I'm such a geek, har har


I'm such a geek, and it amazes me sometimes how geeky I act. I've always been kn
own to be quite an odd person. I do weird things, and that's just how I am.

You may ask, "A geek? But you're not a dork?
A dweeb? A nerd? What's the difference anyways?"

Here's the answer:




I'm not a dweeb nor a dork because I've no problems interacting with other people. In fact, I can honestly say that I am quite the charmer. HA HA HA. That was hard to write. But seriously, I'm not socially inept. Shy at times, yes; but definitely not socially inept. So that takes dweeb and dork out of my choices, leaving "geek" as my only choice. (Though I have to admit, I can be such a nerd sometimes. I’m a little bit intelligent, a little bit socially inept and a little bit obsessed, so am I a bit of a nerd, or a bit of a dweeby dorky geek, or dweeby geeky dork, or dorky geeky dweeb, or dorky dweeby geek, or geeky dweeby dork, or geeky dorky dweeb? I'm not sure. Ha ha ha)

The thing is, it’s actually become “cool” to be a geek –before, “geek” used to be a derogatory term, the geeks have really managed to reclaim it. In reality, geeks are EVERYWHERE. I love hanging out with geeks, because not only are they fun – I’m always learning something new from them! Where nerds can be more generic, a lot of geeks are almost like …. specialists. However, “nerd” is still seen as a derogatory thing, and I think a lot of people tend to be closeted nerds. You just don’t see the proud declarations of nerdness that you do from the geek crowd.
