Nerds! Nerds! Nerds!

(snagged from an
Insider
)
Take the Nerd, Geek, or Dork? Test

Of course, I am a nerd.

Pure Nerd
56 % Nerd, 43% Geek, 30% 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, earning you the title of: Pure Nerd.

The times, they are a-changing. It used to be that being exceptionally smart led to being unpopular, which would ultimately lead to picking up all of the traits and tendences associated with the "dork." No-longer. Being smart isn't as socially crippling as it once was, and even more so as you get older: eventually being a Pure Nerd will likely be replaced with the following label: Purely Successful.

Congratulations!

You scored higher than 38% on nerdiness

You scored higher than 55% on geekosity

You scored higher than 44% on dork points

I was just plain ol JOE NORMAL...I'm not sure if that's a good thing, or just REALLY boring!
