Since you are both so advanced in English, can you tell me an AFFECTIONATE German term for "nerdy." Obviously the English word can be used either affectionately or as a jibe, depending on the context.
A Tig party is the most awesome way of staying in contact with virtual friends who knew each other for about 8 to 9 years. It's probably nothing big for someone who just joined, but it's always been there for some of us. For years. That's a Tig Party.
Uh, actually, I think people would use the word "nerdy" since there's not much of a German replacement for it. Computer geeks are known as "nerds" (also in the affectionate way), nerds in school are sometimes called "Streber" (jibe).

I apparently forgot what it was like to enjoy idle conversation in pointless threads :< I used to post on everything, be it something I knew about or not.
Just thought about this watching a certain user create more threads on a weekly basis D:
"In the year of our Lord 1314, patriots of Scotland, starving and outnumbered, charged the fields at Bannockburn. They fought like warrior poets. They fought like Scotsmen. And won their freedom."
International 2nd breakfast got me to pick up The Hobbit book again and start reading it. I cannot believe the bookmark that I used last time I read it was still there, a library card that expired in 2004, awesome.
