What, I'm a nerd?
Pure Nerd
73% Nerd, 43% Geek, 21% 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. |
My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: | You scored higher than 83% on nerdiness | | You scored higher than 59% on geekosity | | You scored higher than 26% on dork points |

Patrick Ruffini has the September Straw Poll up. It's interesting in that it focuses on blog readers and bloggers.

Side Notes
Since I never seem to be able to time to post anymore, I've created the side notes section in the right bar. I'll be linking to things that I find interesting and maybe leaving a comment about it.

Donate to Katrina Relief
I know I missed the blogathon yesterday, but I thought I'd make my two recommendations for donations for hurricane relief funds.
