These days, there are plenty of different ways to be geeks, and whether you and your friends head to bright anime conventions or you spend your time watching Star Wars for the twentieth time, you’ll find that there are lots of ways to express your geek pride. So what kind of geek are you?

For example, are you an Apple geek? An Apple geek sees PCs as a personal affront, and more than just purchasing Apple products, they make Apple part of their identity. They love the idea of intuitive design and intuitive user interfaces, and you can spot them easily by going to the Apple store and seeing which customers are helping their fellow customers.

Chic geeks, on the other hand, take fashion to the next level. They dress well, even if they march to the beat of their own drummer in terms of design, and they love unique fashions that allow them to stand out from the crowd!

Geeks claim that they are superior due to their normative social skills. Nerds have the uniformly high intelligence that practically guarantees them entrance into Ivy League universities. Geeks win this battle because geekdom is a self-selective universe. Anyone with a geeky hobby can be a geek. Nerds are nerds whether they like it or not; the label is applied to them by others and there is not much they can do about it.

Being called a geek is a good thing, whereas being called a nerd is an insult of the highest order. A geek’s skills and knowledge can be put to use in his career for financial gain. A nerd may have many talents, but very often a nerd’s abilities do not translate into any tangible real-world benefits. Geeks embrace their identities, sometimes proudly wearing geeky clothes as badges of honor. Nerds are identifiable by their straightforwardly awful fashion choices.
