Ah, what the heck.

BATMAN

Not Nerdy: Going to see The Dark Knight in theatres
Slightly Nerdy: Dressing up as the Joker for Halloween (Heath Ledger version)
Fairly Nerdy: Buying Batman comics other than Year One or The Dark Knight Returns
Nerdy: Dressing up as the Joker for Halloween (Cesar Romero version)
Really Nerdy: Writing Batman fan fiction
Dangerously Nerdy: Writing Batman fan fiction where he has sex with Alfred

Never bought a Batman comic, but read Emperor Joker in the bookstore before.

STAR WARS

Not Nerdy: Seeing the movies
Slightly Nerdy: Owning a toy lightsaber
Fairly Nerdy: Learning to play the Cantina Song on your musical instrument of choice
Nerdy: Knowing in which "expanded universe" novel Admiral Ackbar dies
Really Nerdy: Membership in a Stormtrooper fan brigade
Dangerously Nerdy: Defending the idea of Jar Jar Binks

Don't talk crap about Jar-Jar. Or Gungans. The only other one I hit though is seeing the movies. I wish I had a lightsaber, though. :(

HARRY POTTER

Not Nerdy: You read the books
Slightly Nerdy: You liked all of the books
Fairly Nerdy: You own a wand
Nerdy: You read fanfic that "fixes Rowling’s mistakes"
Really Nerdy: You are a fan of "wizard rock"
Dangerously Nerdy: You have an alternate "Hogwarts persona"

N/A, don't care for HP in the slightest.

MAGIC: THE GATHERING

Not Nerdy: "They still make that? I played it when I was in high school for a bit, but never got into it."
Slightly Nerdy: "Yeah, it was fun, but I couldn’t keep up with all the expansions so I sold my cards."
Fairly Nerdy: "Do you mind if I use a proxy for Nicol Bolas? I mean, he’s forty bucks"
Nerdy: "You haven’t really played this game until you play draft; it’s how the game is meant to be played."
Really Nerdy: "Okay, if we’re all supposed to be planeswalkers, how come there are planeswalker cards? Am I Ajani? I don’t feel like a lion-man."
Dangerously Nerdy: "I’ve tested this deck against all comers and now all I need is to win free airfare and I’m on my way to the World Championships in Tokyo."

N/A, don't care for Magic either.

H.P. LOVECRAFT

Not Nerdy: Recognizing the name "Cthulhu"
Slightly Nerdy: Knowing the proper pronunciation of "Cthulhu" (EDIT: k’too-loo, for those wondering)
Fairly Nerdy: Owning a Cthulhu plushie
Nerdy: Running a Call of Cthulhu campaign
Really Nerdy: Organizing a chapter of the Campus Crusade For Cthulhu
Dangerously Nerdy: Actually reading any of Lovecraft’s stories

Does having seen "The Collect Call of Cthulhu" episode of The Real Ghostbusters count for anything?

NERD TELEVISION

Not Nerdy: Lost
Slightly Nerdy: Buffy The Vampire Slayer
Fairly Nerdy: Battlestar Galactica
Nerdy: Stargate: Atlantis
Really Nerdy: Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog
Dangerously Nerdy: The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.

Never saw anything else on the list (And never heard of Brisco), but why is Dr. Horrible on there? It wasn't on television...

STAR TREK

Not Nerdy: The Next Generation
Slightly Nerdy: Deep Space Nine
Fairly Nerdy: the one where Picard rides a dune buggy
Nerdy: any of the novels
Really Nerdy: owning a phaser
Dangerously Nerdy: speaking fluent Klingon

I do want to see DS9. Only seen a few episodes, so I'm not counting it.

COMPUTER USE

Not Nerdy: Macs
Slightly Nerdy: Knowing how to use Windows rather than just knowing “how to do emails”
Fairly Nerdy: Knowing the actual reasons Windows sucks
Nerdy: Anything to do with Linux
Really Nerdy: Getting all of the coding jokes in XKCD
Dangerously Nerdy: "I’m bringing BeOS back!"

I'm fairly good with XP. I don't cross into 1337 territory, but I know a good deal more than the average person. I guess I kinda bridge the gap, or something. Tried a Mac once, and hated using it. Never seen or used Linux.
