Not really into Firefly because my tv rarely changes from the Investigation Discovery channel (which may be a level of geek-ness all its own) but I do know what a reaver is. Creepy. |

You might be a Geek if you snicker quietly when a friend announces proudly they just bought windows 7 and microsoft office!
You might be a Geek if your personal philosophy is,,never pay for anything you can get for free. And you are definitely a geek if you can simultaneously online play 6 hands of poker at 6 different tables while watching tv, im'ing your sig other, and read the recent TED article on your IPAD, while talking on your cell phone to your mom. You might be a geek if oyu can type a test message without ever taking your cell out of your pocket to look at the keys.

I am so proud of our general geographical area right now. Between you, Dean and myself (am I missing anyone?) we've got quite the mass geekery going on! Quote:

If you write more fanfiction then essays when classes are in session.
When you have nightmares involving basic. When you still have games you regularly play... on dos.

Geek vs Nerd
Geek:
1. A carnival performer often billed as a wild man whose act usually includes biting the head off a live chicken or snake. 2. A person often of an intelectual bent, who is disliked. 3. An enthusiast or expert especially in a technological field or activity <computer geek> Nerd: An unstylish, unattractive, or socially inept person especially One slavishly devoted to intellectual or academic pursuits <computer nerd> a person who behaves awkwardly around other people and usually has unstylish clothes, hair, etc. Notice that one can be either a computer "geek" or a computer "nerd"... I tend to believe I am a geek!

You might be a geek if you volunteer to present on heterosexual normative values that encourage homoerotic voyeurism in E.M. Forester's A Room With A View, and are truly excited about it!

From the definitions above - couldn't you be both? Geek has to do with your enthusiasm for a subject matter and Nerd has to due with how you deal with other people... Geeky Nerds? |
