Nerd/Geek/Dork meme

[nolawitch58]

Modern, Cool Nerd 73 % Nerd, 60% Geek, 34% 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! Also, you might want to check out some of my other tests if you're interested in either of the following: Buffy the Vampire Slayer Professional Wrestling

My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 62% on nerdiness You scored higher than 99% on geekosity You scored higher than 43% on dork points

Oooh, this is great. I'm going to have to take this one.

(Which probably bumps up my geek score by a good 50%.)

These things are spamming your blogs with "free online dating" ALT-text.

Yeesh! If I can't edit the HTML, I might ditch the whole thing and simply show the results. I don't want to turn into a meme whore. Thanks for the heads-up. I never view with images off so I wouldn't have known about it otherwise.
