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! (If you enjoyed this test, I would love the feedback!

I'm a little surprised that there weren't any questions along the lines of "When you see something broken on a web page, do you usually know what, exacly, is wrong? Do you bring up the source code just to make absolutely certain? Do you e-mail the webmaster with a fully repaired version of the page?" ;)
(Not that I do that. Past the first one. Much...)

So it's not just me then?
Date: 2005-08-25 07:42 pm (UTC)a) eventually fix every page on the web
or
b) annoy the life out of every webmaster on the planet.
Er, not that I do that either, past the second one. Much.
