OK... you know those embarasing moments directly related to your geekness. I am at goth club.... and this girl who has been speaking to my friend gets up... she has a crown royal bag.... so naturally in a loud voice (over the music) i exclaim "cool... dice bag... you must game!" ... the look on her face tells me... 'umm no...i just thought it would be cool to use a crown royal bag as a purse...' ...feeling awful... i then went on to make it worse by trying to rally support from those around me that the ONLY use for a crown royal bag is to hold DICE!!!
....crud....

    dont sweat it, people make mistakes ;)
    But still, that was pretty awkward O.o
    You're not alone though, i feel awkward like that the morjority of the time at school, cause there are like no geeks (so it seems) besides like a few, and me :P So pretty much anythything coming out my mouth gets giggle responses, weird looks, or"ok..."
    LoL, i go around asking people, "have u huged your cow today?" or "ENGAGE!"
    Yu gotta love Star Trek ^^

    Yeah, don't sweat it. The best therapy is to submerge yourself in a massive geeky event. For me it was the midnight showing of Serenity. There were hundreds of brown coats, blue gloves, and wedding cake dresses. A friend of mine wore her Trogdor shirt and there were plenty of people gleefully shouting "Trogdor!" and "Burninator!" You can't feel bad about having a Crown Royal dice bag in that situ.

    Me I've got a hand carved, brass inlay, wooden box for my dice. I'm very attached to them. Geeky me.

    I believe SiliCon is coming up.
