35.7002 % -- Major Geek. Well I AM programming a multiple choice test in python right now while posting on a linux forum and listening to internet radio with a cup of coffee sitting next to my computer, and I have a fantasy fanfiction story opened in a firefox tab, and I am downloading an episode of a star trek fan show, so I think that's extually low :lolflag:

Yes, all at the same time. Also look at my signature xD. Let's see who knows who said that to Eragon :)

BTW, you simply HAVE to read that story. It's great! :arrow: http://fanfiction.shurtugal.com/viewstory.php?sid=1547 :)

13% - Geekish tendencies. I knew I had them, but I think I was in denial.
I must had bonus points for saying that I wanted Scully, Willow, Buffy and Amidala. What a dumb question, who wouldn't like to meet those girls? Never watched a full Star Wars film though. But don't need to, to know who Natalie Portman is. That girl has major acting skills (Cof Cof). Well, they all do! Ahahah

I don't think so, so I took the nerd test at
http://www.nerdtests.com/ft_nq.php
42% scored higher (more nerdy),
1% scored the same, and
57% scored lower (less nerdy).
What does this mean? My nerdiness is:
"Somewhat nerdy. I mean face it, you are nerdier than about half the test takers."

The question proposed to deep thought what is the meaning to life universe and everything? after along time it came to the conclusion that the answer is 42. when they asked why 42 to she simply replied you asked the wrong question. So they built earth to figure out what the question was. but then it was destroyed.

I took this quiz back about 6 months ago, I think I got 1% percent geekier if I remember correctly.
Although I think this is more of a nerd test than a geek test, since there were so many video game/star trek/comic book questions in there. And since I am not a big fan of star trek, and I don't care much for comic books, I got a lower score.

Dang.
