Wow, I'm crushed...

I thought for sure I was a little geekier than "low rank computer geek." According to the rest of the result, I'm geeky, but low in the nerd social order. I'm hurt.

My computer geek score is greater than 61% of all people in the world! How do you compare? Click here to find out!

Yeah, this post is a waste of time. :)

I recently had an argument about geekiness. I think the term needs to be saved from dealing exclusively with technology. I insist it refer to an obsessive fascination with something out of the mainstream. Like comic books.

Thank you, Stewart. Good point. And I would add to the list: Harry Potter (to the point that it goes beyond the mainstream--yes, that is my entire collection of action figures, snowglobes, robes, sorting hat, wand and spreadsheet of all the HP discussion groups I belong to - wanna make something of it? :), Firefly, Stargate SG1, RenFaires, and heated arguments with nerds about what constitutes geekiness. :)
