Are You A Nerd, A Geek, Or A Dork?



Well, it's official. I'm a nerd. To be accurate, I'm 61% nerd, 35% dork, and 17% geek. By the way, that's not me in the picture above. That's just, well... another nerd. I took a test and this is what it said about me:

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 'nerd.' No-longer. Being smart isn't as socially crippling as it once was, and even more so as you get older.

Are you a nerd, a geek, or a dork? Yes, friends, there is a difference, and this test will ultimately, finally and conclusively answer that question in the eyes of God and man. Take the test.

Accurate - I cam up with being a Modern, cool nerd...

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)!

Cool!
