Ever wonder if you are properly using the terms: geek v. need v. dork? Dan McMillian does a great job explaining the differences & uses a venn diagram for you visual learners.

I always told my friends that geeks are nerds with social skills XD his description was spot-on to what I've been telling people for years. As a software engineer and giant computer geek, I make it a point to educate people on the difference. Just like this guy said, I'm smart, I get obsessed with stuff, but I also have good social awareness. Another analogy I use is that geeks prefer Star Trek and nerds prefer Star Wars. In my mind, geeks geek out about all the cool theoretical physics and tech that's on Star Trek, while nerds nerd out about the specs of the Millennial Falcon.

I love this. My personal definitions have always been that a Nerd can figure out how fast the TOS Enterprise can get from colonies at Rigel, to Aldebaran, to Mintaka, then back to Rigel while traveling at warp 5.4. A Geek will think that information can be used to pick someone up at a bar. A Dork knows that knowledge won't get them a date, but they hang around because someone /might/ ask. It could happen.

And the Stalker silently watches for their next victim at the bar while blending in with the nerds, dorks, and geeks so they don’t get noticed.

Bully says "What do you call someone who knows the difference?" and the Nerd answers "Why that would be a Dork of course... Ooh, your right, I'm a Dork not a Nerd, thank you."

I have never seen the terms used in this manner. If anything, the three sections ARE the nerd/geek/dork aspects all by themselves, no overlap. Nerd is the IQ; the book smarts. You get called a nerd for studying academics and taking interest in it. Because children only want to play, bully, and obsess over tiktok Geeks are the obsessed, the ones who put emphasis on trivia for generally unimportant things like pop culture. These are the star wars geeks, or whatever fandom geeks, etc. Heck, you can even be a sports geek (though if you're a number crunchy statistics kind of fan, it's more of a sports nerd at that point) People get called dorks for being socially awkward. You can be a nerd AND a dork if you're a socially awkward nerd, but on the flip side, if you're not socially awkward while being a nerd, you can be a nerd in a way that isn't necessarily a stigma. It's rare to have a sports dork, because being on a team or following a team usually has a certain level of social acceptance built into it. It's harder to be a geek without also being a dork, because of the obsession over generally unimportant trivia, but proper social/hobby balance can mitigate that issue. There are also fandoms where the obsession with the trivia ends up carrying a certain level of academic requirement /interest to the field, such as star trek, hence why you sometimes still get Star Trek Nerds alongside Star Trek Geeks. Now, there ARE a bunch of people who, when using these terms as insults, uses them completely interchangeably, but that's usually dumb kids who don't know better and wouldn't care if they did. They're just trying to insult someone, the details are unimportant. Just because you've heard the term used incorrectly doesn't mean that use is correct.

I feel you on that. Not sure if I'm on the spectrum, but I have ADHD and I fit all 3. My obsessions are mostly hyperfixations though and thus fleeting. It's sad, honestly, to be so obsessively interested in something only to suddenly not care anymore, and just around the time when people start noticing you liked that thing. Example: I was obsessed with The Wizard of Oz for like a year and a half as a kid, and my mom got me the DVD the birthday about 3 months after I stopped liking it.

@@souventudubanned That doesn't really matter. I wrote Howard as the stalker since he's the most sex-obsessed of the group and typically the least educated overall. There's no doubt he's intelligent, just not as achieved as the others. Raj is the dork since while he has obsessions, his are more normal than the others. He was the only one who wanted to sell a Lord of the Rings ring from the actual films in order to buy a jetski, showing he's less obsessed with the franchise than the others. Leonard is the geek since he's the only person who has an otherwise easy time interacting with girls and super-famous celebrities. He's overcome most of his social anxiety and actually talks like a normal person to almost everyone he meets. Sheldon is winning in every category. He has the highest IQ, the biggest obsession with all his goals and fandoms he's in, and he gets more unexpected thoughts from new people he talks to. It doesn't matter that he's more socially awkward than Howard overall since he can be more of a nerd than Howard is in either category. Sorry for this comment being as long as it is. Just wanted to summarize my original comment.

People keep commenting about the relation between nerd and stalker but it makes sense! Stalkers often lack self awareness, which is a sign of intelligence. If one is intelligent enough to realize their own social awkwardness, they usually end up in smaller knit social circles of fellow geeks, nerds, and dorks to fulfill their inherent need for social interaction. Stalkers are the rarest form of outcast because it's that much rarer for a dumb person to have the attention span to stay obsessed with any single person or thing for too long. Usually they just get distracted by the next shiny thing that catches their attention.

I'll never forget the time a girl called me a "dweeb" because i wouldnt hook up with her. long story short, the reason i denied her was simple: i knew her; I'd known her for years and she was as much like a sister as anyone could be. also, i knew how spiteful and vindictive she was and that she was just pretending to like me so that she could break my friend's heart after she went and told him about us. so, i guess I'm a freakin dweeb then 🤣🤣🤣
