I scored:

Joe Normal
21 % Nerd, 8% Geek, 30% Dork

yay I'm not a Geek!

Before taking the test, I'd say I'm a geek.

So many damned questions!

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 Nerd and Dork, earning you the coveted title of: Tri-Lamb Material.

The classic, "80's" nerd, you are what most people think of when they think "nerd," largely due to 80's movies like Revenge of the Nerds and TV shows like Head of the Class. You're exceptionally bright and smart, and partly because of that have never quite fit in with your peers or social groups. Perhaps you're realized, or will someday, that it is possible to retain all of the things that you like about being brilliant and still make peace with the social cliques around you. Or maybe you won't--it's really not necessary. As the brothers of Lambda Lambda Lambda discovered, you're fine just the way you are and can take pride in that. I mean, who wants to be like Ogre, right!? Hmm, they got the definition of geek wrong, methinks. I thought nerds were specialised, but geeks were just like unsociable people who like 3d, books, computers, rpgs etc. In which case my prediction was somewhat correct. :p

Did this many times before....hardcore Geek, at your service. I do hope you're not implying Geeks are bad in some way by your final remark, CTP?

86% nerd 36% geek 54% dork

You scored higher than 67% on nerdiness

You scored higher than 80% on geekosity

You scored higher than 69% on dork points

Hah! I'm a Modern, Cool Nerd, thank you very much...


Good god, I'm lonely....

91 % Nerd, 30% Geek, 13% Dork --> You are a Pure Nerd

Not a huge surprise. I guess wanting to learn and attain knowledge makes you a nerd...

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 Nerd, earning you the title of: Pure Nerd.

The times, they are a-changing. It used to be that being exceptionally smart led to being unpopular, which would ultimately lead to picking up all of the traits and tendences associated with the "dork." No-longer. Being smart isn't as socially crippling as it once was, and even more so as you get older: eventually being a Pure Nerd will likely be replaced with the following label: Purely Successful.

People confuse you with a Nerd all of the time. You aren't some genius, like some people have said, and didn't/don't really like school all that much (and you especially hated some of the social aspects, like getting mocked). It's just that you have some passions and interests that you're extremely into/good at, and this has placed you in circles with other social outcasts, some of whom are exceptionally bright.

The awesome thing about being where you are is that you get to hang out with an elite group (though you'd probably rather be alone, or with only the closest friends and family) and you can make quite a good career for yourself in your particular specialities. Common to this group are people who are highly into electronics/computers as that is where the money lies, today.

Congratulations!

Outcast Genius
52 % Nerd, 60% Geek, 52% Dork
For The Record:

A Nerd is -snip-
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!


sounds about right :D :p

You scored less than half in all three, earning you the title of: Joe Normal.

This is not to say that you don't have some Nerd, Geek or Dork inside of you--we all do, and you can see the percentages you have right above. This is just to say that none of those qualities stand out so much as to define you. Sure, you enjoy an episode of Star Trek now and again, and yeah, you kinda enjoyed a few classes back in the day. And, once in a while, you stumble while walking down the street even though there was nothing there to cause you to trip. But, for the most part, you look and act fairly typically, and aren't much of an outcast.

I'd say there's a fair chance someone asked you to take this test. In any event, fairly normal.

Congratulations!

Pure Dork- 43% Nerd 6% Geek 60% Dork

Yey, I'm a dork!

The description is quite accurate actually ...

Pure Dork
39 % Nerd, 21% Geek, 60% Dork
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!

If I had to choose, obvioubsly I would be a geek because I play Halo2 (and talk about it with people), Magic the Gathering( Yes this is the one area of my life where I can consider myself a true geek) and various other computer/xbox games.
Dont consider myself a dork cuz I have a good deal of lady friends. And I am a bit of a history nerd but history is teh cool so it dont matter.

I'm not going to okcupid becuase I'm tired of recieving their godamn e-mails.

I'm either a nerdy dork or a dorky nerd. Probably the latter since I don't have encyclopedic knowledge of sci-fi or sci-real, I don't have a military fetish and my computer is merely a tool to do other things and not an ends to itself. I haven't updated my OS in so long I can no longer update other things.

But I have nerd like tendencies with the things I do dig (racing and vintage sports cars, jazz, old radio plays-now that last one is nerdy, film) and I'm a giant dork about the way I enjoy some of it.

It's actually why I don't drink, aside from feeling sick the next day. I can control and supress my dorkyness under most circumstances, not share to much or get stupid about things (start quoting The Shadow, tell lengthy histories of a car that happened to drive by), but when I get drunk my mouth goes without checking in first. When I'm stoned the opposite happens, everything that's said is, for the most part, carefully considered to see if it's worth it to say anything. Occasionally I'll go into lecture mode, but even then it's not too bad.

Joe Normal.

Bloody Hell, that's disappointing...

Nerds didn't use to be cool, but in the 90's that all changed. It used to be that, if you were a computer expert, you had to wear plaid or a pocket protector or suspenders or something that announced to the world that you couldn't quite fit in. Not anymore. Now, the intelligent and geeky have eked out for themselves a modicum of respect at the very least, and "geek is chic." The Modern, Cool Nerd is intelligent, knowledgable and always the person to call in a crisis (needing computer advice/an arcane bit of trivia knowledge). They are the one you want as your lifeline in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (or the one up there, winning the million bucks)!

Congratulations!

Isn't it funny how both of our mercenary states are normal people?...

Well mercenaries arent star trek fan boys, we are smart but may not always have a phD, and one needs a certain level of cool and poise to be a mercenary.

It's not that you're a school junkie, like the nerd, and you don't really stand out in a crowd, like the dork, you just have some interests that aren't quite mainstream. Perhaps it's anime, perhaps it's computers, perhaps it's bottlecaps, perhaps it's all of those and more. Your interests take you to events and gatherings that are filled with people you find unusual and beyond-the-pale, but you don't quite consider yourself "of that crowd." Instead, you consider yourself to be fairly normal.

Which, you are.
