Nerds are better, duh!

No offense to any geeks.

better at being nerds or better people in general. Personally I believe that no one person can be "better" than anyother person EVER!

Who better to be nerdy then a nerd? I don't know about "better", but I think nerds are the coolest type of people.

So, you'd rather be a nerd than a pimp? It's your call.

Its totally true Steffi!! They apprieciate (sp?) what they have got in you!

But seriously Angelus isn't a geek, he just loves computers and games etc which I do, and I'm certainly not a geek, I just know my stuff! ;)

If you travel to the southern location of Egypt you can discover a something which you already posses it's the DENILE!

I don't consider smart people geeks at all, I mean the geeks/nerds stereotype of either skinny or fat, hair completely gelled back, acne, squeaky strange voice, play Runescape and Warcraft non stop and thick "you should have gone to specsavers" glasses.

I consider myself quite smart (I suck at maths though) yet I really do not consider myself a geek at all. Since I'm the complete opposite of what I just said, as in neither skinny or fat (I have muscles yet I'm closer to skinny then fat), my hair is gelled forward, no acne, deep voice, I don't play computer games alot and do not wear glasses.

I just enjoy the internet and making games, sites and stuff.

Geeks are those people in 80's teen movies that get beaten up frequently by the jocks. I'm sure there are some geeks and nerds around here (Angelus for example :D ) but just because people know how to use a computer doesn't make them geeks. BlackThorne's not a geek, he drinks way too much for that.

Good definition of a geek. Quoting Monty Python's Life of Brian and thinking you're funny for knowing it all.

I always thought of Angelus as the big popular muscular type!? I guess it was just Keenu Reeves....or could I be right!???

Ooga Booga!

Geeks bite off the heads of bats. Nerds run a program that does that.

I wonder why FG fantasizes about A3K but then again maybe I don't wanna know.

Uh.........what brought you to that question? (PUKE!)

Quest For Glory Fan · #38 Post by **Quest For Glory Fan** » Fri Jul 08, 2005 3:04 am

well you said you always imagined Angelus as being a big muscly man. So I wondered why you would take the time to actually think "That Angelus sure is a muscly sounding male specimen."

FatherGhostface · #39 Post by **FatherGhostface** » Fri Jul 08, 2005 4:44 pm

I thought both Angelus AND Vamp, since they are the perfect couple. So I thought Angelus was a muscle man, and I thought of Vamp as beautiful as Annononmous Game Creator 1 (I hope I got that right), and they said Angelus isn't a geek so I assumed he was the oppisite and I remember seeing a picture of Vamp a while back so I know she's beautiful. So it really isn't wrong to say someone is strong. :|

Stereotypes?

HOLY SHIT!!! I started this thread hoping to get some good geek-related discussions going, possibly related to the What The Hack conference, and what I see is the occasional funny and/or geeky post with a bunch of FRIGGIN' CHILDREN making FRIGGIN' INNANE ONE-LINE POSTS!!! OMGWTF!!! STFU!!!!!!

Quest For Glory Fan · #43 Post by **Quest For Glory Fan** » Sat Jul 09, 2005 11:55 pm

it was pretty successful in that aspect I think even with the bits of comedy inbetween. Really though the topic was discussed out and everyones opinion was put out.

He was forbidden from using electronic devices? I didn't know that. It stands to reason, though, given his record.

Quest For Glory Fan · #45 Post by **Quest For Glory Fan** » Sun Jul 10, 2005 12:57 am

who is mitnic?

Charlemagne · #46 Post by **Charlemagne** » Sun Jul 10, 2005 3:28 am

Da_Elf: I'm now pretty sure the answer to your question is "yes". It seems that since he got out of jail Mitnick has started his own security consulting company. That probably means he can use electronic devices.

Hell, I'd probably hire him if I had some top secret corporate data to protect. I doubt many people know more about the "social engineering" aspect of security than he does. I think that's still one of the major weak links in computer security.

I totally agree.
