BTW, if you ever wondered what the difference is between a nerd, a geek, and a dork ...


What's the difference between a nerd, a geek, and a dork?
Josh

Dear Josh:
We've been called all three, and to be honest, we always assumed they meant the same thing. However, according to the cool kids, there are differences.

Official definitions for nerd, geek, and dork each use the words "inept" and "foolish." Nerds have the added distinction of being "unattractive." Ouch. While it's hard to argue with the dictionary, we sought out definitions from the Internet at large.

According to Whatis.com, nerds are people of above-average intelligence who place little importance on their appearance. Nerds are often aware of their status, but they don't mind. In fact, many take pride in the putdown, as it means they're smart and not wrapped up in superficial worries.

Geek is a more specific term. Back in the day, geeks worked at carnivals, and (according to the dictionary) "bit the heads off live chickens." Thankfully, the term now has a different connotation. Like nerds, geeks are smart, but they tend to focus more on technology. As Urban Dictionary explains, these are the people you make fun of in high school and later work for as an adult.

Being called a "dork" is the biggest insult of the three. There's no way you can spin it into something positive. After all, even the dictionary writes that dorks are "stupid" people. And to make matters worse, dorks assume they're cool. Oh, and they smell, too."

Hey, I don't smell!!! :hitcomputer:

DORK?????

if you want my opinion, I don't think the nerds crashed the computer, I think the computer was confused because of some recent unexpected visitors :tweetz::tweetz:
Probably doesn't happen much :biggrin:

Just the right amount of awkwardness:

Slightly dorky Nerd God

It's interesting to see that these tests have gotten updated. Older nerd tests were skewed because they asked about some really old technologies, like paper tape. I've seen a paper tape machine, but I've never seen one working. It doesn't make me less dorky because I some of the tech is before my time.

I could be even nerdier if I had more free time, but having a three year old takes most of that up. Although some would argue that having reproduced lowers my nerd cred. :biggrin:

And yes, I do have a nerdier-than-thou attitude. :headbang:

Hmmm.... Paper tape. When I was a 'puter tech in London ('76) that was state-of-the-art, baby.

[why?]

Naw, that one was real easy :biggrin:

exactly. i can go without sex, but i couldn't function without the internet.

Learned on punch cards and fixed XEROX 2.5 Meg 14" hard drives among the more arcane stuff I used to fix!

[tomato]

^ so did I. I remember the cards and the paper tape.

[Altitude]

^ so did I. I remember the cards and the paper tape.

Ditto on the punch cards. Back when debugging was a REAL pain in the arse! Run the cards, generate the code, check the printout for bugs, re-punch the necessary cards make sure to stick them in the right order in the stack, re-run the cards... repeat.

This was from a high school COBOL class and I hated it because what I really wanted to do was get my grubby little hands on that sweet TRS-80 in the lab and geek out! :thumbup:

had my doubts lol

Yeah - punch cards ruled at IBM in '72 (my first REAL puter to play with. God, it was slow....)
