All Roads Lead to Nerdfighteria

Although I'm the oldest one on this blog, I'm willing to bet I'm the newest to Nerdfighteria.  I actually only discovered this wonderful community about a month ago, luckily just in time to jump into Your Pants and find the thread which led to the creation of this blog.

It started, as many things do, with Twitter.  Neil Gaiman posted a picture of himself on the TARDIS with Charlie McDonnell, which of course led me to Charlie's YouTube channel, which was when I first realized that there was more to YouTube than music videos and kids biting each other's fingers.  This led into a spiral of ever more and more YouTube subscriptions, finally culminating with the vlogbrothers at the beginning of February.

I'm really not sure how it took me this long to find this wonderful thing.  I've been a nerd my whole life.  When I was three I was jealous that my brother got to go to school and LEARN THINGS and I had to wait two whole years before I got to go.  Oh, the misery.  Anyway, pretty much as soon as I saw the "How to be a Nerdfighter Video" I knew that Nerdfighteria was definitely for me.  Especially when I discovered the obsession with putting things on your head.  I am pretty notorious amongst my friends for putting anything and everything on my head on a regular basis.

I guess that's all there is to my story, actually.  I'm still in the process of exploring vlogbrothers videos and getting caught up on all the in-jokes.  Everything is all new and exciting and I hope it stays this lovely forever.

[Unrelated side note: The power cord for my laptop died yesterday and I'm currently at the mercy of the availability of campus computers.  If I'm a little flaky on reading/commenting on your posts or responding to anything that might come up on the YP group, that's why.  Things should be back to normal in about a week!]
