Ok this is going to be very very very embarrasing.
But when i was 8 or 9 years old after being turned down by a girl i said "you wont even go out with me if i give you this fry box" (Empty box of mcdonalds fries...)

I joined this forum! 
On a more serious note:
Back in junior high, me and two friends were going to have a presentation where we compared the Bible, the Torah and the Quran in a religion class. But since we didn't feel like standing in front of the whole class with some stupid transparencies and stottering out some sentences, we made a CD. We said everything we needed to say in a mic, added real radio-melodys and arranged it like a radio talk-show.
The teacher was so impressed after she heard it, that she played the CD for the principal, and later for all the other religion classes. Last I heard, she's still using our CD as part of her course-material.

It wasn't the geekiest thing ever but I was so close too doing it.
When asked by a beautiful girl to go for a beer. I was this [] close to turning her down to finish building my computer. Good thing I didn't she's tured out to be a very good girlfriend.

But my point from my first post was that I DIDNT PLAY IT! Making it 3 times as geeky to buy the books.

I don't consider myself a geek, but I have done several geeky things. I read and enjoyed both the Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings before they were popular. I have never actually bought any D and D stuff, but I like to browse through the manuals when I am at the bookstore. I am also an active member of these forums.

When playing D&D I figured that in case some of my equipment was lost/broken, I should bring backups. I was a Monk in this game, and our DM gave us some money so we could get started a bit quicker. So while the party was still in the first town, I got out and bought 4 torches, 150 feet of silk rope, 100 feet of hemp rope, two bows, one crossbow, 4 short swords, a few daggers, an assortment of arrows, a spear, two handaxes, a shield and a few other items (mostly in pairs)...
My DM lost his patience when the party camped in a forest and I set out to make myself four Quarterstaffs.

Listening to:
I took my super-electric wok on a plane to visit a girl for a weekend so I could use it to cook stir-fry's and curry's for her...
I'd count that as dorky rather than nerdy... and it worked btw

That drawing of a Mon Calamari I offered to a girl I liked rates pretty high on the geek scale.

Nah, I found them in my dad's book collection and thought they looked interesting, so I read them. They are ancient copies though, printed in the 60's and 70's and on the verge of falling apart.
