    Thanks to leahestey I have a song to post as well:

    Five Iron Frenzy
    You Can't Handle This lyrics

    Making young girls pine
    I don't have the time
    Babies get in line
    I've got a protractor

    Got a stapler now
    It goes "ka-ching"
    Gotta have the math club crown me king
    Gotta rock the screen with the cosine graphing
    On my calculator

    If you're up
    And if you want
    A piece of me
    Wave goodbye
    And blow a kiss
    'Cause you can't handle this

    Chorus-
    No, No, No
    You can't handle this
    No, No, No
    You can't handle this

    Through my glasses glare
    You'll see savoir faire
    Beneath my icy stare
    I've got a retainer

    Maybe I'm the physics main event
    Maybe I'm the chem club president
    Maybe even Texas Instruments
    Thinks that I'm coplanar

    If you're up
    And if you want
    A piece of me
    Wave goodbye
    And blow a kiss
    'Cause you can't handle this

    Chorus

    Bridge-
    And Leonard Nimoy
    Can't stand up to this
    And Captain James T. Kirk
    Bows beneath my fists
    And I am awesome
    Awesome
    I am the awesomest

    Well according to:

    http://www.helloquizzy.com/tests/the-nerd-geek-or-dork-test

    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.

    74 % Nerd, 17% Geek, 22% Dork

    You scored better than half in Nerd, earning you the title of: Pure Nerd.

    I failed, then. I'm a dork.

    Your result for The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test ...
    Pure Dork
    39 % Nerd, 9% Geek, 65% Dork

    I took the test.


    Modern, Cool Nerd
    61 % Nerd, 78% Geek, 48% 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 and Geek, earning you the title of: Modern, Cool Nerd.

    Nerds didn't use to be cool, but in the 90's that all changed. It used to be that, if you were a computer expert, you had to wear plaid or a pocket protector or suspenders or something that announced to the world that you couldn't quite fit in. Not anymore. Now, the intelligent and geeky have eked out for themselves a modicum of respect at the very least, and "geek is chic." The Modern, Cool Nerd is intelligent, knowledgable and always the person to call in a crisis (needing computer advice/an arcane bit of trivia knowledge). They are the one you want as your lifeline in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (or the one up there, winning the million bucks)!

    Congratulations!

    Like both Star Wars and Star Trek. Love Doctor Who. The early seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel were good. Love the writing of HP Lovecraft. Play WoW. Have my Atari 2600 and Sega Genesis still hooked up as well as the Xbox. I read when I can, but often fall asleep on the couch.

    Took the test...not sure how I feel about it.

    Pure Nerd

    61 % Nerd, 22% Geek, 30% Dork

    Pure Nerd
    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 tendencies 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.

    http://www.helloquizzy.com/tests/the-nerd-geek-or-dork-test

    I scored as Modern, Cool Nerd

    87 % Nerd, 74% Geek, 26% Dork

    I'm fairly certain most people would rate me much higher in the Dork range.

    I was wondering if I qualify as a nerd/geek/whatever because I lack most of the criteria (for example liking Science Fiction, I don't blog, I don't read blogs and no, I have never seen The Walking Dead).
    I'm rather interested in natural and social sciences, so I wasn't sure but...

    ...then I realised what my profile's nickname is.


    (For all you English speaking people out there: Arkani is the German name for Arcanine.)
