You know you are a Nutter if . . . Common Nutter traits

[TheEqualizer]

I really feel that even outside our common love of The Police and SC, us Nutters do have a lot in common. Anyone else notice this? So I thought it might be fun to compile a list of non-Police related traits shared by Nutters.

You might be a Nutter if:

* You are a fan of Star Wars and can quote lines from the movie

* Are in you mid-ish Thirties, look like you could be in your mid-ish thirties, or act/think like you are in your mid-ish thirties

* Are self employed

* Are a musician or a musician wanna be (RockBand addict)

* Are a big lover of pets and/or animals in general

* Like Harry Potter

* Have been known to enjoy a fine alcoholic beverage or nine

* Have red hair and glasses

* Like cheese

* Have a sharp sense of humor

* Watched The Young Ones growing up

* Fan of Kids in the Hall

* Probably more into technical aspects of writing like fonts and punctuation than most people

* Are extremely generous to friends

* Are above average regarding computer skills

* Prefer Mac over PC

* Has a LARGE amount of credit card debt right now

* Think that work is something you do when SC.net is running slow

What else?

Even if I have kind of started the Dictionary (I won't say, like His Awesomeness "I'll take all the credit" LOL)
I think that EM and all the nutters have made it great.
I think, though, that this should be a separate item, maybe to include in the Wiki or the 'Zine.

And we definitely credit EQ---send more definitions! You too, Maud!!

Oh good god I fit most of those criteria...

...no red hair, though.

[TOWOS]

Well, I don't like pets nor eat cheese...I'd say you're a Nutter if you meet at least 85% of the criteria...

Maybe we should put dem all together!

[Madgrad]

You've got to stretch the age a bit-- I think quite a few of us are over the 30ish range (even if we act like we're 16!)

[TOWOS]

That goes without saying. I'd say the average nutter is between 35 and.....infinite.

Can send a thread straight into the gutter in 3 posts

That's why I made a point to indicate that even if you aren't in your 30s, you either still look it or act like it. To me, all the Nutters I have met meet this criteria.
