The most nerdly thing in your bedroom/home that you're willing to admit.

So, fellow nerds, what's the most nerdly thing in your bedroom or home?

For me, it's probably my bedding. Last time I was at the store looking for new sheets I saw these and couldn't resist.



That's right, I'm a 26-year old with Mario Kart bedsheets.

Edit: What really bums me out is I noticed Target now has Mario Kart DS bedsheets with a improved print/color scheme.

Good lord those look horrific.

Looking around i can't see anything that stands out as massively nerdy. I guess maybe the Star Wars IV poster on the wall next to the Family Guy Blue Harvest counterpart.

32" tv in my room I guess. I'm something of a repressed nerd :/

Edit: got it! My HD-PVR - the £170 object I bought to record my PS3 gameplay in HD.

i am embarrased about nothing

i am also an adult with good taste, so my room doesn't look like a child's room

i do have a bookshelf with tons of books and graphic novels on it - which is admittedly nerdy

Whenever we walk into a comic book store, my friend and I play a game to find the action figure or mini statue that would be the most embarrassing thing to have a girl see when you bring her home. Usually, the winner is some anime statue of scantily clad jailbait with extremely detailed and proudly displayed underwear, often in combination with some kind of rape-fantasy pose that would probably entice any prospective bedmate to make an excuse to leave and then etch a primitive hobo code on your doorstep so other women would never make the same mistake again.

You win that game forever.

OP, that is quite weird. I think you're a little bit passed the age for mario kart bed sheets. It is awesome though.

There's nothing in my room.

Those sheets are terrible, haha. It goes beyond being nerdy.

As for me, I don't really have much anymore. I have a Boba metal figure-thingy on my dresser, though. But that's just badass.

Wow. I swear there's always something weird about people with Mii's in their avatar.

As for me, there isn't much that gives away my "nerdiness" aside from the amount of games/movies I have, I think. I was thinking of getting a game cover framed recently, though (although it's mostly due to the art - I'd remove the logos and such).

I had a wall of Space Invader decals. Idaf, it was badass. I redid the room and now it's all mature and nature-y :/

My PS2 and my copy of Warship Gunner 2.
If anyone sees me play that game they think I'm the biggest fucking nerd. I like it though :(

My house is full of nerdy crap because both me and my wife like it.

So yeah I cannot decide between my ZOIDS, our Smurfs or various tuffed animals from videogames.

Yeah, don't think anyone will beat the OP.

I myself have 3 Animal Crossing plushies - K.K, Blathers and Nook. Not much other nerdy stuff in there other than my bookshelf.

It's filled with cords and video game consoles but my room is probably similar to a lot of other gaffers' rooms (Save for ClassyGAF. I can't match those folks). I think if anything that would make me look weird it's that I have 3 analog clocks hung up on my wall. I like clocks...

Although I do have the boob mouse pad and pillow case from Record of Agarest. I put them in a lockbox and stashed them in my closet with no plans to bring them out :|

Oh, I also have a "I was young, I needed the gold pieces" sticker on the bottom part of the frame of my TV.

I've got a poster of Wrath of the Lich King still hanging on my wall in my bedroom. I should probably get rid of it. And some dagger with the the grip forming a dragon head and wings i bought when i was on a trip in France.

Nothing compared to having Mario Kart bedsheets though. Wow.

Nerdiest thing? I've got a framed 20x30 print of the EU/Jap region cover of Ico.

Unless you count the Tenga Flip, which I bought because a nerd hero of mine reviewed it

A set of models of all the main cars from Initial D, and an extra 1:18 scale '86.

They're also the only nerdly thing in my boudoir apart from me.

Silly me thinking someone was going to top me in the first post, I guess.

My 8 arcade cabs. I have a dedicated 4 players NBA JAM:TE, Mortal Kombat, Killer Instinct, NeoGeo 4 slots, Virtua Tennis, Super Chase HQ, a bartop Mame cab that I built myself), and a pachislo slot machine.

Guys freak the fuck out when they go downtairs and feel like its 1995 all over again, women thinks its the geekiest shit EVER! I remember when I brought my girlfriend home for the first time, she was WTFFFFF.. She eventually became addicted and would play them for a while everytime she was around.

I wish it was something as cool or overt as Mario Kart bedsheets.

It's either my manga collection(which, I'd wager, is minuscule in comparison to many on GAF, only featuring a couple dozen books ), my collection of retro t-shirts - with stuff from Popeye to Sonic the Hedgehog to Coca Cola featuring on the designs - or my even smaller collection of professional wrestling BDs. Is it really necessary to pay extra to watch wrestling in HD? Arguably not, but here we find ourselves.

That sounds more badass if anything.
