The difference between the nerd and the geek
Are you one of those people who think there is no difference between a geek and a nerd? Well let me tell you in advance, if you ever went up to a nerd and called him a geek, well, kiss your laptop/desktop goodbye cause when he is done with it it will be virused beyond repair.

Okay so to clarify, geeks are the ones who eat their boogers and were glasses with the tape in the middle, with the classic suspenders that hold their pants up past their belly button. Nerds are the ones like bill gates. Without the Microsoft million dollar company which, by the way, is completely over rated. Someday when your on the Internet and can't find anything better to do, google ubuntu, it will change the way you look at your computer.
Anyway back to the topic, the definition of nerd is really smart, but then you get into the different types of nerd. The computer nerd, (ME) the computer nerd is not just confined to computers, he does pretty much any piece of tech you can think of.

There is only one type of geek, some are smart, but one factor remains the same, and that's the glasses and suspenders. Now I don't mean to sound mean but suspenders were out fashioned in the 70's. I think it would be better to be a nerd than a geek. Nerds have a 176% chance of being geniuses, geeks on the other hand, more like 50%.
In conclusion, if you had to choose between geek and nerd, nerd is the best option. I hope I have cleared the name of the nerd with this, until next time.


P.S. (Nerds make the world keep spinning!!)
