Shamelessly stolen from David. Simply put, I'm an unsatisfying mix of all three (Geek, Nerd and Dork), the least desirable of which is the Dork, and I have that in spades apparently. Now, he possesses a more desirable proportion of Geek and Nerd traits. And not too dorky, which is a good thing. But me? Oy! Maybe I'll go stab myself in the eye with my mechanical pencil. If I can remember where I left my pocket protector. . . .
Modern, Cool Nerd
73 % Nerd, 52% Geek, 47% 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)!
