F***...I scored 9 and a half.
3. I am, according to the medical definition, obese.
Borderline counts yeah?
4. On an average day more of my human interaction happens on message boards or in blog comments than with actual other people.
I blame my job for that

Unless a mod locks the thread before I can get in of course.

7. I commonly use very specific technical jargon without considering whether or not the person I'm talking to understands it.

9. I have made a member of the opposite sex sit and watch me play video games for an hour or more.

There is a lot of grey area though. I have always perceived Star Trek as a nerdy series, where as Star Wars felt geeky. But I can never figure out why I get that feeling

Too bad I didn't get to be this guy:

That Star Saber suit rocks!
hrmmm, 5 and a half.
The half being that my degree is technically for Communications, but it was for digital media, which is more I.T.
I got 7... but do I get an extra point for thinking that the quiz could be rewritten as a form so people don't have to count manually. :o

9.5 points for me.
The 0.5 comes from:
34. I've read all of the greatest novels ever published, all of which happen to be graphic novels.
Umm... does this question mean that I only ever read comic books or just that I happen to read a lot of comic books? I'm the latter... I wasn't sure how to score myself on this one so I just gave myself half a point. ;)
The fact that I've put way too much thought into this question should earn me a bonus point though. :p
only a two for me.
lol 4.5
9. I have made a member of the opposite sex sit and watch me play video games for an hour or more. (she plays mor ethen I do)
11. Almost all of my jokes are actually just catchphrases or references to The Simpsons, Family Guy, Borat, or any other popular comedic film or show.
13. I live or have lived for an extended period completely nocturnally, sitting at my computer all night and sleeping all day.
14. I generally do not leave my home if it's not necessary for work or food retrieval.(this is the half point. I do this. but I also go out every so often if i don't have to.)
