Give me a break.

I'm too young to do alot of things, Larry. But you only live once right?

Yes, I have to agree with Esme here. Four years of nonstop infatuation and lust.

The person in #3 is not a nerd, he's a dork.

I'm a situational nerd. Put me with jocks & I'm a jock; with stoners I'm a... ride home; with nerds I'm a nerd.

Don't ask what I am with women. :)

I was just joking, Esme. You're not too young. I'm just being a goof -- like your brother.

I didn't mean to make that comment seem snippy. And you could never be like my brother(s). They're one of a kind jamooks.

Jamooks. I like that.

Oh now you're lying.

Careful, Dutch, you don't want to get stuck to your chair and have the fire department have to extract you.

I am so using this one.

Could we be cool nerds? Or is that an oxymoron?

Nerd is the new cool, Rachel! :)

Awesome!

It's true, even my daughter is all about the nerd glasses.



and the duck lips!

I have many nerdy qualities. Or maybe they're geeky qualities. I'm a music geek and a comic geek and an SF geek. I think it's all a spectrum, though. I like SF and comic books, but if you put me next to my friends who play RPGs I am not very geeky in comparison. Put me next to most of the people who hang out at our bar and I'm on the nerdy side; we have very different interests.

What is the difference between a dweeb and a nerd?

This may help.

Oh, that does help!
I'm a geek, but a sort of well-rounded one. I don't have any particular obsession, there are just a bunch of things I'm interested in.

I'm way more socially adept than I used to be. I may be morphing into geek territory, although I find the term "dork" more endearing.

I'm firmly in the nerd category.

It doesn't specify above average intelligence, just intelligence in general. And you are intelligent, Barb, intelligent and funny!

I guess I'm mostly a dweeb.

i'm definetely a nerd, though i'm trying to overcome some of my social ineptitude and am not nearly as inept as my brother.

You're better than just OK Barb.

Welcome to the land of dweeb Sally.

Barb wrote: "Hellz ya, it's the new cool.
People buy nerd glasses on purpose now!"

I wear nerd glasses. Most people do.

Now you gotta show us, Esme.

Hah, no fucking way. It's a fad at school, I'm waiting for it die out.

So you say you are a nerd, but you're not willing to prove it?

Not by posting an ugly picture.

Understood.

Jim, according to your chart, I'm a geek.

Oh I never noticed the chart for some reason. I'm a geek, not a nerd.

But a great geek Jammies.

Dweeb here.

Yay, another dweeb!

I just pictured you answering the phone this way.

Hummm...I think I'll try that out.

Not so great that I can't type the difference between a chart and a Venn diagram. *hangs head in shame*

I guess I'm a geek since that is what I am called by my wonderful family!
