Stolen from jsgbits:

Modern, Cool Nerd 86 % Nerd, 56% Geek, 34% Dork

For The Record: 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 Geek, earning you the title of: Modern, Cool Nerd. 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 eeked out for themselves a modicrum 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!

My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 97% on nerdiness You scored higher than 68% on geekosity You scored higher than 53% on dork points

Yay, I am a Pure Nerd!

But you are still nerdlier-than-I.

I scored 75% on nerdliness, but only 43% on geekosity and 5% on dork points. I am the anti-dork! Go, me!

But dang, I actually thought I was more of a nerd/geek. Who knew?

Joe normal here. 41 % geek. 29% nerd, and 29% on dork...

I is boring...

I'm completely jealous of your lack of dork-ness.
