Geekiest thing I do that astounds my husband - being able to reach back into my memories as a child and recognize comic book characters/storylines from the first 5 seconds of a movie promo.

For the kids, reciting the Star Wars (IV-IV) dialogue along with the movies.

Programmed Mineswipper in a Casio 9800 when it first came, back in ... 1993? copying it manually to other people so they could also enjoy with this game.

Had to adapt it also to other models.

Oh man. On the day the first Lord of the Rings movie came out, midnight showing, I was on a blind date. Great looking girl but kinda prissy. Well I brought up the movie to her to feel her out, see if I can spot her inner nerd and catch the show...no dice "kids movie" she said. The date was going very well and I was invited in to "watch some tv". The signals were definately there. This was around 10:30pm. I had friends in line texting me that they had an extra ticket. I suddenly had a bad case of the Hershey squirts (wink wink) and had to leave the date. Good part-the movie was AWESOME! Bad part-she drove by the theatre and caught me in line. A geeks gotta do what a geeks gotta do.

My favorite was telling my totally geeky sister about Dr. Who. I was shocked that she had never heard of him since she is such a sy/fy fan and I will always remember her face after watching her first show. She looked like she had just found the "Holy Grail"! The very best part? We're not younglings. She's my oldest sister and I'm in my latish forties! I'm glad I could show her a quality show since she started with "Lost in Space". Ha!

Guy @ work asks me what kind of PC to get... he is upgrading from windows 98... in 2009...! Anyways, I tell him to check reviews on line... I built mine, I don't rly do prebuilt PC's... He's like what? I'm like ya, you can build them now..lol.. and then I tell him, ya and mine is liquid cooled so it runs faster, kinda like the radiator setup in your car... His eyes get really big... and he says "your kidding me!?"

My favorite geeky moment has to be attending the first Star Wars Celebration in Denver in 1999, the month before Episode 1: The Phantom Menace came out. It was the first new SW movie in 16 years, so we didn't mind standing in line in a downpour getting utterly soaked, with our shoes and jeans caked in mud, completely ruining our clothes. STAR WARS WAS BACK! That's all that mattered... (and I've been to every Star Wars Celebration ever since--and even brought my Taun-Taun sleeping bag to the last one!)

I don't get bored playing old school Nintendo games especially the Ninja Gaiden series. The sound tracks from Ninja Gaiden 1 are awesome. I even have them in my phone as ringtones.

My favorite is when my then 2 year old daughter starting flipping through some old Wizard magazines I had laying around. She came across a picture of the Superhero Squad toys and instantly became obsessed with "baby Spiderman" as she called him. She's been a little geek ever since

I was having a serious conversation with a coworker about Steve Jobs' accomplishments, strengths, weaknesses, humanity, etc. just after his passing, when I looked around and saw our other coworkers looking at us like "really... really?"

I would have to say my geekiest moment was during Halloween when I was in middle school, I dressed up as a Star Trek fan: I was wearing a blue long sleeve shirt, for the Star Trek symbol on the shirt I took the base of one of the old Star Trek: The Next Geneneration action figures and taped it to the shirt, I had an original series tricorder toy I wore on my shoulder, then I was wearing a hat with the Original Series 'Star Trek' words on it.

Another one of note from the same timeframe was my buddies and I making a Star Trek 'movie' which was about 3-4 minutes long using a friend's garage and ship models to show space battles. Makes me laugh looking back at it now.

Not sure if it is geeky enough, but fighting Mike Tyson in Mike Tyson's Punch Out on a big screen at a big family party with everyone watching. I lost. I was like Fred Savage's kid brother in 'The Wizard'.
