Geeks, nerds, or dorks?

Posted on August 12th, 2008

Today’s English lesson: Are the people in this video geeks, nerds, or dorks?

Answer: They are geeks who are not ashamed of appearing dorky, if it will further their nerdy loves.

(Asbestos: I love this video. I think it ought to be shown right next to the Sesame Street song about how a bill becomes law.) [Tags: geeks nerds physics cern ]

    To qualify myself as one of the three, the most popular children’s song about how a bill becomes a law is “I’m Just a Bill”, by Schoolhouse Rock.

    Unfortunately, Fox in its infinite wisdom pulled the Simpson’s parody off of YouTube because, well, you know, it would have cost …. um, it would have hurt … um … because Fox has its head up its ass.
