| | So due to an all night gaming session last night my sleep schedule is all out of whack and I can't sleep and so here I am updating for some reason, well a good reason, well mainly I just can't sleep and I am hoping this will put me to sleep. So I came across this quiz just now that determines whether you are a geek, dork, or nerd and just had to take it. Of course I have always been a self-proclaimed nerd, but at the same time I have been working my way into geek status and so I was interested to see if I had officially made it yet. So I took the quiz and here were my results:
Modern, Cool Nerd
65 % Nerd, 73% Geek, 13% 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!
That's freakin' hilarious. Even worse I have been using the 'geek is chic' slogan for the past few months know honestly believing it. That could be a whole post in itself, but essentially I found this quite funny and true and had to write abut it. In other news I went with Lindsey to her sorority's date party and that was a blast. Check out my facebook profile for pictures from that. It was a good time, it was a themed party and the theme was 1920's and so we rented costumes from a place, and I seriously wish I could have purchased the suit I rented, it was fantastic. Anyways thank you Lindsey for everything about that night, it was a magical evening and most of that magic came from you. Right that is all I am going to try and go to sleep now............
