An Interesting Test

Inspired by Roj, I finally did my Nerd, Geek, or Dork Test.

Guess what am I?

And what are you?

Pure Nerd
65 % Nerd, 0% Geek, 34% Dork

How I compared to other people my age and gender:

I scored higher than 68% on nerdiness
I scored higher than 0% on geekosity
I scored higher than 62% on dork points

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.



Oh Wow! That sounds good.
