ST Jan 22 - 28, 2012: Nerd Badges

How do you express your geekery? Do you own obvious paraphernalia like a Horde-symbol bumper sticker, in-joke tshirts like the dps/ups pun, or less obviously related items like a gift from a guildie? Rather than physical indicators, do you mix nerd lingo into your everyday speech or talk/post about geekdom in non-nerd spaces? How do you advertise your nerd tendencies? Does it help you to attract new nerd friends?

Poasted!

I had to link to prior ST posts (War-Crafts and Music playlist), which some folks might have missed at the time.

With apologies to Akabeko, I totally derailed myself while brainstorming for this and went in a bit of a different direction. Thanks for the fantastic topic suggestion.

Thank you everyone for your wonderful responses! I loved reading about your different gear and the deeper ideas that followed.

Amerence · **Posted:** Thu Feb 02, 2012 8:18 pm

I love this idea, but unfortunately I have nothing to show off I did have a key chain before but i dont know what happen to it. my geekeness shows that I collected all the time cards and all the wow magazine. after the move its one of the boxes so its kinda hard to rearrange again but someday I will share this pics to you. Great post everyone! =)
