What Kind of Nerdfighter Are You?

Literature/Gaming/Theatre Nerdfighter

About Me:

Well, I've been stalking the Vlogbrothers on youtube ever since the phrase 'Nerdfighter' was only used in reference to a game John found at an airport.
I have taken on the ideas of fighting to decrease world suck and generally being made of awesome by creating a site with my sister that works in very much the same way as Brotherhood 2.0.

Overall, there's not that much to say. I've been dubbed 'nerdy' for almost all of my life, so it's never seemed like a bad thing. However, having said that, I love that there is now a community where my Shakespearean insults won't make a funny a whooshing sound as they glide over other peoples' heads ;)

I love to perform because it gives me a feeling of freedom and confidence I have never found anywhere else in life. I love to read because it gives me a chance to curl up inside my own head, so kind of feels like a watered-down version of the feeling I get when I perform. I love movies and can quote way too many lines from my favourites. I love to write incredibly bad poetry. I love vlogging and building connections with people via the internet because, some of the time, they actually feel more real than the people I fail to form connections with in real life.

Enough said.

Favorite Books, Movies, Music, and more

BOOKS:
Love Sherlock Holmes.
Love anything by Oscar Wilde.
Love Harry Potter.
Love Artemis Fowl.
Love Montmorency.
Love Wuthering Heights.
Love The Iliad.
Love The Aeneid.
Love In Cold Blood.
Love John Green...and his books :P
...I could go on forever...

MOVIES:
If is has Kevin Spacey, Kenneth Branagh, Emma Thompson, Hugh Laurie, Ralph Fiennes or any of the huge number of people I think are fabulous, the chances are, I have it DVD and I probably know a lot of the script...

MUSIC:
Lots of youtubians [is that even a thing?] such as Julia Nunes, Tom Milsom, Alex Day and, of course, Hank Green.
Frank Turner is one of my favourites at the moment.
The Mountain Goats are pretty high up my list. I blame John's video where he used 'Love, Love, Love' as a backing track.

What's your favorite thing to put on your head?

Argyle socks.

If you could do your happy dance with anyone who would it be with?

Stephen Fry...a close second choice would be Tom Milsom or possibly Frank Turner...
