Geeks: Open Season

In recent years being called a geek has lessened from an insult to a "title". A nerd is more of a derogatory term. But it's really splitting hairs. I don't really care if someone calls me a geek or nerd or a computer guy or whatever. Expecting others (i.e. non-geeks) to be able to differential between the two is quite nerdy. Very Happy

I bet you didn't expect this much rambling on this joke. You can tell when no one is hunting or fishing or seasons are closed...

I neither dislike nor like nerds or geeks. But then again...Here I am on a site that is called huntingNUT. Soooo...What does that make me?

I've been called a lot worse than "geek" or "nerd"...

If getting called a nerd or geek is the worst thing going on in your world I would say that's a pretty good world. Most of the time when I get called something it's usually in conjunction with a string of obscenities.

What is "disturbing" is that hunterjoe21 got his teaching certificate... Very Happy

unnormal [according to the internet] is a word meaning "not normal"...Couldn't find it in my dictionary though...Maybe the Canadian dictionary has it... Very Happy

It's not in the Canadian edition either .............. but it may be in the Greek translation.

I bet teaching certificates are possibly as hard/harder to get than most any "other work related certificate".

That is when you respond with your own obscenities. Wink
