    let's start with nerd, nerds are usually associate with school obsess people, generally those are call nerds, they might not be "smart" or "knowledable" they're just obsess with school.

    geeks is a term that generally describes people with addiction/obsession, normally it's associate with people who's obsess with technology, but the term is define by those that have some sort of addiction, you can call a chain smoker a geek but generally it's not associated by society.

    a dork is someone who's "clumssy" and get himself in weird situation offten, someone who's clueless about stuff is also classify as a dork, it's more likeable than geeks/nerds.

    I am evenly spread. 1/3 geek, 1/3 nerd and 1/3 dork. Not much of a choice.... Can I have other choices?
