I always think of this article when someone calls me a nerd on these forums

PASSAIC, NJ—Scott Moreland, a walking database of sports facts and figures, scorned Tim Dansby, a walking database of science-fiction anecdotes and trivia, Monday afternoon.
Sci-fi geek Tim Dansby (right), the object of sports geek Scott Moreland's (left) mockery and derision.
"God, what a friggin' geek," said Moreland, eyeing Dansby in the food court of Willowbrook Mall. "Saturday nights, I bet he gets together with his other geek buddies and whacks off to Star Wars on video. He's probably never even gotten laid."
Moreland, a 27-year-old bachelor who spends most Saturday nights watching ESPN and checking for injury updates on CNNSI.com, then left the food court and headed to The Fan Zone, where he browsed a rack of extra-large New York Giants jerseys.
"Back in high school, there were a bunch of guys like that in my study hall. They'd spend the entire period talking about Alien Nation. I swear, they knew every line from every episode by heart," said Moreland, who can recite the batting average and on-base percentage of every member of the '86 Mets. "Who needs to memorize that kind of stuff? How useless is that?"
A self-described "sports fanatic" who experiences vicarious thrills through such idols as Mike Piazza and Tiki Barber, Moreland said he can't understand science-fiction fans' obsession with make-believe characters like Captain Kirk and Boba Fett.
I bought the entire set on BlueRay when it came out. The wife wasn't happy but I told her my inner Star Wars Geek took over and I could not physically walk by Star Wars on BR and not buy it. I had to. I'm glad I did too, because they look amazing on my digital projector. The boy and I are already planning an epic Star Wars marathon weekend once the snow flies.
Let's Rid3!!!!
That complete Bluray set is INCREDIBLE. When I am doing chores around the house or working from home I'll often fire up the special features discs and let the documentaries play. Still can't believe how great the originals look in that transfer, though I like others aren't thrilled with all the Special Edition changes (Jabba in A New Hope, the new dance number in Jedi etc.) for the most part I like what they have done with the updates.
The dance part in Return of the Jedi was so ridiculous. It's about the only addition from the 90s re-releases that I can criticize too much.
The Jobba scene was, at least, initially in the original script.
