I still have the lowest...19

What am I doing here, I should be glued to the couch drinking domestic beer and watching reality tv.

Only 28%. It also said i'm not hip, guess i gotta work on that part though. :)

by gadgetgirl

Lightly nerdy.

No real surprise - it was probably the clean room that clinched it ....! :p

How on earth did I rank a 70%? I mean, I've alwyas KNOWN that I'm a nerd, but sheesh...I didn't think it was this bad!

by tonythetiger

you have to be somewhat nerdy to even take the test, so I think 40 would probably be closer to average. BTW, 48

by dmambo

I got a 62 - low-level nerd. It must somehow use the reciprocal of the actual score because I would rank myself as about a 38 - low-level cool.

Feel free to disagree if you think I'm, in reality, cooler than I'm giving myself credit for. :D

by maecuff

I got a 35, not nerdy but not hip, either. That's just wrong. I'll agree that I'm not nerdy, but I AM hip. Dammit. And nice.

by dmambo

Yeah, you're hip, Mae. (Haven't used that word in that context since the '70's.)

And I am cool, right????

As far as being nice, ummmm, yup, I'll never say you're not nice. You're too scary not to be called nice.

by nicknielsen

No way I'm that big a nerd. I mean, I answered yes to all those questions and I won on Jeopardy, but...

by maecuff

you are cool. And you can still use the word hip in this context. Of course, it won't be long until the word hip will only be used to complete this sentence: I broke my...

Edited to add: I am NOT scary.

...but I'm out of here until after New Year's Day, so I hope you all have a wonderful holiday, and yes, even a fabulous Christmas.

Best wishes for the New Year to you guys and to the rest of my TR friends.

by maecuff

Looking forward to 'talking' with you after the dreadful holiday season.

Was that grim enough,Ebenezer?

Mid level Nerd! Me! And I seemed so normal just moments ago.

*sniff*

'smiley here'
I scored over 70, and I woulda thought around 50 would be appropriate.
Maybe it was the 10+ hours a day on a computer, or scientific calculator, or......

I am nerdier than 75% of all people. Are you nerdier? Click here to find out!

Well, ain't that special!

25% scored higher (more nerdy), and
75% scored lower (less nerdy).

What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

Mid-Level Nerd. Wow, it takes a lot of hard nerdy practice to reach this level.

by jdclyde

no box. Did get a pair of killer drinking socks though. How long ago did you send it?

by maecuff

you might only be a mid-level nerd, but you ARE a full-on dweeb.

There, feel better now?

Guess I think too highly of the postal service.

Do me a favour and drop me a note when you get it.

I have to finish restoring my pc now :( . It had an attitude problem last night, had to do a reimage. Fortunately, I haven't been using it long and had all the right disks and everything to fix it.

Snowing here. Watch out for falling white stuff- bet it visits you next.

by jdclyde

is what is in our forecast. Snow MAYBE Monday or Tuesday.

Will keep my eyes peeled! thanks!

by maecuff

Do you really want to take on both of us? We'll leave you a quivering shadow of your former self. And I don't mean that in a good way.

by w2ktechman

so, should you be girlnerd12 now???

I think that most of us were surprised. Funny, it never asked if youve ever dressed up at a sci-fi convention. If so, my # would have been lower, cause I wouldnt do it.

by the ref

And I thought I wouldn't rate. I was expecting a try hard nerd category.

I think the pre 1990 HP RPN calculator got me ;-)

by w2ktechman

but on the geek test, I only got a 66, which means I am 3/4 nerd, 2/3 geek. I would have expected more of the opposite myself. Oh well, I guess its the life of a nerd for me now. I gotta change a few habits.

What is funny though, my ex-manager which I wouldnt guess as very nerdy or geeky, scored 85 as a geek and only 54 as a nerd.....

by w2ktechman

Don't you know that the elderly dont like to be called elder? That just riles them up.

Ok, I am sitting here with some beef jerky now, so I can witness this event. Start slinging everyone?

by maecuff

Before you're allowed to watch, I have to have an idea of what age group you're in. See, JD can get away with comments like that, because, basically, he's the same age I am. Okay..maybe a few years younger, but not enough to count. But if JD were 10 years younger than me (or more) I'd have to be particularly vicious. And if YOU fall into that category, well..we'll have to at least charge admission.

And since it's tacky to ask age, I'll just ask you to answer the following questions:

Do you remember when the Beatles first came to the United States?

Do you have peers that brag about actually being at Woodstock?

While you were in highschool, did boys dress like John Travolta and listen to the Bee Gees?

While you were in highschool did you(or your peers) wear a lot of black clothes and black eyeliner and listen to the Cure?

While you were in highschool did you (or your peers) wear a lot of flannel and listen to Nirvana and Pearl Jam?

If you're any older or any younger than these questions would indicate, I just don't want to know.

by girlgeek12

I'm a true Geek by the geek test. I am more nerd than Geek. My real friends know this is true, but most people who meet me, can not believe it.

by w2ktechman

spend your vacation learning how to be more nerdy.

Or
Make up for it by doing the Geek quiz, and scoring highly. (better option)
