Geeks? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I don't know if someone will agree with me, but it seems to me that geeks are not as un-accepted as they used to be. Or maybe they have learned to be geeky but still fit in...somehow. But why does anybody care if someones a geek? There are probably more of them in this world than those who consider themselves normal... no sense stereotyping.

I, for one, am a true-blue geek and nobody cares about my geekiness. To Angband with those who think geeks are (insert something insulting here).

Lhunardawen, a geek and loving it.

yes, it does seem like nerd/geek is less of an offensive term anymore, and more like a badge of honour now.
