Do you hide your nerdiness?

[Skulblaka]

They don't call me a nerd.........they just call me. Which is OK by me. Just make sure you got a brew and Jose ready(d)

They always call... always... even when you least expect them or want them to..

I dont hide it.
Theres nothing to hide.
Question is, should accountants hide their accountyness? Or mechanics hide their mechanicyness?
Geeks shouldnt hide their geekyness either.

I have a shirt that reads:
"I void warranties" It has pictures of various screws underneat

Another:
"When in doubt, try another hole" With various computer plugs

My favourite:
"I failed the Turing Test"

Nerdy and proud.

I where my nerd proudly but never try to shout it out !

Nerd: Nerd is a term that refers to a person who avidly pursues intellectual activities, technical or scientific endeavors, esoteric knowledge, or other obscure interests, rather than engaging in more social or conventional activities.

Yes, I can be classified as a nerd.

It's like your Mojo it's fickle and moves around, hence the phrase....."get in touch with your nerdy side" ! But you can't touch it too much cause you'll grow hair on your palms !

Couldn't hide it even if I bothered. Doesn't help that I'm the only IT support guy for a 24x7 Call Center staffed nearly entirely by married women (hell, most of the managers I report to are too); every single thing I do that they don't understand immediately is chalked up to "oh it's a nerd/guy thing". lol.

On the plus side I've picked up some nifty homekeeping tips. Like, I can now totally bake to save my life. Prior to this job I was strictly an instant noodles guy. Ha. I also know the emergency room number, interesting shopping places, what time school lets out, and I don't know who's kid left a frisbee in my car because I'm helping pick them up all the time.

Man... its like I'm already married. I thought this was a nerd thread.

 

[Pusspa]

i knew i was a nerd/geek when i laughed at reading this: If it wasn't for fences or walls, we wouldnt need Gates or Windows!

EDIT: And not to forget: There are 10 kinds of people in this world, those who understand binary, and those who don't.
