Nerdiest Obsession: action figures

Wastes too much time on: mooning over men I can’t have (because they are the product of some writer’s imagination and don’t actually exist)

Favourite female nerd: Lisa Simpson/ Dr. Temperance Brennan (“Bones”)

Favourite male nerd: Rupert Giles “Buffy The Vampire Slayer”) /Dr. Neil Barnard

Secretly collects: words (from “antediluvian” to “zounds”) and their etymologies

Hates with a fiery passion: cruelty to animals/Britney and her clones

Nerdy line that makes you swoon: The world is quiet here.
