if star trek fans are trekkies

[7th_Sephiroth]

does that make stargate fans gate-ies?

[politicaholic]

1. No, just geeks.

And it's unfortunate, because I'm a stargate fan too.

[7th_Sephiroth]

3. everybody has a level of geek-ta-tude

level 1-you watch regularly its a good distraction after a days worth of hard work

Level 2-you catch each episode, the plot and acting are good, and the stories are well written

Level 3- Level 2 plus You buy the season DVD's

Level 4-this is where the line starts to blur, your a level 3 plus you start pondering the effects of a zat gun on the cat

Level 5- you know the full name for the zat gun

Level 6-you cut an egyption design in your forehead and pour molten gold into it

Level 7-you have all the episode numbers memorised, and you can name off 100 quotes from each episode

Level 8-you show up to sci-fi con in a full replica of a Snake Head Guard

Level 9-you build a mock up stargate in your basement

Level 10-you build a working staff weapon

4. I always figured linguists had to be Star Gate (the movie) fans.

It's one of the few in which the linguist gets the girl.

[7th_Sephiroth]

5. well, there's also this guy named Kuni going around...

[Igel]

11. Kuni?

I'm sort of out of the sci-fi/science fiction/fantasy/role-playing/Magic loop since I left UCLA and it's club, Enigma, behind.

Google turns up at least one japanimation site, a radio station, and a pianist.... I'm lost.

[7th_Sephiroth]

17. Kuni is going around makin out with linguists

^_^ use your dirty, dirty mind

[zbdent]

7. Yes, but you have to be a linguist who is verry cunning . . .

hee hee hee . . .

15. And Hillbillies

16. I don't mind being a Trekkie.

I've never considered it a derrogatory term. And even non-sci-fi buffs know what you mean when you say "I'm a Trekkie."

[Placebo]

14. Does that mean 'Star Wars' fans...

are "warriors"? :shrug:
