When you hear the term “Geek” what do you think of? If you’re a self-proclaimed Geek perhaps you think of a highly intelligent person who enjoys some of the less mainstream entertainment in modern society. Perhaps you think of someone who is good with computers or who always has the latest technology. Maybe you just think of someone who likes to wear black t-shirts with sarcastic sayings on them.
If you’re not one of the Chosen, though, you might have a different view of our society. You might see Geeks as being socially awkward, unwashed, and out of shape losers who live in their mothers basement and work in a comic book store. Society, on the whole, doesn’t paint a very pretty picture of Geeks as a general rule.
