Nerd, Geek, or Dork?

Found at Peter Porcupine's:


Your Score: Modern, Cool Nerd


60 % Nerd, 73% Geek, 39% Dork




For The Record:

A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.

A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.

A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.


You scored better than half in Nerd and Geek, earning you the title of: Modern, Cool Nerd.



Nerds didn't use to be cool, but in the 90's that all changed. It used to be that, if you were a computer expert, you had to wear plaid or a pocket protector or suspenders or something that announced to the world that you couldn't quite fit in. Not anymore. Now, the intelligent and geeky have eked out for themselves a modicum of respect at the very least, and "geek is chic." The Modern, Cool Nerd is intelligent, knowledgable and always the person to call in a crisis (needing computer advice/an arcane bit of trivia knowledge). They are the one you want as your lifeline in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (or the one up there, winning the million bucks)!



Congratulations!

10 Mirror, mirror, on the wall - WHO'S the Nerdiest of all? Why - I am not a Cool Nerd - I am a PURE Nerd! Ogre - based on the usual traffic I see commenting, I'm not surprised your readers are nerds. May be a few dorks out there too - but nerds are your natual audience! >:~)

11 Yeah, we'll we're cooler than you are... lol But I'd have to say unintentionally, I guess my target audience is actually Nerds, anyway...
