Do you consider yourself a nerd?

Do you consider being a nerd insulting?

Am I a nerd? I would have to say no, but that depends on who you ask 😀
 
Dictonary.com's says:

nerd also nurd (nûrd)
n. Slang
1. A foolish, inept, or unattractive person.
2. A person who is single-minded or accomplished in scientific or technical pursuits but is felt to be socially inept.

So no, I am not a nerd. I do however consider my TI-89 to be my lightsaber 😀
 
Yeah I have a "lightsaber" too, but the only calculating I do with it is with sexponentials, I mean exponentials...oh whatever 😉
 
No, I'm a geek or genius. Not certain which one 😛

BTW is NJArtist a nef?

[edit]: edited to satisfy shy 😛
 
Well since that definition doesn't describe me then I guess I'm not a nerd.. whoa.. also dweeb, geek, and dork apparently do not apply as all of their definitions are identical to nerd.. hmm
 
I've lost all my social skills since meeting my girlfriend...I have like no friends anymore, and don't seem to care. Is there something wrong with me? I think I spend more time on the computer than I do actually interacting with real live people.
 


<< i'm a geek. That is because i am somewhat social adept. =] >>


Try again:

Main Entry: geek
Pronunciation: 'gEk
Function: noun
Etymology: probably from English dialect geek, geck fool, from Low German geck, from Middle Low German
Date: 1914
1 : a carnival performer often billed as a wild man whose act usually includes biting the head off a live chicken or snake
2 : a person often of an intellectual bent who is disapproved of
- geeky /'gE-kE/ adjective

I thought I was a nerd, but I'm not sure what I am anymore. I'm just me. What you get with me is me.
 
Is NJArtist a nerd?

YES

He has started FIFTEEN threads in off topic today.

Without a doubt, one of the kings of internet nerd-dom.

BTW Nef! >>



Definately not a genius or else you'd realize that &quot;BTW Nef!&quot; means &quot;By the way Nef!&quot; which isn't even close to being a sentence.
