You don't need anyone's permission to be a geek. It's just something you evolve up to on your own. It appears that being a geek has become cool. This isn't rebellion, since rebellion assumes you dislike society enough to rebel against it, and geeks don't care enough about society to dislike it that much. Geek is not alternative, since alternative implies there is something else to be an alternative to, and geeks aren't limited by that kind of choice.
Geeks tend to live at the far edge of the bell curve.
They tend to be a few clues short of a geek, and are somewhat annoying but may have potential. Dweebs are nerd wanna-bes, and tend to be actively annoying. Spammers are dweebs. It's the offical Geek Code, which helps to identify what type of geek you are. All rights reserved.
