Are we nerds geeks etc etc.....
Now I've noticed people using this as an insult on us Comic book/versus forum inhabitants when things go sour for them.
I dare to prove them wrong.
Now a Geek , is usually a term for someone with a keen love of science , and a high level of knowledge* (such to a degree that they pull apart their pc's just to manually upgrade them)
Does anyone do that here , I have no problem here but does anyone at all . I thought not.
A nerd on the other hand is very close to us , but still different . A nerd is someone who usually buy's HEAVILY into SciFi , such as they know how to speak entire sentences in Klingon (Again i have no problem with this , hell i can say a word or two myself...damn Sky One adverts)
And what are we ? Before anyone asks
All we are , are a group of quasi savvy computer users (Quasi Savvy in the sense that we dint know how to use our computer to it's full potential , but can use it too pull of minor feats such as Sig making or AMV's) who have a keen interest in comics and their continuity.

*Not to say being Smart is a bad thing , I myself regularly spank a large group of women on a general knowledge quiz with relative ease....

I live in the same country as you remember I'm not like these American yahoo's who need two hundred Dollars to arrive in our country.....

And the first thing you should trust is an internet IQ test.

same could be said to those who use AIM, MSN messenger, ect.
Im not considered a geek or a nerd by others. Most people dont even know I read comics. So I guess Im a closest geek/nerd
(I always thought Nerds were just intelligent, but had no common sense, fashion sense....anything that wasnt in the books basically) Someone can however be intelligent and NOT a nerd......
