A group of four-six 17 year olds, once a week, learn how to fight with latex swords at "Weapons training". They have spent money on crossbows/ latex swords/ chainmail / and shields etc..
The same group of 17 year olds plan to go to a "Live Role Play" in the summer for four days.
In this "Live Role Play" they roleplay as dwarves/swordsman etc.. in a big open field with woods and lots of empty space with some other people who are also roleplaying. They camp out during these four days and don't get much sleep because other people roleplaying come and hit them with their latex swords. Everyone looks ridiculous in their chainmail with their latex swords and just hit people. One person will be prancing around "healing" people who have been hit with latex swords and are lying on the floor counting to 30, pretending to be dead.
Then at the end, all the ridiculous looking people in chainmail with latex swords meet and hit each other with latex swords. Oh and fire crossbows at each other.
So is that geeky or not? I thought it was, but apparently according to them it isn't. After all they apparently during these four days get "very" drunk.

Oh my... My brother, to my eternal shame, used to do this. It's at Chiselhurst, right? He used to dress up like a 'mage', and run around hitting Orcs over the head with his latex sword, shouting 'Quad, Quad, Treble'.
Yes, I would consider this the epitome of geekiness.

Very geeky. But it would be fun to go there with a baseball bat, beat them and then watch the "medic" prance around trying to revive them.
A real baseball bat that is, not that latex crap.

Whats wrong with revising. Some people can take in all information first time, I have to look at it again and again to get it. It's not exactly long of my whole life doing some revision. Only a few weeks.
I'll remember to throw a penny at you when I see you in the streets.

That's what I thought, but to be honest most of them aren't the drinking type people...

Geeks + Latex Swords + beer = Drunk Geeks with Latex Swords.
It's Nerdsville, however many bottles of Diamond White they steal from Lidl.
