 I suppose.

    I play Dungeons and Dragons more than once a week, and I know how to play just about every tabletop setting you can think of. I know website programming like it is another language I speak. Batman is my favorite person in the DC universe, and DC is way cooler than Marvel. I also like video games, and especially old video games. I have a ps3, an xbox 360, a wii, a super nintendo, a 64... and the SNES is still my favorite. I use big psychology words just to confuse people sometimes.

    However, I'm also in shape, do martial arts, go outside, and I'm a mommy. And I can be quite girly at times as well...  So... its not that bad... right?

    10 + Nerd all the way for me. In my spare time you'll find me hovering over medical books without taking time to go out and socialize.

    I like to think so but I'm forced to resist because of work and stuff. I'd say these days I'm a 6 or so. I love video games, comic books, and anime. Speed Racer is the best character of all time. And Marvel is so much better than DC. Although, Batman is borderline idol.

    Yeah, and I like it! Being a nerd in this day and age is awesome. All the technology, all the information sources, all the connectivity, the groups, the forums!!!!! *gasps* the internet is nerd heaven big_smile

    I guess I'm a 6. I use regular bedsheets and have a girlfriend.

    In general aspects, no. To be a nerd usually you have to be an overall genius; However, by the stigma given by my culture-Yes.

    I love comicbooks/movies/anime/manga & games-rpg mmorpg tabletop & rp, I like to read to the point that I've researched several topics. I enjoy going to college and I wear glasses even though usually its sunglasses (I misplace them as well).
