Geek or nerd?

[vergil96]

Do you consider yourself a geek or a nerd? Why?



I'm not sure, probably a bit of both.

I didn't know there was a difference?

I just ordered the "Lego" version of the Ghostbusters Firehouse. Does that make me a nerd or a geek?

I got a funky Fujifilm Instax camera for my birthday. Is that geeky or nerdy? This is a much more complex issue than I could ever have appreciated.

O o o o! I got a PicoFly modchip for my Switch Lite. That's nerdy right?

 

[vergil96]

I run everything from terminal and use Vim, execute commands and speak C++, that's nerdy And there's a ram in my PC

Watching "Revenge of the Nerds" left me with a permanent reticence to ever refer to myself using that word.

I'm a geek....building my own PCs. So sue me. As if anyone cared anyways....

Based on this diagram, I think I am a DORB (mostly dork with a touch of dweeb).

I still recall in "Stargate" when Kurt Russell referred to James Spader as a "dweeb". It wasn't kind.

Somehow I could never see Kurt Russell in a role like "Sex, Lies & Videotape".

Going by the Venn, definitely nerd. Would have said that if I hadn't seen the diagram.

Interesting. It works for me!

 

[MildredHubble]

I'm thinking I may lean towards DORB too. I didn't appreciate this was a spectrum. But I'm learning

I’m both, interchangeably, at all times!

I run everything from terminal and use Vim, execute commands and speak C++, that's nerdy And there's a ram in my PC

I run everything from the terminal, use vi, execute commands, and compile from source. On Linux From Scratch. On an underclocked Raspberry Pi!

sudo You rock, whatever you call yourself.

Like The Venn diagram, Nerd is me.

sudo nano

I think I tried Vi once and it didn't end well
