We are all nerds now - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

No problem, Thu, I'd forgotten about my dren query anyhow. Although, to reflect... I'm amazed that I didn't figure out 'dren' myself, being such a nerdy fan of word games.

And I've come to the conclusion that nerdity is in the eye of the beholder. Just this morning I had somebody tell me that my brother is "wicked cool". My brother is an active member here, also a member of a few G.I. Joe and other such forums. He's a Legend of Zelda enthusiest (as am I), he plays Magic (as I am soon to learn), and he writes comics books. He's also brilliant. To me, he's cool (not that I'd admit it to him), but he's also a big nerd (and truly proud to admit it). Like I said... nerdity is in the eye of the beholder.

PS- and Thu: my friends and I have our own names for people like drens. It's not nearly as nice.
