A friend of mine from Bristol (Amy) seems to get very confused about the differences between a geek, nerd and dork.
She calls me a nerd and I usually have to remind her that I’m actually a self described geek.
Finally someones drawn up a diagram highlighting the differences…
To all of you nerds and geeks who–like me–have been unfairly and inaccurately labeled “dorks,” only to then exhaustively explain the differences among the three to a more-than-skeptical offender, I say:
You’re welcome. This nerd/dork/geek/dweeb Venn diagram should save you a lot of time and frustration in the future.
To those of you who have been called “dweebs,” I say:
Stop hanging out with people from the 1950s.
