Thankfulness Week - Day 3
For this hump-day edition of Thankfulness Week posts, I thought I'd send some love to a group of people who don't, traditionally, get a lot of humpy goodness. (At least, not with other people.) I speak, my friends, of nerds.
First, there was the Nerd Test, a silly web quiz that tested one's nerdiness. I took the test, and scored pretty darn nerdy.
But then Nerd Test 2.0 came along, promising even more nerdy goodness. And even more categories in which to scientifically (ha!) plot one's nerdiness. And so I took the test:
I'm thankful, today, for nerds. And for silly web quizzes. And for silly web quizzes about nerdiness, because they feed my Cool Nerd God ego. And there's nothing wrong with that.
So, my friends, how nerdy are you?

Hmm. I'm a light-weight nerd (and only 79% for history/lit--embarrassing!)

I, too, was told I am a light-weight nerd.
Most distressingly, the all-knowing and infallible scoring module wrongly insisted I had taken the test before and was not a unique visitor whose results deserved to be tabulated among the results achieved by real people. As a consequence, the collective data are now tainted by the absence of my light-weighty results.

I am a Slightly Dorky Nerd God. Fear me. The tech questions knocked the score down to "slightly," I think.
Hereabouts we have Other People Who Cook to be grateful for. I've escaped the kitchen to browse the interweb, which should increase my nerd score all by itself.
