hey wolf, we're geeks... not dorks. There's a difference. Some of us might be nerds, for all you IQ 18 people. And I bet we all have the case of the ex-girlfriend story. Remind me not to share mine...
And RPGs are some things to some people. In the pen and pencil variety, RPGs for me was basically an excuse to play grown up 'cops and robbers' with the guys, while the videogame variety was more... hmm... depends on the game. A lot of them tend to be games with very fixed storylines, in which case playing it tends to lead toward watching a movie, with more interaction on my part. The online type tends to lean more towards the 'pseudo-life' where I can ignore my own self and indulge in being a powerful wizard or crafty thief, in a world where my actions make a difference in some meaningful way, instead of my normal, everyday job where I work too much for too little money and affect nothing.
Ha ha... I would make jokes at Armisael's broadsword, but I'd rather save that for the girls
