Pure Nerd 65 % Nerd, 13% Geek, 30% Dork This reminds me of the old SNL skit "Geek, Dweeb, or Spaz?"... "Sweet!" ;D Ha ha! I just remembered that skit. "We'll get some pizza, and then we could slide on my Slip 'N Slide all night! It's gonna be sweeeet!"

Welcome to geek-dom! I forgot to copy my percentages but it was majority geek and the description fit too, not that I'm entirely surprised.

A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions. You scored better than half in Dork, earning you the title of: Pure Dork. Like our friends Napoleon Dynamite & co.

[glow=red,2,300]Outcast Genius[/glow] 56 % Nerd, 52% Geek, 56% Dork 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 all three, earning you the title of: Outcast Genius. Outcast geniuses usually are bright enough to understand what society wants of them, and they just don't care! They are highly intelligent and passionate about the things they know are *truly* important in the world. Typically, this does not include sports, cars or make-up, but it can on occassion (and if it does then they know more than all of their friends combined in that subject). Outcast geniuses can be very lonely, due to their being outcast from most normal groups and too smart for the room among many other types of dorks and geeks, but they can also be the types to eventually rule the world, ala Bill Gates, the prototypical Outcast Genius. Congratulations! --------------------------------------------------- Well, I don't consider myself a "genius", but "outcast" describes me well. I could especially relate to the question on the quiz that asks, "Do you know any of the origins of the words nerd, geek or dork?" Awhile back on the Beauty and the Geek post, I made a comment about circus performers biting the heads off chickens, which is the original meaning of the word "geek".

Pure Dork 30 % Nerd, 17% Geek, 65% Dork 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 Dork, earning you the title of: Pure Dork. Like our friends Napoleon Dynamite & co.
It's not as though you were some whiz-kid in school. Oh, sure, you probably did okay in some classes, but were probably awful in others. Certainly most people thought you were smarter than you thought yourself to be. And it's not that you have some overriding passion, like computers or Star Trek that sets you apart for the crowd, though you likely share some interest in some of those sorts of things. You just like to be yourself, and want to express yourself for who you are.
And, really, there's nothing wrong with that. Being who you are often invites scorn, and so it's a difficult thing in a world that rewards conformity. Be proud of your dorkiness, for often it's just another word for individuality. (I'd vote for you!)
Congratulations! yep i'm a dork
