I just got into fantasy thus year but I'm a pretty big baseball fan, especially historical baseball
Baseball "fan" doesn't cover it, sir. I've watched the Ken Burns documentary on the history of it so many times that I can recite parts from memory and my favorite ball park of all time is one that doesn't even exist anymore.
Fedding WoW Video consoles Fantasy sports Civil War buff Al Capone buff Supernatural fan The Voice fan Ghost Whisperer fan Countless cooking shows Etc etc
How does the Voice get in there with all that other stuff? Do you DVR it by mistake?
I'm watching it now. LOL

It's a compulsion. - Indiana Jones - Buffy/Angel (to a lesser extent) - World of Warcraft (recovering addict, if you can ever recover from that drug) - Supernatural - Once Upon A Time - Firefly/Serenity - Musicals (probably coincides with Theatre but meh) - English Lit geek - Jim Henson (includes Dark Crystal and Labyrinth of course) - Harry Potter - DC FTW.

The "big eagle" WWF Championship from the Attitude Era (with extra "Property of WWF" plate.) This isn't a pic of mine, but it's the same thing;
The WCW United States Heavyweight Championship. Again, not a pic of my actual belt;
Finally, two different versions of the ECW belt. There's the black globe Taz version;
I also have the one which I bought from R! (that's the handler of UGWC Hall of Fame inductee Raenius, for you people who might not know the dude OOC.) This one is a regular blue globe version;
Interestingly, like the one in the pic, this belt still says TAZ on the crossed barbed wire baseball bats, on both sides of the center plate. This is because it was molded from the "black globe" version but painted to be the blue globe version, from after they were bought out. My black globe belt is original ECW merchandise, though.
I also own probably twenty action figures, which I will bore everyone by attempting to list, from memory;
Rob Van Dam Sabu Bray Wyatt Luke Harper and Erick Rowan (that's a two-pack) "Mr. Perfect" Curt Hennig (he destroyed the 4 Horsemen, and shall forever have my esteem) Dave "Fit" Finlay The Undertaker Brock Lesnar Roman Reigns Seth Rollins Dean Ambrose Big E Brodus Clay (the figure has a big toothy grin and I find it hilarious. Fuck you for judging me) Kane (masked, "I'm the Tag Team Champions" vintage) Daniel Bryan (with big ol' beard) Tommy Dreamer Kofi Kingston Christian
I also own a LEGO Batmobile that I customized;
I've also got way more Deadpool merchandise than should be necessary for any single person.
I'm also flipping the fuck out about.....THIS:

Impressive. But I left a challenge for you regarding my RP this week. Chance to earn +3 nerd credit.

- E-fedding for 15-16 years off and on. Ran a little known fed called uCw. I used to do the mail in pay feds out of the old Pro Wrestling Illustrated.
- Used the above as teaching tool working as a TA in high school. Made them do what we call roleplays as weekly writing assignments, that ended up in results.
- Video games, (I've been blessed out n most languages for my warthog driving ability in Halo) Arcade fighting game tournaments. I'm kinda "good" at Soul Caliber. RPG's are my jam, my jelly, my peanut butter and so on. I'm addicted to the Fable franchise. - I've been watching Doctor Who since the 80's. Tom Baker was my first doctor. I even imported the radio broadcast when it went off the air here. - Sherlock, Torchwood, Red Dwarf, Count Duckula, Danger Mouse, Judge Dread, Almost Human ...You get the point.
- I write Lobo fan fiction. Some of which slipped into the hands of one writer Brad Metzer, who told me he was blown away by it, and I was wasting my time if I wasn't writing. - Star Wars... I Star Wars table top rp'ed for 3 years. I was banned at Barnes and Nobles Star Wars Trivia night around Charleston because we won everything... everything. It got to the point a friend followed us playing Goldberg's theme song as we walked in like the fucking nerds we were... are. - I rented out "Pirates of the Caribbean" at Disneyworld, at midnight, during the Pirates celebration, here pirates took over Disneyworld to ask my wife to marry me. - Tolkien... I own the official replica of The Witch King's bastard sword. Among many others... I like weapons. - I used to Medieval LARP, I was suspended for being an asshole in a "pub brawl" event. (sit around a table drinking grog, insulting one another till they give the go and a brawl breaks loose. I flipped the table at "go" stomped on it, trapping one guy under it supposedly breaking a rib or bruising it. I was also informed my lack of wearing underwear under my kilt was authentic, but unfavorable. I never went back. I had already been called down for headbuts and biting, and once delivering a Stone Cold stunner to a jester who insulted my king. - I was in Drama in high school, I quit after my idea of Dracula was beat out by ...Showboat. - Writing - When I moved to Louisiana, I became an officially licensed paranormal investigator with Louisiana SPIRITS, and was a member of TAPS. - Indiana Jones is my idol and my reason for getting into history along side Goonies... fuck Nick Cage and National Treasure - Buffy, Angel, Stargate, X-Files, Supernatural, Grimm, Poltergeist The Legacy, Kojak The Night Stalker, Tales From The Crypt.... - World of Warcraft recovering addict... we actually timed it. My son was probably conceived on server update night. - I like Star trek... I like Star Wars more, but I still like Star trek. Fuck Deep Space 9 though. - Table Top RPG's Mostly D&D, Heroclix, MechWars, Warcraft. - Firefly/Serenity I have the plans for a Vera prop replica when I have the time. - I used to write poetry and songs for Britt while we were dating, and delivered them written on parchment and rolled up, tied with a ribbon. - I introduced my wife to most of her current fandoms. - Jim Henson is my religion. - I was introduced to Harry Potter by my wife... but instantly got hooked and actually rp'ed in this verse between e-feds. - Dc comics, all the way. I'm a Green Lantern fanatic... Wovqu' jajDI', (In brightest day,) qIjqu' ramDI', (In blackest night,) Dagh mIgh nargh puSwIj.

If you don't know the language the oath was in.. step down from my geekdom. - I first introduced Wayne to Deadpool while he was in the Air Force... it wasn't until later he got into him. He was a Punisher fan before that.
- I dated a Troma girl who was introduced to me by Lloyd Kaufman himself. While penning a script for him called "Dracula Vs Elvis" it was trashed and sent to the pooper after the release of similar product. Bubba Hotep.
-I've written 7 failed turned down comic ideas for Marvel and Topcow.

As Danny drops the mic and then punts it out at the rest of us, letting it bonk over each of our heads, a familiar chant starts up:
Your geek is showing, dear.
And he's right. When Danny and I got together I was a "closet geek". Big into Star Wars, Tolkien, Harry Potter, and always been a Catwoman fan. Loved Jim Henson. He cultivated the rest and pulled me out of the closet with my fandoms. Fairly certain he also chopped down the door, used it for kindling and rented out the closet to a hobo (Dirge is that you?)

- When my son Cash was born and they handed him to me. I recited the speech by Jor-El to Superman. A male nurse knew it and was humming the superman theme while I did.
-My son's middle name "Morgan" is named after the handler of Raenius. Who's one of my closest friends, and would have been flat mates had I not met Brittany. I was already packing my shit to head to Ireland.
- As a kid I used to take apart my Gi Joes and put them back together with some paint to create my own, complete with back stories, origins, and factoids.
