I too hate stereotypes, and agree with NN10 that labels are for jars.
But if:
- liking films such as LotR and Star Wars etc
- watching programmes like the X-Files and Star Trek almost religiously
- reading books everyday (and the odd comic)
- writing in fictional languages
- spending hours on the computer
- taking sciences and maths and enjoying them
Makes you a geek, then I guess I am one. I've been told so many a time.
