Hey, Sky--
Oct. 8th, 2005 12:16 pmThe Nerd, Dork, or Geek? Test::
73% Nerd, 69% Geek, 17% 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 and Geek, earning you the title of: Modern, Cool Nerd. Nerds didn't use to be cool, but in the 90's that all changed. It used to be that, if you were a computer expert, you had to wear plaid or a pocket protector or suspenders or something that announced to the world that you couldn't quite fit in. Not anymore. Now, the intelligent and geeky have eked out for themselves a modicum of respect at the very least, and "geek is chic." The Modern, Cool Nerd is intelligent, knowledgable and always the person to call in a crisis (needing computer advice/an arcane bit of trivia knowledge). They are the one you want as your lifeline in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (or the one up there, winning the million bucks)!

So there you go.
The Buffy Test::
63% amorality, 63% passion, 45% spirituality, 45% selflessness
Faith is a powerhouse, and you might be, too. Passion-driven, down-to-earth, and willing to do what it takes to get things done and have a good time doing them, she is tough and sexy. Now, this test didn't rate your sexiness, but with these kinds of traits, that's probably true as well. You rate as one of the most dynamic characters of the Buffy universe.
THE 4-VARIABLE BUFFY PERSONALITY TEST
Well damn. I didn't expect that. I've been described as Buffy-like, and a lot of times, I can see that. I do the "bottle it all up and then punch it out in a long, hard slog" thing. I occasionally neglect the people I love the most. I can be hard to love, but when it comes down to it, I put it on the line. And I'm a natural leader.
Faith's one of those characters that can mean so many things to so many people. She's a powerhouse, she's emotionally wounded, she's looking to be just like the girl on a pedestal, she's a sexual personality, she's looking for redemption, she gives into her darker nature. She does the right thing, but it takes some time to get to that. Some have also called her a slut. I just say she knows what she wants. Regardess, she was one of the most hotly-debated and multi-faceted characters in the Buffyverse over the course of the seasons she appeared in. Everyone who looks at her sees her differently. That, I can definitely relate to.

Xander Harris
45% amorality, 81% passion, 54% spirituality, 72% selflessness
Xander. Loyal, brave, true and passionate. Perhaps the best friend a person could have, always willing to jump into the frey to help out his buddies.
Also, one of the most popular characters in the Buffy universe.

Memes are addictive, and I blame you.

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 less than half in all three, earning you the title of: Joe Normal.
This is not to say that you don't have some Nerd, Geek or Dork inside of you--we all do, and you can see the percentages you have right above. This is just to say that none of those qualities stand out so much as to define you. Sure, you enjoy an episode of Star Trek now and again, and yeah, you kinda enjoyed a few classes back in the day. And, once in a while, you stumble while walking down the street even though there was nothing there to cause you to trip. But, for the most part, you look and act fairly typically, and aren't much of an outcast.
I'd say there's a fair chance someone asked you to take this test. In any event, fairly normal.
Congratulations!
I also recieved Xander Harris on the Buffy meme.
