And proud of it
Oct. 16th, 2008 03:55 pmYour result for The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test...
Pure Nerd
78 % Nerd, 39% Geek, 35% 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 have to say, they didn't have enough questions on the test for me to stress how really geeky I ultimately am. Find me another nerd who spends as much time on a specialized subject as I do research medieval logic during the day and medieval names during the evening.)
