Nerd/Geek/Dork

Beat: Miscellany — Beau @ 12:55

The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test

Pure Nerd
56 % Nerd, 47% Geek, 0% Dork

For The Record:

A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.

A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.

A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.

You scored better than half in Nerd, earning you the title of: Pure Nerd.

The times, they are a-changing. It used to be that being exceptionally smart led to being unpopular, which would ultimately lead to picking up all of the traits and tendences associated with the “dork.” No-longer. Being smart isn’t as socially crippling as it once was, and even more so as you get older: eventually being a Pure Nerd will likely be replaced with the following label: Purely Successful.

Congratulations!

I feel vindicated.

Lucas Agrees to Write ‘Star Wars’ TV Series

Star Wars creator George Lucas has agreed to write a 100-episode TV series of the classic sci-fi epic.

The series will focus on the missing years between Revenge of the Sith and the original Star Wars movie, released in 1977.

Producer Rick McCullum said at Monday night’s Empire Awards, “We’re very excited–we just got confirmation George Lucas has committed to writing the Star Wars TV series.

“I guess this is the news all fans have been waiting to hear.”

Yeah, because if there’s one thing the last three (well, four) movies got right, it was the writing …

  • In related news: Indy 4 script completed. Well, Harrison Ford says it’s ready, because George Lucas turned in a final script. The good news is that Steven Spielberg is doing a rewrite before the cameras start rolling. Me, I’m hoping for the McCarthy era, Soviet thugs and Rachel McAdams as a university colleague of Dr. Jones.
