Eh, it works in this case as a whimsical self-deprecating title. I would never call anyone else this term, but self-reference is alright IMO.

How does it work as self-deprecation? I don't see it making sense in the way that "I'm a Hugo nerd/geek/slobbering fanatic" would.

I think more in the sense of "I believe this is better regardless of objective reality". The others convey that you like or are into something, this conveys that you won't be swayed, so anyone reading further had better be ok with that.
