You know you're a nerd/geek/dork/social outcast when:
(Feel free to add)

1. You start threads like this.
2. You spend over an hour arguing about which sci-fi show would win.
3. That hour+ begins at midnight local time.
4. You genuinely care who wins.
5. You spend more thought on that than on the politcal threads.

6:You can only resist the urge to quote reams of sources why your chosen side should win because you're too tired to type.
7: You wish an eternity of pain for all who disagree.
8:You rubbish each and every other opinion because it is blasphemous unless it corresponds to your own.
9: You submit more of these.
10: Just to reach the tenth one.
