NERD!

August 30, 2005

As is my habit, when I’m writerblocky, I do a quiz. I found this one via the lovely M’s LiveJournal. The results surprised me a bit…I thought I was more a geek than a nerd, with that online gaming thing I have going and all. (Sandriara’s now level 33!)

Pure Nerd
56 % Nerd, 39% 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, earning you the title of: Pure Nerd.

The times, they are a-changing. It used to be that being exceptionally
smart led to being unpopular, which would ultimately lead to picking up
all of the traits and tendences associated with the “dork.” No-longer.
Being smart isn’t as socially crippling as it once was, and even more
so as you get older: eventually being a Pure Nerd will likely be
replaced with the following label: Purely Successful.

Congratulations!

I was at work until 7:45 tonight and I still brought home stuff. End of the month and all.
