When I was in the scouts we used to warden a fairly large camp site once a month. Every now and again this star wars role play group would turn up all in fancy dress, run around the woods, bang bang laser guns, kill droids and spin fake light sabers around. At the time it looked like fun, but I was 12, now I tend to think of them as the nerdiest group I have ever met.

Being that Klingon is the most spoken fictional language and the fact that inventing a language of fictional space aliens is geeky enough, I nominate being a threkky the most geekiest. Beam me up Mr. Scott. Captain on the bridge.

It was a tough call for me between D&D, or becoming a Trekky who learns Klingon. However, I had to go with the latter, because even people who play D&D don't generally go around learning languages for it. Not all Trekkies learn Klingong either though.

I love the star trek, but I never got around to learning Klingon. The Klingons just weren't as cool in my book as the Romulans. The Romulans in the last two movies, however, are a joke.

How old are you? You need to grow up. Cool is stupid. If the only way you can feel good about yourself is by mocking others than you are a loser.
