People call me a nerd all the time, and I imagine that is because I'm way into a lot of "nerdy" things (science, computers, Harry Potter, Star Trek, Latin, video games, etc.). I get good grades and I have bad social skills.

I'm geeky and nerdy at home, but at school I am normal. I talk a lot at school, pretty much any group of people. I also talk to a lot of good looky girls.

Also.. I don't look nerdy at all.

Just call me modern

I'm mix of the two, mainly being modern. I'm really smart and like the internet and stuff like that, but I don't read comics or manga or stuff like that.

I'd like to say I'm a nerd, but to be completely honest, I'm pretty average when it comes to smarts, well and just about everything else.

I'm a nerd as in I know a lot about the typical nerd things (Star wars, video games, computers, good grades and such) and while I have good social skills and don't seem like a nerd, I don't have very many freinds but what freinds I do have I can't believe I was able to find.

Well, I'm smart and athletic. I love fantasy football and I'm starting to get into fantasy basketball. I'm always perusing the internet but I'm not into anime. The only games that I play are Madden, NBA 2k9, GTA, Socom, and a few others here and there. I've never even seen Star Wars so I'm ruled out of the first one. I don't fit into any of those, really. Oh well.

None of the above. I'm just a person who knows too many useless facts, and likes science and math. I'm not into star wars or star trek, dont know anything about comics or anime, manga, and practically never play video games, which I only really play if thats what all my friends are doing. I spend more of my time in the garage working on my car or hanging out with friends, or at work, or the gym.

D'aww, an inhaler doesn't make you a nerd! As for the poll, none of those really fit me. Video games are really all that makes me nerdy at all. At school I'm pretty much normal, though I tend to avoid the "popular" kids not because I don't feel like I fit in, but because, well, they're typically idiots.

The only thing I'm into is games, though, if anything, clothes is my greatest passion, and I'm a super prep, so I don't know how nerd and prep mixes.

You got them mixed up. Nerds are the ones who are just plain smart.

Just thought I'd let you know.

NERD: someone who studies alot about everything GEEK: someone who know alot aobut computers you can quote me on that

I think I'll quote Wikipedia instead, which I needn't remind you is a Mecca for nerds and geeks alike:

The word geek is a slang term, noting individuals as "a peculiar or otherwise odd person, especially one who is perceived to be overly obsessed with one or more things including those of intellectuality, electronics, gaming, etc."


Nerd
is a term often bearing a derogatory connotation or stereotype, that refers to a person who passionately pursues intellectual activities, esoteric knowledge, or other obscure interests that are age inappropriate rather than engaging in more social or popular activities. Therefore, a nerd is often excluded from physical activity and considered a loner by peers, or will tend to associate with like-minded people.Wikipedia

They're similar, but subtly different.

Mix of both, leaning to the modern. I have the old school traits of comics, slightly above average knowledge of star wars, and I've played a few table top games before like Warhammer and some D&D. However I mainly play games, attend launch parties (recently for World At War), read manga, watch anime, have a GS account...
