So, what is the official difference between these four? There's a group at my college called the Campus Nerds. I'd like to start a competing group (just for the friendly controversy) called the Campus Geeks. I already have my pitch: "Don't be a NERD, join the CAMPUS GEEKS!" ------------------ "To avoid criticism, say nothing, do nothing, be nothing." Aristotle IP: Logged |

heres my take on it:Nerds are those who study their ***** off! they are the kind that would read the chapter 2 weeks earlier and "interfere" when the prof/teacher is explaining it! they are the worst! Geeks are like computer geeks, into sci-fi and stuff, they know theire software.. dorks are the ones wearing thick aglasse and/or braces and the pit of most jokes, they are usualy nice, mellow people who simply just dont blend in example: look at what he's wearing! he's such a dork!! dweebs are idiots who do stpid things, example: you dweeb you cant microwave a soda can!! ugh!

I always think of geeks as nerds with skills. Dorks are airhead/quirky nerds, and dweebs are hopeless.IP: Logged |
