    I also have to restrain myself from correcting people when they're wrong, and I know they are. It happens all the time. It's very difficult sometimes :o

    I spend a lot of time on a computer and am studying programming.

    Only computer game I play regularly is Nethack.

    I'm public relations officer of the Sci-Fi/Fantasy society in DCU (I didn't even intend to join it when the year began, honestly).

    I know 30 digits of pi.

    Used to be able to do a rubiks cube in under 90 seconds (not a great time compared to most who can do them though), think I'm probably a lot slower since I haven't done it in ages though.

    I fail miserably at conversation, particularly with girls (but also with guys).

    Probably tons more

    When I was a kid a genuinely hoped that I'd wake up one morning and pokemon would be real. And the scary thing is that if I started playing pokemon yellow now or saw an old episode those same feelings would come flooding back.

    I'm a reformed addict...but it wouldn't take much to push me over the edge.:o

    I'm a grammar nazi who will correct people without thinking. That usually comes across as quite a nerd-ish feature.

    But science has proven that someone's postcount is directly proportional to their penis size...

    There's no shame in that :D There's an idea.

    I'm going to buy a grammar book for the most inarticulate person I know. Christmas present. :D

    Play nice guys, the rules here apply to everyone. Now, I'd recommend you all go get some sleep, it's practically the middle of the night.

    I was just joking if that came across as me actually taking offence and insulting him.

    I forgot the most nerdy part of me:
    When I was in primary school, I was on the quiz team, and when I was in 5th class I won the quiz between the entire schhol :)
    But that's not it, in 6th class we had a pretty decent quiz team, good enough to win the all-Ireland quiz :)

    It was the Cadbury NPC quiz, so we won a trip to Birmingham out of it. That was class.

    I'm sorry to say that I was a bit embarassed by that for a while, but now I''m really proud of it. Plus my trophy is kick-ass :cool:

    I was like this too. Though I wouldn't be able to come anywhere near naming them all. Maybe slightly more than half :D.

    Seychelles flag is awesome btw. My favourite by a long way.

    The Kiribati flag is pretty cool too:

    Heh, I was in a quiz team in primary school too. When I was in 4th class we got to the national final of the Credit Union school's quiz. Unfortunately, as far as I remember, we came 2nd-last in that final. :o We won a good few trophies in other quizzes though.
    I love table quizzes but seldom get a chance to do them.
