Any geeks/nerds here?

I'm not sure what the distinction between a geek and a nerd is, but I work a programmer, like Star Wars and Harry Potter, like to play games, and write fanfiction. So yeah, I think I qualify as a nerd/geek.

I'm a little shaky on the difference between geek and nerd.  Well, I guess more specifically, I'm a little unclear on the technical, sociological definition of geek.  I definitely know what a nerd is, and I definitely am one of those.  I've always been a nerd.

I once saw a venn diagram showing the traits and characteristics of nerds and geeks, and how and when they overlap, but I forget what any of it said.

"gaming" isnt nerdy. Neither is anime.

I'd say stuff like game developing and coding would be considered nerdy and geeky, meh I don't have much knowledge of hardware, so i wouldn't consider myself a geek.

Nerd but not geek.

I still don't understand the difference between "geeks" and "nerds", but I would definitely say that I am one or both. I was referred to as a nerd in middle school, which used to hurt my feelings, but I most certainly do proudly classify myself as one nowadays. :) 

As a kid, I LOVED to learn about dinosaurs! I also enjoy learning about horse breeds, psychology, and love to translate Latin text. Mythology is also one of my loves! :love:

Yeah! Crypty the techno-geek pony is here! I adore everything on the cutting edge of technology ^-^

Cuz when you walk through town and see kids on gyroscooters and can check theirs specs in the Internets at the same moment you understand - we live in the future.

Everyone sees the difference on their's own way, so in general it's the same.

Yes, I'd consider myself a nerd in many ways, but I'm proud of it. I am a reading nerd, history nerd, chess nerd. I love anime so ask me about those series and I'll give you detail. I love animals, especially dogs so I am a dog nerd. Ask me about Wonder Woman and I am a nerd fangirl, same for Star Wars. I also love knowledge and being a doctoral student.

I can safely say that I think most of us here would be a bit or we wouldn't be here!

I'm not because I can't, internet access is difficult to me so its hard to watch a single episode.

If I had the possibility I would have been a nerd X 3.
