By reading this topic, you're a geek. So face up to it, you are what you are. You may be a little bit of a geek, or a real big one, but bottom line is, its what we all are. Own up to it. You're on an online forum right now, when you could be playing some kind of sport or doing something "cool".

I don't know why people try do deny it. Because its something that all forums share in common. They're filled with geeks, all the time.

What I don't mean by Geek being antisocial or really weird.

Accept it. Its actually BETTER to be a geek. Why?

• More successful.
• More intellegent majority of the time, or they have an inspiration for knowledge, which is just as good.
• Control the big buisnesses, jobs, and corperations.

You might try to flame, POST IN CAPITAL LETTERS, deny it, or so on. Face it, it's what you are. Just by being on this site and reading this, makes you a geek.

This is just a little mini rant of mine. Discuss and voice your opinions please

I already knew I was. Nice little posting icon.

Did you see Tazzys name lol

Does it have a picture of himself?

No. His name's just red.

I figure if you play a game more hours then you play a sport or go to school, your a geek.
Play a game more hours then you go outside.... your obsessive.

i'm the first one. but with the sport option.

Can I be pink?!?!

I'm a geek.


I want that so bad

Theres a black one at ThinkGeek. Why the hell are you visiting the wrong online store?

geek
n. Slang
1.
1. A person regarded as foolish, inept, or clumsy.
2. A person who is single-minded or accomplished in scientific or technical pursuits but is felt to be socially inept.
2. A carnival performer whose show consists of bizarre acts, such as biting the head off a live chicken.

computer geek

n. 1. One who eats (computer) bugs for a living.
One who fulfills all the dreariest negative stereotypes about
hackers: an asocial, malodorous, pasty-faced monomaniac with all the
personality of a cheese grater. Cannot be used by outsiders without
implied insult to all hackers; compare black-on-black vs.
white-on-black usage of `african friend'. A computer geek may be either a
fundamentally clueless individual or a proto-hacker in larval
stage. Also called `turbo nerd', `turbo geek'. See also
propeller head, clustergeeking, geek out, wannabee,
terminal junkie, spod, weenie. 2. Some self-described
computer geeks use this term in a positive sense and protest sense 1
(this seems to have been a post-1990 development). For one such
argument, see `http://www.darkwater.com/omni/geek.html'. See also
geek code.

I do not fit either of these.

I'm not. I enjoy StarCraft, and I do my homework on wikipedia and MSWord, so sue me, I still play sports and go outside =/

EDIT: Because the post just didn't make any sense after what moose said.

Rofl, you would be more of a geek if you did your homework on wikipedia and openOffice.org.

I'll make up a new lame word that describes what we are since geek and nerd are derrogatory words, anyway you slice it. This word will be called Glod (no one will use it because it's such an ugly word, which is a good thing), it'll just mean someone with a certain apt for computers. Wow, what a lame idea.

Thank you captain obvious, I knew i was geek long time ago, probably when I was around 6 or 7, then I got the internet around 7-8 which quickly made me a bigger geek. so yea I own up to it.

Heck the only time I go outside is to usualy go to the next MTG Tournament, get something form the store/fast food restaraunt, or I don't go out at all.

I like Glod, it takes me closer to God.

ADDITION:
I think the proper word Yoshi was looking for is Nerd. Not geek. IceWarrior is a nerd.

No, nerds aren't good at life, geeks are
and if you aren't a geek, you aren't cool, because nowadays being is geek is so much better than being a gameless football steroid packer.

I'm not that either.

Excellent, but since your on the forums you are too so you can join my club!

I'm a nerd and a geek, but I don't go to the extremes that some do.

According to several females I know, my nerdism is an endearing quality. Fine by me if they think that; I'll carry on as normal.

During the Summer, the only times I go outside are:
At night, to throw away trash(I've gotten to the point where going outside in daylight actualy hurts my eyes...)
Very rarely to go to a store, though I almost always get my mom to take my brother and leave me home instead
And that's it.
I OWN!

You never go visiting friends? =P

OMG I R NO GIEK I HAF LIEF CAZ I GOT A GLRIFRIEND ADN SHE LIEKS TO DU STUF WIHT MI!



Well, you're fat.

I only know where two of my friends live.
One of them was away somewhere else for the summer, as I understand it, and the other can't play games online.
No point in visiting them.
I mean, cmon, is or has there ever been such thing as a fun or recreational activity that doesn't involve a computer and the internet?

I AM NOT A GEEK U LOZER U KNO NOTHING!!!
hehehe. I flamed yoshi! he knows I'm kidding.

For that first part, I've been outside in the sun for eight hours every day for the past week. Give me a break xP But yes, I am a geek. WOOHOO!!

[but also a senior]

I went on vacation and STILL had to use a computer, nothing else seemed entertaining, even TV!!

What is your definition of geek? What if I play a sport and do cool things, but not at the time.

Now what I have to say is, who cares? I think everyone should stop labelling eachother in a negative way.
