    Geek-O-Meter Test

    Found this on the net and thought I'd put it here for the geeks inside us:

    Geek-O-Meter

    Enjoy.

    You're pretty much a nerd, sure enough. So if that's what you wanted to hear, well done, ish. I mean you're a "kind-of" geek, but definitely not gifted. Either you're a hard worker who's as thick as two short sales executives, or you just can't be bothered with detail. Whichever, you're a loser.

    "You are practically computer-literate, in an almost real sense. This could be a good thing, or a bad thing, depending on whether you use your knowledge for good or for ill. Looking at your answers, I'd almost certainly say it was a bad thing."

    Although I'd prefer: "Your Schwartz is almost as big as mine!" That always had a nice ring to it

    "Is there any better place to be than just above half way? Yes, there is, Mr. Tediously Average! There's nothing so dull as middle-of-the-road mediocrity, and that's you, all right. You've either spent an unhealthy amount of time forcing your inadequate intellect to understand the little you know, or you've settled for knowing the minimum you could get away with, you lazy git."

    40 percent here...

    Though I was highly offended that Star Trek: Deep Space Nine wasn't among the selections for favorite TV show.

    Guess that makes me more of a geek.
