Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted November 2, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted November 2, 2019 I was on here once and went the loo and I left wee Kaiden playing with his toys on the floor, when I got back and looked at my laptop I shite myself, all I could see was... ZXRtbj7890--=+Cat,...?/{[[[ I worked it out in the end after a couple of minutes and looking at Kaiden with a cat's grin on his face, he had managed to get into my Google Chrome zoom settings and set the bloody words on something like 200+.

Bluewolf Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Do we really consider posting on a footy forum as being a bit nerdy??? I could understand that a bit more if this was a Dungeon & Dragons games forum.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluewolf Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 1 hour ago, nudge said: Only if you also post in comics & sci-fi threads Sci-Fi is covered under the Nerd definition A nerd is a person seen as overly intellectual, obsessive, introverted or lacking social skills. Such a person may spend inordinate amounts of time on unpopular, little known, or non-mainstream activities, which are generally either highly technical, abstract, or relating to topics of science fiction or fantasy, to the exclusion of more mainstream activities. Additionally, many so-called nerds are described as being shy, quirky, pedantic, and unattractive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted November 3, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted November 3, 2019 I don't use the site as much on my phone which is probably why I never get asked what I am doing and that leads to not even having to bring it up in conversation. Most things happen on my laptop or the desktop and the only time I am ever on those is when I am working. I do ask people for suggestions on what to do with running Sheep but that's only because we have such a huge group of board-game-playing folks that sometimes they come up with really good ideas.

Inverted Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 I post on a history forum, a strategy game publisher's forum, and this. My family know vaguely that I post and read on discussion-type websites, but I've been sure to stop anyone with web access knowing any specifics which could lead to them finding me.

Lucas Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 No one knows but to be frank, I wouldn't care if they did. My GF once asked me what I was doing when I was reading something on here and I just said I was looking on Grindr. She's never asked again.

This is me. My Mums the only one nosy enough to ask what I've been doing for the last 10 minutes when I'm furiously tapping away, probably hoping that I'm messaging a new girlfriend when in actual fact I'm bashing out a six paragraph essay about VAR.

Guest Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 My brother knew when I posted on TFF. One time I was posting on Storts forum and he oversaw me and said "Total Football Forums". I explained that I got banned from there and he laughed asking "what did you do?" I just told him I spammed and advertised. Nobody must bring up the real past Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 I have to admit I do feel slightly embarrassed at the thought of people I know in real life reading what I write online.... There's sometimes a comfort in the relative anonymity of the internet that brings a level of honesty you may even hold back from people you know in real life. Like when my wife asked me "why have you been replying to peoples comments on climate change articles on Facebook?" and part of me clenched up in shame. I don't really get why but there you go.
