I see conversations like this on the forum all the time about Warhammer and other things and hear them in game stores regularly as well. Look at the "Thor and WH40K" thread and you'll see a perfect example. Now's a chance for people who engage in that sort of thing to hear what they sound like to other people. It ain't pretty, but it is humorous.Hear it at:Eric Shanks secretly recorded his coworkers discussing Battlestar Galactica. Then he animated it.
I don't know what's geekier: arguing about the superpowers of science fiction characters or animating an argument about the superpowers of science fiction characters.

Actually, the nerdiest conversation I've ever heard was an argument between a Java programmer and a software engineer over whether or not Java was merely the illegitimate, red-headed step child of C/C++.

Yeah, but if you argue about those made up stories you get to be called a Theologian. We just get stuck with an unfortunate social label.

Arguing perceptions of truth, and the meaning of faith, as defined by books, be they the Bible, the Bhagavad Gita, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance or the Origin of Species. Originally Posted by Farseer Uthiliesh

Anything that ends up on FNIF tends to be pretty nerdy. And filled with vitriol.

Once at a college game club meeting "Vampires can't be Right Wing!!" I didn't hear the conversation properly but it was shouted across the room with such fervant belief, like she genuinly beleived they existed, and were followers of Marx or Engels to a creature.
More Necromunda please.
