Quiz Time

Taking a quiz seems to be rather popular in the blogging world. Or filling up that Bulletin Space on the MySpace. So I thought I would put it on my blog instead because well easier then logging into myspace and I can do it from my cell phone.

So I found this quiz on Digg.com Geek, Dork or Nerd Quiz

My Results Were as Followed.

Modern, Cool Nerd
69 % Nerd, 60% Geek, 13% 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!

Ahh let the Ego Swell as I think of myself as a Cool Modern Nerd.

  1. Interesting quiz! I was expecting it to be like “Do you use C++ or C+++ or F to the third power when programming” kinds of questions. But this one actually had questions I could answer!

    Apparently I’m a nerd:

    PURE NERD
    52 % Nerd, 13% Geek, 13% Dork

    I think that just means that I’m academic.

  3. I was even steven between the three with “Dork” inching ahead a bit. Not shocking. I am a dork. But some people like that about me! Right Tristan? 😉
