You own all the Star Wars and Star Trek DVDs and maybe have some decorative items (posters, cut-outs, toys) here and there, you're not a geek. You're just a fan of the genre and that's AOK.

I disagree. If you have Star Trek decorative items (or simply the DVDs), then you are a geek. Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with being a geek. One of my best friends has a strong social life, a gf, and he does sports so his life is pretty normal in that aspect and everybody likes him. However, he is also a geek because he watches anime, collects posters with dragons, plays video games about 4 yours a day, and plays D & D. I think geek is kind of like what your interests are and what gets you excited. In fact, I consider myself a geek to an extent since I get overly excited about movies in general. But yeah, back to the point. People that are really into Sci Fi are geeks.

Well I agree that football sucks. But I thnk political discussions are more interesting and less pathetic than talking about your princess leah fantasies or wether Zergulathorpia is more igletogevian than Eminivianinikin's politotipacinana.

and yes we all know that football sucks, but on to a better topic!
why nerds rule so much?
is it because 1-we are better at alot of things?
2- we use big words to make people seem dumber?
3-every one knows that nerds are better at sex?
4-dilbert also rules?
5-because we will rise up and all shall bow before us MUHAHAHAHAHA!!!!?
5-OMFG THERES A GIRL IN MY HOUSE TIME TO BREAK OUT THE TAU!
6-5 just sucks as a answer?
7-i should shut up because your all sick of this topic?

Not all of us. Personally, I consider myself more of a nerd than a geek.

what ever its the same thing

alucard Don't know though some people seperate the nerds from the geeks but I'm glad that their are worst things to be than a geek- for example a trainspotter.

Well I don`t really care being labeled as a geek. The world only labels us like this because they got nothing else better to do. But I say lets not let this put us down, we should be proud of what we are and not let anyone say otherwise. 😠 😠 😠 😠 😠 😠 😠

Im a geek about the predator i know the society and origins
