10. I keep up with nukes, the nerds of the Navy, in conversations about Star Wars.

I am a fangirl of all of the following: Star Wars, Doctor Who, Firefly (and Dollhouse, and Doctor Horrible, and...basically I'm a Joss Whedon fangirl, okay), xkcd comics, Batman, Lord of the Rings, Dresden Files, Carl Sagan, The Big Bang Theory, and probably more that I'm not thinking of off the top of my head.

What makes YOU a geek?
