    Same here. Well, I do play on the computer, but not that much. Anyway, this test has raised the question: Is nerdiness a relative or absolute term? The test said that I answered the questions nerdier than 82% of those who took the test. It means just that. To them, I'm a nerd. But to the other 18%, I'm probably not a nerd - I probably don't live up to it. So, how does is one's nerdiness rated in real life? My money is on relative rates. :) -- My name in Katakana is ヨルゲン.

    I think that test is not all that real. (I mean to invite that much thought on your part). Some of the other tests are also fun. I'm wasting time here on a slow afternoon doing them. Take the one on longlivety, it gives you high numbers and makes you feel good :) "One of the Georges," said Psmith, "I forget which, once said that a certain number of hours' sleep a day--I cannot recall for the moment how many--made a man something, which for the time being has slipped my memory."

        Apparently I have too many friends and not enough graphing calculators. :laugh: Anna :rose: Riverblade Ltd - Software Consultancy Services Anna's Place | Tears and Laughter "Be yourself - not what others think you should be" - Marcia Graesch "Anna's just a sexy-looking lesbian tart" - A friend, trying to wind me up.

          89 - though I hang out with friends at the pub on friday (physicians, lawyers, and the like- no nerd in sight :omg: ), I didn't notice her elf ears, and really don't care about pocket calculators. Why me?

                          5% scored higher (more nerdy), and 95% scored lower (less nerdy). What does this mean? Your nerdiness is: All hail the monstrous nerd. You are by far the SUPREME NERD GOD!!!
