Via nefas, the You are Such a Dork Chain Letter “Meme” Thing:
List 5 reasons you are a dork. And make them good reasons. Justify them. Explain them. Be loud and proud of how big a dork you are! Then pick the 5 biggest dorks you know and have them do the meme.
- My job title is “Senior Unix System Administrator”.
- I am a licensed amateur radio operator.
- My first career was rock critic and arts journalist.
- I went to work for AOL as an online “Guide” in 1991 because I was spending too much money playing their online D&D game and needed free access.
- I laugh out loud, geeksnorting, at the cleverly multilayered cultural references in Umberto Eco’s novels.
Hm, five biggest dorks I know? Competition here is stiff, so I’ll just kinda pick five of the people I know, almost all of whom are dorks of some type.

ok, what’s totally weird about this is my “5 reasons i am a dork” post was totally random, unsolicited, unmemed, just me feeling dorky. does this count as a plate o’ shrimp?? i wanted to track this meme back, but can’t due to locked entries. did i unknowingly start a meme?

Okay, I wasn’t addicted to NWN but I was addicted to a Chat Room (gaah shoot me now) and I didn’t have local access, so the 800# fees and the AOL Fees made for some big bills.
