Geeks vs. nerds
01.11.05 (9:41 am)   [edit]
Do you think there's a difference? I think nerd has a worse connotation. I don't like nerds, but I love geeks. I'm losing touch with them, though. I'm losing touch with the techie world!!! I went into Eletronics Boutique last week with the P Man, and the store just smelled of BO...made me think of a gamer holed up in his room playing for hours on end. The P man said the store smelled like nerds. Why did I find it so hysterical?

One of the times I saw the tarot card reader she suggested date people other than geeks. I've tried that, and I still think I am more comfortable with techie geeks. They usually know the ins and outs of the cool toys. And at least they can point me in the direction of cheap computer parts.

I am still thinking of getting an iPod mini...but then an iPod is not that much more. I just don't want something too big. I don't know if I should just get one while I'm in Hong Kong. It would cost me a little less, but all my music is here. I wouldn't be able to use the iPod 'til I got home...unless I could borrow some from my cousins. I should be getting an AudioBug at some point, and this way I can play MP3s on my stereo and more importantly, in the car!!

Oh right...yesterday, my tshirthell t-shirt arrived. I guess this time it was on schedule. It took 10 days!! I'll have to wait 'til it shrinks a bit before it will look hot on me :P Maybe I will wear it this weekend. It will be Paula's last weekend at her home before she moves home, and she's throwing a party. The P man asked me if he could go. I told him no.

We're due for more snow this afternoon. I was in such a hurry to get to work this morning that I forgot to make my sandwich. I was wondering why my lunch bag looked so bare. I guess I will go home and make it now and hurry back. My workload has increased!!

Yes, there is a difference. I am a geek but definitely NOT a nerd.

Are you sure you're not a nerd? ;-) Or just a math geek??

geeks are the brilliant minds behind most tech support.. nerds are the ones that wear the erkal pants and the pocket protecters and stuff..lol

It didn't snow! I was disappointed...

"The P man said the store smelled like nerds"

I think that's hilarious too! :)
