Most Nerdy Hobbies in the World

Dorkstorm: The Annihilation
The ten geekiest hobbies
By Seanbaby

You can tell a lot about a person from the hobbies they choose, especially if it requires them to be tied to a bathtub full of hot dogs with a panel of judges and a proctologist with a tape measure watching. But enough about coin collecting. Weâ??ve contacted renowned experts on geeks, as well as many actual geeks, to compile this list of the dorkiest things you can do with your time. Each activity will be ranked on both how badly it humiliates the participant and how negatively it affects his or her sex life. These are not rough estimates. These are scientific facts based on the research done by captive supergeniuses working in controlled conditions with test mice and test mice dressed like tiny wizards.

10. Comic Books
Public Humiliation: 49.5%
Our studies show that comic book geeks are normally solitary, but engage in very noisy arguments when gathered in numbers. These are usually based on the most recent superhero movie, and how much it sucked. This sucking is always measured in direct relation to the number of continuity problems between it and an issue of The Incredible Hulk, which to be honest, had some problems of its own like the Abrams tank with the completely wrong size smoothbore turret and the Hulkâ??s hair just all of a sudden being parted the other way! Safety Tip: If your comic book geek isnâ??t loudly complaining about something, check carefully â?? you might have blacked out and killed it.

Damage to Sex Life: 68.7%
When youâ??re finished showing someone your chart of all the ways Magnetoâ??s hat in X-Men 2 was incorrect, itâ??s going to be a long, uphill battle to then have sex with them. And to make matters worse, the faulty shape of the dong port in the movieâ??s version of Magnetoâ??s hat will make having sex with it even harder.

Distinguishing Characteristics: Comic book geeks wear a uniform of a faded Green Lantern t-shirt and a confrontationally unkempt appearance.

9. Role Playing Games
Public Humiliation: 63.4%
Dungeons and Dragons combines the nerdiness of a fantasy setting with the fruitiness of improvisational theatre, and as if that werenâ??t enough for them to deal with, the rest of us think these people are going to go crazy and kill us. Itâ??s really hard for society to do more to tell you that if you play this game, youâ??re on your own.

Damage to Sex Life: 78.0%
We werenâ??t exactly sure on this figure, since a 78% means that thereâ??s still a 22% chance of a woman walking by role players and one of them saying, â??A minotaur? Here in the Dungeon of Kajmar!? Very well, I swing my axe of axing at th- why hello there, pretty lady. My nameâ??s Twinkleberry, The Spritish Pegasus. Why, as a matter of fact I AM single.â?

ahh, so THAT's the meaning of life.

- Negating as much public humiliation as possible.
- Having as much sex as possible.

hangon... where does that leave sex in public?

[Beowulf]

depends on whose having it.

Since I only qualify for one of the items, I feel much better about myself.

Given the fact that two of the items mention D&D, this thread would not be complete without references to the two pieces of multimedia that epitomize its nerdiness. Both can be found at the following site:

Download and enjoy the files dungeons-and-dragons-part2.mp3 (6 MB) and summonergeeks.exe (15 MB).

If you are not familiar with them, the audio was produced by a comic troupe called the Dead Alewives, and the Summoner Geeks video is described here:

Am I the only one that finds it amusing that Lobber post something discussing something he lacks entirely?

[TheCops]

hey,
that thing left out "debating politics on an internet BB" when the author would better serve humanity and their political perspective actually hitting the streets instead of sitting in their boxer shorts.

[Instig8]

Am I the only one that finds it amusing that Lobber post something discussing something he lacks entirely?

Yeah, he needs more public humiliation.

Btw, I wouldn't classify probably half of those as hobbies. Obsessions, yes. Hobbies, no.

[JMEaT]

Bwhaha

[Sirius]

Point Instig8. Being a furry isn't a hobby, it's something much, much worse.

Internet forum politics debates aren't really nerdy... at least not usually. Usually, they're about as nerdy as a 15-year-old struggling to use Hotmail.

[JMEaT]

I must also add that I was relieved to see "Building glowing PCs" was not on that list there.

[Sirius]

Hehe... I suppose that's no worse than being a ricer.

I mean, it -is- kinda geeky, but it doesn't make people want to avoid you.

[roid]

something is nerdy until a lot of ppl do it, then it's social.

yeah, just look at ricers. you'd think it was popular or something hey. but when you think about it, it's pretty weird.

[Lobber]

What's a ricer?

[roid]

ask uncle google

[Mr. Perfect]
