geek = someone that KNOWS they are a geek, whereas a nerd is someone that DOESN"T know they are? :D

It looks something like this:
[code]
nerd
|
| dork
|
|
geek
[/code]
All geeks are by nature nerds, but not all nerds are geeks.
Dorks have no hierarchical relation to either; there only happens to be a small amount of cultural overlap that has become an association in the minds of mundanes.
[B]pardon, but isn't it accepted that
geek = someone that KNOWS they are a geek [/B][/QUOTE]
Cyclical definitons are bad. :)
To me, a geek is someone who delights in things like technology, computers, science, or just general knowledge, but also has decent social skills.
A nerd is someone who is unhealthily obsessed with technology, computers, science or some other area of knowledge, and lacks basic social skills.

To me, a nerd is someone who is interested in learning and education, and who does well in school.
A geek is someone who usually fits all the requirements for nerd, but is also very interested in technology, computers especially.
To me, a nerd is someone who does what society expects of them, and not a whole lot else, whereas a geek is the unique type of person who doesn't care was society thinks. Social skills of all levels are possible for either type.

Dorks, LOL! Not heard that in a long time! Don't forget the bibble heads or the dipsticks.
Soz just finding it so funny that you guys are seriously talking about the difference between nerds and geeks. :) :)

If you're apologizing for finding this funny, you clearly have learned nothing about this place.
Begone!
