If I were a hot young girl and not a 300 pound guy I would expose myself for you.

Ah, what the hell, I’ll do it anyway.

I love the talk about the *nerd* stereotype, it’s so true that people think about kids sitting in their dark rooms playing D&D. Realistically, what you would consider a *nerd* has transformed dramatically in to all different shapes/sizes.

At my University it is not uncommon when you’re walking around the library to see people on their laptop playing WoW, Rune whatever, games on yahoo, Poker Stars, and many more that I don’t even know the name to, rather then studying! Or going to different parties and seeing computers in the main room loaded up with all sorts of different games/music/videos etc.

Imo, gaming is beginning to become a popular lifestyle, just look at Guitar Hero, Halo, and Nintendo Wii. Just those being mentioned, and you’ve already included millions of people who literally spend hours upon hours of free time playing their graphical drug of choice. Now stick MMO’s, FPS, RTS, RPG, and you’ve now included different generations, different nationalities, many different languages, almost every income level.

There is no one type of *nerd* anymore, you can find him/her in almost any public place.
