Nerd Games Discussion Thread

I’d have a cozy space with little lights and I’d sneak in a sweet snuggly doggie (don’t tell on me! :wink:). I’m a fast reader, so lots of books!

And all of my nerdy friends would be here for adventures and crafting and canoeing, and swimming, and campfire chats, and for sharing s’mores and other yummy treats…

Omgoodness, now I want Nerd Summer Camp IRL.

Ok here’s my avatar. Hair is extra unruly these days because it’s growing back out from when I shaved it all off earlier this year. :upside_down_face:

It’s been a busy week so I haven’t had a chance to think about my bunk yet, but I did come upon one single photo from when I was a camp counselor! (I’m the one on the left and I believe we were just pretending to be some of our mopey, emo campers. I’m pretty sure this photo was taken with actual film, as I didn’t have a digital camera or any cell phone at all at that point.)

They didnt have any super curly hair and i just got a super curly perm, so i went with this.

My bunk. I’d bring my Kindle, a sketch book, cat, and my baby blanket!

Continuing to declutter around here, and I came upon this booklet which I still can’t let myself get rid of….

I mean, there’s so much good info in it!

The number of unnecessary quotation marks in that [twitches]…

I also like the instructions to speak to the separated campers quietly and calmly. I’m envisioning a counselor trying to mediate the situation while still talking like John Wayne :laughing:.

Hahaha right? Do kids these days (or even in the late 90’s/early 00’s) even know John Wayne? I guess either way, it would be a silly diversion.

I’ve got my avatar…

…but I’m too lazy busy with camp to put together a proper cabin vision board. Couch, books, blanket, craft supplies – bosh. Maybe a little TV I’ve snuck in so I can watch some Murder, She Wrote if I want (shhh).

You know we’d all find out and be camped out in your room watching episodes and eating popcorn together, right? :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Avatar!

Ok, camp means tents to me. So, tent, my stuffed bunny, lots of books, camera, hiking boots, swimsuit, and crafts.

Oh, I forgot my uke and songbooks!

100% this! As soon as I read Murder, She Wrote, I was ready to get the popcorn popping.

And, uh, yeah… you might need a bigger screen, too. Just sayin’. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

And @storerboughtcreation you’re bringing Cards Against Humanity, right? :wink:

Of course! Or maybe Kids Against Maturity. It’s similar but meant for teens… but still fun for adults, especially those of us with dirty minds :rofl:

Ooh, I’ve seen that one and it looks good! I also have “Ransom Notes” which is another take on this type of game only you get random words that you use to respond to the questions. Some of the results are quite hilarious. (Blurred coz these were kinda naughty. But funny…!)

Well, my cabin counselor seems on board with this plan, so I am less concerned with having to hide it now :laughing:.
