    well, I guess that sorta makes sense

    nerd or geek? I dunno, I never made a difference between the two, but, whenever I was called one I would flatly deny it and insist that I was the other.

    I always saw it as this:

    Geeks like cartoons, games and toys/gadgets and are socially acceptable.

    Nerds like computers and nothing else and are not socially acceptable.

    Dorks are nerds who try to be socially acceptable though are still not.


    I'm which case, beeing an animator, I'm a geek.

    Socially acceptable? Doubt if I am, but that's not due to computer habits.

    i always thought a geek was a nerd without the intelligence...
    like the geek who always explains tech stuff (but wrong), and then a nerd comes along and he looks foolish...
