Nerd, Geek or Dork?

Truly, I am shocked at the results. I thought I was dork all the way!

OK, spill! What are you?

Your Score: Pure Nerd


52 % Nerd, 34% Geek, 39% 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, 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 tendences 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.


Congratulations!

I'm a nerd, too. They didn't ask any questions about biting the heads off chickens, though, so I think their qualifications for "Geek" are a little off base.

Outcast Genius

Seriously, like near equal scores in every factor.

"52 % Nerd, 56% Geek, 52% 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 all three, earning you the title of: Outcast Genius.

Outcast geniuses usually are bright enough to understand what society wants of them, and they just don't care! They are highly intelligent and passionate about the things they know are *truly* important in the world. Typically, this does not include sports, cars or make-up, but it can on occassion (and if it does then they know more than all of their friends combined in that subject).

Outcast geniuses can be very lonely, due to their being outcast from most normal groups and too smart for the room among many other types of dorks and geeks, but they can also be the types to eventually rule the world, ala Bill Gates, the prototypical Outcast Genius."

I look forward to ruling the world some day. Oh, yes.

Your Score: Joe Normal
26 % Nerd, 21% Geek, 34% Dork

You scored less than half in all three, earning you the title of: Joe Normal.

... You look and act fairly typically, and aren't much of an outcast.

Congratulations!


Ha! And now, if anyone discovers the bodies, you can all say how I always seemed like such a normal guy.

I got 60% nerd, 52% geek, 17% dork

You scored better than half in Nerd and Geek, earning you the title of: Modern, Cool Nerd. 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)!


I can definitely see Russel as an Outcast Genius. Not sure about Stuart as Joe Normal. But then I've only met him once or twice.
