When you were in school, you probably knew of a geek or two; in fact, that geek may have been you!
While being a geek may not have been the coolest thing back in your school days, today, things have changed. Thanks to shows like “The Big Bang Theory”, being geeky is actually pretty cool.
If you’ve been hiding your inner geeky-ness, embrace it and show the world how proud you are to be a geek!
Types of Geeks
The world has changed for geeks in a big way. Not only is it pretty cool to be a geek, but there are also so many different types of geeks. Some of the most common types include:
- The Apple Geek – The person who is obsessed with all things Apple: iPads, iPods, iPhones… you get the idea.
- The Music Geek: The person who is beyond obsessed with music.
- The Book Geek: This type of geek is pretty self-explanatory and it isn’t exactly new, but it is certainly more popular today.
- Star Wars Geek: If you carry around a light saber and you can recite every line to every episode of Star Wars, well then, you are a Star Wars geek.
- Comic Book Geek: Do you know every detail of Batman? Do you have a collection of comic books that nobody is allowed to touch? Yep, you’re a comic book geek, alright.
While these are some of the most common types of geeks, there are so many more. Basically, if you are uber into anything – fashion, cars, movies, anything at all – you’re a geek. You should be proud of your geeky-ness. Shout it from the roof tops and celebrate it! And what better way to celebrate being a geek than with a cake!
