I could learn to live with that.

I often use the word "nerd" to refer any area of my interest that I embrace wholeheartedly, for example, that I named my dog Hyfrydol (Hyvvie), after a hymn tune because I'm a choir nerd. I know many other choristers, many of whom are professional musicians (which I certainly am not), but none of them would name their pets after hymn tunes. That sort of says it.

And for the Victorian Flirting thread, there's always "Post Aesthete."

Hyfrydol is a great name! Why have I never thought of that? Music nerd note: Rocky, have you heard "The World Beloved: A Bluegrass Mass" by Carol Barnett. Our community chorus performed it last night. Challenging...and interesting.

I thought that was part of the questioning to get onto this board.

I faked it once in a roomful of Trek fans.  I was just trying to be polite.

It's impossible to fake a nerdgasm. Normal people wouldn't have them, nerds would do them ironically.

I have not heard that. It sounds interesting, if naught else.[/b]Give it a listen. It's classier than it sounds.

That was me in college and grad school. I envy the folks who now have computers and no longer have to type 327 catalog cards per item.

Is it a mark of nerdiness to be proud of how many ingredients I can cram into a simple dish like mac 'n cheese?

This week's batch, apart from uh, cheese and pasta and the other customary ingredients contained:
Cayenne
Bitters
Worcestershire sauce
Parsley
Bacon
Green onion
Last week, I did a veggie version that had red onion and pickled hot pepper in it. Also, I use more than one type of cheese whenever possible. Single-cheese macs are for losers.

I like the way you cook. I have to do it boring for the kids...but for me, I always spice it up with whatever is around. Most of the time it doesn;t really make any sense.

Bitters definitely don't make sense. But once you shell out for the bottle, you're sort of obligated to put a few drops in everything you cook. It's how people like me who don't believe in higher powers can still confuse outsiders with quasi-mystic rituals.
