heirarchy of nerdiness

[anotheranon]

I'm pretty sure the correct conjugation is I am eccentric, you are geeky, they are losers....

Remarkably incomplete, though - I mean, how do, say, SCA folk view their geekiness as related, to, say, Amateur Sci Fi artists who can't get breasts right? To read this chart you'd think they are of equal geekiness, but is that really so?

It gives me pause that everyone thinks they're better than furries. I mean, I don't get furrydom (furry-ness?), but I figure they're hurting no one, and are far less frightening than ~50 year old anime fans who don't [ahem] costume to body type....

Enough with this rating, I say! Geeks, embrace your geekiness! Write fanfic with a new fury! Game with greater passion! And one can never have too many replica swords (unless they take up space of operational swords)...

Um.... Does it mean anything if I tell you that I fit into a whole bunch of those categories??????? Except the furries, thank doG!!!!

Oh, I fit into a bunch of these as well! I think my geek level falls somewhere in the middle - not as far gone as furry anime Trekkies who write MaryJane slash, but hardcore sci-fi authors can still look down their noses at me :P

I don't think they count as furries if they're not making out - - :p

But the thought of erotic Rancor fic - - the mind boggles - - 8O

What about Logan and Creed... do they count as Furries? *innocent look*
