I'm a nerd who has learned to kick ass.
So is that an assertive nerd,or is that an oxymoron?

The poll doesn't have anything to do with the thread.

That makes until now 19 nerds, one wannabe-nerd and only 3 who claim they aren't, although in this group - as we know - there's always a good percentage of people who repress their nerdhood.
Wow, that leaves 21 nerds and me. I'm not, my avatar shows that clearly!

I don't feel like a nerd or geek, but my social ineptitude forces me to act like one in most cases. Just about everyone who first meets me thinks I'm a geek, and often people don't change that opinion over time because they never get to know me enough to prove otherwise.

I'm Geekish. I'm not totaly socially inept although I can get intimidated. I am married though with a kid so i must have done something right.
I like computers ( although I don't no too much)
I am however an amazing source of trivia.
At school the *****y girls wouldn't even waste their time being *****y with me
I'm putting on weight since I stopped smoking but i'm not overweight yet.

A "No" vote, but can I join the club based on being rude, crude, and socially unacceptable?

Slow- doesn't being obsessed with music lyrics count as being nerd like

Rejected, dejected, and screwed; yet again.

If I had my druthers, I'd pick nerd.

Depends on your politics.

I think doing the test already qualifies me. I got only 29% nerd factor though...

Here is the result of your 500 Point Nerdity Purity Test.
You answered "yes" to 205 of 500 questions, making you 59.0% nerd pure (41.0% nerd corrupt); that is, you are 59.0% pure in the nerd domain (you have 41.0% nerd in you).
According to the scoring guide, your nerd experience level is: You refuse to live anywhere without pizza delivery
Your Weirdness Factor (AKA Uniqueness Factor) is 34%, based on a comparison of your test results with 29463 other submissions for this test.
The average purity for this test is 62.5%.
Oh yeah!

I'm more of a geek than a nerd.
I might not be smart enough to be a nerd. My IQ is only 180.

Hey, you didn't include a freak option!
I'm a geek because I like playing games on a computer, and my social skills aren't top, and I try not to study, something that is very successful up till now!

I think f*cking my wife would score me 100% on any geeky thing on this poll. However, walking along the Eurocoms would get me f*cking her and loving it!
