    According to this, I am a nerd, not a geek. Gaming and cosplay are too social. My obsessions are miniature trains and cycling.

    This pretty much breaks it down.

    Are we talking legit like Revenge of the Nerds or just some hardcore gamer? I think that the nerd, geek, comic book nerd, dork, gamer, etc lines have been blurred and they need to be separated.

    Love it. Looks like I'm a video gaming and sci-fi geek.

    I'm definitely a strange one... I guess I could be called a geek! I have an insane love of sci-fi: Stargate, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, The X-Files, Firefly, Serenity, Star Wars, X-Men, Bladerunner, Tron, Alien, District 9, War of the Worlds, Starship Troopers, The Fifth Element, to name but a few! I also love horror & fantasy. I love to read: Myths of the Norsemen, 1984, Perpetual War for Perpetual Peace, Elephants on Acid & other Bizarre Experiments, Nostradamus a History of the Future, A Brief History of Time, The Alchemist, Game of Thrones, The Fellowship of the Ring etc etc... I read some comics, The Walking Dead, Clerks, Star Trek Archives. I also like gaming, construction & strategy games: Age of Empires, Command & Conquer, Sim City. Not sure if these things make me a geek but... I like historical & philosophical subjects/discussions. I study things like the cosmos & geology for fun in my free time. I read a lot about meditation practice, & self-progression type stuff. I meditate & practice yoga daily. I'm currently learning about (& putting into practice) self-sufficiency, to untimely live a semi-self sufficient, sustainable, & ethical lifestyle. I'm participating in lost crafts, for example local medicinal herbalism. If any of you think we share common interests please feel free to send me a friend request! I love meeting like-minded folk :)

    I'm an all around obsessed gamer, get all giggly over science discoveries, and I think bowties are cool! Does that qualify me as a geek?

    Does it make a noise like a coin when punched?

    I am the complete package. Nerd, Geek, & Dork all rolled into one. Jealous much?

    Funny thing is I ended up marrying a pretty ex-jock accountant :) Who won in the end eh popular H.S. jock *kitten*?!?!

    According to the chart, I would be a introverted but not socially inept geek. Then again posting here might push me into the nerd category :-)

    Well, I guess I am. I'm an IT Analyst and I play video games in my spare time...

    And FYI, I'm sure you're all jealous of my AWESOME BTTF shirt! :D
