LocalSeer 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2006 IMHO a geek is someone whose computer life influences his normal life. He begins to say OMG instead of oh my god or noob when someone makes a mistake in actual real time. However for most people I bet a geek is anyone who dwells in images, web pages, and programing.Most geeks I know spend as much time socializing as everyone else, they just act different.

Sprnknwn 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2006 It depends. For people that aren?t too much into computers, I suppose everyone that has some kind a passion related with that (a website, posting at forums, graphic design, playing games, chatting...) looks like a geek. But if you are one of this persons you don?t have to consider yourself a geek, because there would be almost more geeks than "ordinary" people. I suppose that if computers are your only hobby and you cannot have a conversation without talking about them... well, then you?ll probably are a geek.

BuffaloHelp 24 Report post Posted January 14, 2006 lmao... nice topic.Geek: A person who's studious and focuses on gathering and knowing correct facts/information for the sole purpose of being omniscient. It is usually done for self-satisfaction. However, one does not shy away from the world. Interaction with the world is one of ways to gather information. Yet, lacks the social grace to infiltrate as the norm people.Nerd: A geek without a clue of this world and social behavior. HAHHA these are my definitions and I'm sticking to it! Geeks are not only confined to computer stuff but also in other fields. You can notice them right away when you say an incorrect fact, they are eager to correct you or say the correct fact. Their social manner is something to be questioned since they lack the ability to understand that there is something called, "personal space" when talking. They may look as normal as others (no white tape around the thick black glasses, or greasy hair with zits) but their ideal world revolves around intellectual challenges rather than the beauty that is skin deep. Sure you may find them easily in Star Trek conventions and Microsoft Meet and Greet, but you can also find them tuning up the red hot sports car with the latest exhaust pipe with tricked out interior that turns into mobile living room.

Kubi 0 Report post Posted January 15, 2006 @hellraiser -- I take quite offence from those remark. I find myself to be a geek, yet I have quite a few friends. I go to the mall a lot. Hm, I dohave asthma, but I try not to show it, I don't bring my inhaler to school and take a puff during class. I do wear glasses but they suit my look otherthen without them.Stupid childish problems? Usually if you're a computer geek you don't' have "stupid childish problems", because you're smart enough to know how to handle them, and if you can't, you're not a geek.Someone who you copy answers from, that's wrong aswell, I don't let people copy my answers, and if they do they'll end up with quite a few wrong problems on there math work.I've never joined a "boring after school club". After school I go out with my friends, park, mall, her house, whatever, and don't get home till around 6PM.I will admint I know a lot of usless things, but I don't really share them with people. I only share my knowledge with people if I must.Watch what you say next time or you could be looking at a ban. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rena 0 Report post Posted January 15, 2006 lol Geeks.I dislike labeling people. A geek is a person who is fascinated, perhaps obsessively, by obscure or very specific areas of knowledge and imagination. Geek may not always have the same meaning as the term nerd (see nerd for a discussion of the disputed relation between the terms).The definition of geek has changed considerably over time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geek Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
