Nerd vs Geek, Geek vs Nerd? What about the dweebs, hipsters and spazzes of the world. Where is their infographic, when will hipsters feel safe to leave their coffee bars and bask in the noon day sun? When will dweebs leave their parents’ basements and shout they are people too? How about our friends the spazzes, will they ever stand up straight and be heard or will they be left behind the group of cool kids, plotting their revenge?

Aw, who cares, geeks and nerds rule or will rule the world when they get older so bow to them now while you still have a chance. Otherwise you will be working for them and they will remember you. Use this handy infographic to determine who are the geeks and who are the nerds and if you are lucky, maybe you are one yourself.

  1. This would’ve good if it focused on the semantics of nerd and geek, Instead it did a half-assed job and started stating the author’s opinions on what a nerd and geek are.

  2. This is “Nerds vs Hipsters”, not “Geeks.” Please make sure to get your terms right next time.

  3. The one underlying difference, geeks tend to fight back to stand their ground whilst nerds tend to retreat and plot revenge. When geeks and nerds work togethor wanne be jock straps and their failed cheer leaders are screwed.

  4. what about dork?

  5. OK ! I’ll definitely go for GEEK ! :) )

  6. This is silly. I was dubious about the infographic creating a distinction between hipsters and geeks, despite the obvious differences in the stereotypes, but when you get down to it Nerds and Geeks aren’t all that different! Especially not by the criteria listed above. What about people who are more inclined towards the humanities? In the end they’re just identifiers. YOU define what a geek or a nerd or a hipster is and YOU decide whether or not you feel as though you fall under that category not this… ill-conceived piece of schism-creating literature (if you can call it that). In the end the semantics are just a way of qualifying our enthusiasms and if we’re all enthusiastic about different things why not revel in it and share them with one another. Also, wikihow is not a source.
