people's own definitions of these words are too varied for the poll to be of any meaning

Moreso a geek than a nerd, although sometimes I can't help myself.

I like the title "ubermetrogeekmaterialisticgadgetwhore". ;)

I consider myself a geek (hardware geek, specifically), but my fiancee has a shirt that says "I love nerds", so I could be wrong :)

I have computer Skills and I do feal a little anger when I hear people say things like "Im gonna get my CPU and play games on it, Then im going to build a whole new CPU" After correction they decided to argue, or course.

Anyways, I also have social Skills (HS Senior Class Pres. of '04). And while Im not a beutiful sight to behold, I have seen much worse just browsing the pics on this forum :p.
