    Geek meaning & definition 2 of Geek.


  • One of four titles used to classify someone based on their technical and social skills. The other three titles are nerd, dork, and normie. The difference between the four titles can be easily shown in table form:
    ................ Technical ...... Social
    Title ............ Skills ......... Skills

    Normie ......... No ............. Yes
    Geek ........... Yes ............. Yes
    Nerd ............ Yes ............. No
    Dork ............ No .............. No
    Normie: A normal person. Blah.
    Geek: An outwardly normal person who has taken the time to learn technical skills. Geeks have as normal a social life as anyone, and usually the only way to tell if someone is a geek is if they inform you of their skills.
    Nerd: A socially awkward person who has learned technical skills due to the spare time they enjoy from being generally neglected. Their technical knowledge then leads normies to neglect them even further, leading to more development of their technical skills, more neglection, etc. This vicious cycle drives them even more into social oblivion.
    Dork: A person who, although also socially awkward, doesnt have the intelligence to fill the void with technical pursuits, like a nerd, and is forced to do mindless activities. Almost always alone. Usually with an XBox. Like playing Halo. All day. Every day. Not even understanding how the Xbox is making the pretty pictures on the screen. Very sad.

    Geek meaning & definition 3 of Geek.


  • The term geek originally referred to the carnival performers whose act consisted of biting the heads off chickens and eating glass. Over time it came to be applied to anyone who got paid to do work considered odd or bizarre by mainstream society.
    The term now enjoys a special status within the technical community, particularly among particularly knowledgable computer programmers. To identify oneself as a geek indicates a recognition that most people still consider programming computers to be a bizarre act, along with a certain fierce satisfaction in being very good at their inglorious profession.
    That most software geeks now easily earn twice as much as the average laborer just sweetens their defiant embrace of the term.
    Note: Unlike the word nerd, which is always pejorative, geek often carries a positive connotation when used by one of the group. The use of the term by outsiders is considered insulting.
