From Jeremy (the one causing me to contemplate my adulthood):
So in other words, he's a closet-case. Not that this is a bad thing... it means that there IS some Geekery left in him, and not ALL hope is lost! And in a way, I guess *everybody* has a little closet geek in them, being hidden because of the current wave of Geekophobia. Maybe my Geekiness is why I feel such a kinship with the Homosexual crowd? Persecuted by the geekophobes simply because I flaunt my Nerdiness like they just WISH they could. I'm like the Richard Simmons of Geekdom! They see me being FLAMINGLY Geek and it reminds them of how repressed they have to be... but secretly they're tuning in to Battlestar Galactica every week. Oh, if the neighbors knew! And if your Pastor at Church were to discover that beneath your Sunday Best suit lies a pair of Spide-Man Underoos? THE SCANDAL!!!
I'm here. I'm Nerdy. Get used to it!
"Fear not, old friend, all is not lost. Only the environment has changed. I resist, daily, the lure of Warcraft and know that I will break soon. #1 reason I live where I live? Literally five minutes from Pike Place's Golden Age collectibles."
