As I usually say before I post a random meme, I wouldn’t normally do this kind of thing. But I couldn’t resist posting this, although I’d’ve preferred a little more geek and a little less nerd. Those definitions sound reasonable too.
Modern, Cool Nerd 65 % Nerd, 52% Geek, 26% Dork |
For The Record:
A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia. 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!
