Last nights conversation with Eunice got me thinking, am I a nerd or a geek? I racked my brain trying to figure out what the difference was but just got frustrated. I turned to Urban Dictionary for help.
Nerd
An ‘individual’, i.e. a person who does not conform to society’s beliefs that all people should follow trends and do what their peers do. Often highly intelligent but socially rejected because of their obsession with a given subject, usually computers.Geek
Not to be confused with Nerd. A geek does not have to be smart, a Geek is someone who is generally not athletic, and enjoys Video Games; Comic Books; being on the Internet, and etc.
So now I’m really fucked cause I’m technically both.
